(34,661 posts)Really like Mr. Sanders,but,as a old DFLer,reality will clear my foggy brain and we can see a National Trend developing. Now,if the DNC will put money into Congressional Races and go 50 State Strategy,we will see some real results. Bernie is the best thing going,people want real change and not some hookie pookie crap.

(34,661 posts)Like you,after the Delegate Count hit the DU this AM,it is not over and things could go to Sanders and it is Ms.Clinton's to loose.
Hopefully you DFLers can clean out District 6.

(146,262 posts)CD-6 is probably a long shot, but District 2 is a possibility.

(34,661 posts)South Eastern is so controlled by the Conservative Germanic ideals. But,they sure do like their Casino's.

(146,262 posts)run again, so that district's seat is open. That gives us an excellent opportunity, and the demographics of the district have changed somewhat. I don't know yet who's considering running on the DFL side.
