He 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 Jane’s speech at a coffee shop, the two wrestled flirtatiously over the microphone: “I’m gonna hear about this for years,” he said. In Cedar Rapids, he scanned the crowd outside a campaign’s field office, pointing with delight at seven supporters who had mounted a large pile of snow for a better view. “There’s even people up on the snow bank!” And in Grinnell, he conducted his own “scientific poll” of the crowd: “All those who think our campaign is the strongest to beat Trump, raise your hand...”

OMD! May be one of the funniest things I've ever read!

I'm really glad you posted this article, though. I admit that I was wondering if Bernie might be feeling some vindication after all the lies and crap he's had to put up with. If this article assesses him correctly, he doesn't even notice the attacks. Completely oblivious.

Focus. It's all about focus. It's an incredibly hard thing to do, yet Bernie's got it down.
