Hill may get union endorsements from the corrupt upper echelons of leadership, but Bernie's heart is with the people.

Obama has passed on to Bernie those never used "..comfortable walking shoes" that he told us he would use "...to walk the picket lines" when he was campaigning in 2007.

Good for Bernie! Both MSNBC and CNN covered it at the Noon Shows.
