Tom immediately reached out and made Keith his deputy chair and now he's teaming up with Bernie. He's not wasting any time playing the blame game, instead he's focusing on what we did wrong and what we can do differently next time. It's stupid to keep the intraparty skirmishes going and to keep attacking people who are allies. Everyone needs to move on like Tom and Bernie.

I'm more optimistic than I have been in a long time.

Go Bernie and Tom! Get on board or get left behind!
