Stay strong in your resolve.

The NYT, MSNBC and others have been bending over backwards to trivialize Sanders and, more recently, brainwash voters that his "surge" is unquestionably only a temporary flash in the pan.

Among the latest in a long series of blatant hit pieces from the once respectable and therefore once highly respected New York Times.

Do not allow these transparent attempts to create self-fulfilling prophesies discourage you or deter you.

It ain't over till the fat tenor or soprano sings. Or, as Yogi Berra observed, "It ain't over till it's over."

Stay strong in your resolve.

That is all.

pretty amusing. It is sorta sweet that they care enough to take the time to try and smother the campaign.
What is happening for me is that there really are clubs that I do not care to join, because I find the club distasteful.
