I regret that the caucuses weren't more decisive; but Iowa seldom is.

On the other hand, it makes for great theater. So we get to live with uncertainty for a few more weeks.

I think Bernie's Revolution will be the greatest story since...well, there hasn't been anything like it in our history. And I'm hoping for a happy ending for this nation.

With NH apparently in the bag, that makes 1.5 to 0.5, a good start!

Clinton spent 13,000,000 more than Sanders for 5 more delegates... and 7 precincts were decided by coin toss... this after the first polls showed her ahead by 40+% and while getting 90% of media attention. Clinton has now lost her momentum, and her dominance of the media - to a large degree - and spent 90% of the money she raised all last summer to do it.

Any way you slice it Sanders was the real winner.
