Bernie Sanders Busting through retail politics!

The venues are too small. The people trying to get in don't care. Those that do, and still cannot hear, do not care. They say they just had to be there!

The Bernie Store server is overloaded. People have to keep trying to get into the cue, to purchase.

Everything is up close and personal in IA, but for Bernie, there is not enough room!

BERNIE IS BIG! He is throwing off balance the way they are used to doing things. Too many are coming to see him.

Because it's a campaign, these types of growing pains are SUCCESS!

Hillary can still go into a diner and sit in a booth. Some here say soon she won't be able to either. Bernie just arrived. Iowa is there to greet him. I love it.

GO BERNIE!

That goes for O'Malley, too. I'll be happy with either.

6. Every stop has the crowd growing...

And growing rapidly!

I'll bet his staff is already scrambling to look for larger venues.

I'm waiting for my Bernie swag as well!

I mean I've become so... Well I have a thing with disappointment and have become very cynical and pessimist. But your post is really encouraging. Thank you.

11. It's not just in Iowa it's happening.

10:00 am Minneapolis Sanders rally had an overfull of many hundreds and Bernie was on FIRE.

The air was ELECTRIC.

15. I'll wait to see how Bernie does in the first

primaries.

It's the only measure that counts. Everything else is fluff and bluster.

18. Kucinich was fluff and bluster, but not Bernie

I remember no overflowing crowds for Kucinich. I remember an attempted "money bomb" that bombed. Bernie is raising money like nobody's business from average $40 donations, and packing 'em in at events. I see no fluff and bluster here.

Does that mean all the polls with Hillary having a lead are also fluff?

22. Right, like the latest poll from Iowa

showing Hillary way out in front of Bernie.

57% vs 16% I believe.

23. So...

You half answered my question as a means to just reprint the poll you seemed to be asserting doesnt matter?

Wow, such depth of discussion and command of the language.
