Related: About this forumHe Might Win Iowa. But Don't Ask Bernie Sanders How He's Feeling.
Bernie Sanders could be on the verge of a remarkable personal and professional vindication. Is he feeling it? "Sure."
IOWA CITY, Iowa Was he in a better mood than usual?
A campaign spokesperson, Mike Casca, shrugged: not particularly, no.
There were hints, at least, to the contrary. Maybe.
In Iowa City, after he cut in on his wife Janes speech at a coffee shop, the two wrestled flirtatiously over the microphone: Im gonna hear about this for years, he said. In Cedar Rapids, he scanned the crowd outside a campaigns field office, pointing with delight at seven supporters who had mounted a large pile of snow for a better view.
