This was awesome information--just what I'm looking for. I think you've nailed it in terms of a "success breeds success" strategy in terms of New Hampshire and Iowa. I'll be doing my part in SE Pennsylvania to get the word out. As you put it so well, Hillary has had decades to get her name out, while Bernie has months.

Thanks again, Sabrina!

PS: what I'd LOVE to see NOW are Hollywood buys of ads defusing the term "socialism" zazen Aug 2015 #3
