He's invading the red states! With a Progressive, Dem message and thousands show up to cheer him on. He's shattering the lie we have been told that we must elect Third Wayers in Red States because no one will vote for a Progressive Dem'.

Well, there goes that argument.

I've been in hotel ballrooms dozens, if not hundreds of times. A hotel isn't going to advertise... George II Jul 2015 #10
