even though as a Sanders primary voter I've only been like 70-30 in favor of Bernie vs. Hillary. What a refreshing presence in a generally not-so-positive situation!

kid gloves.

And Rachel - that was a thing of beauty.
Jane took her off her high horse in a matter of seconds, and then showered her with admiration at the end.

She really is Bernie's secret weapon. The campaign needs to get her out there more often.

I'm so impressed on how she adapts to any situation and handles business. With this interview I can see why Bernie has been so successful!

Zing! She sweetly shut Rachel up about that.

Smooth as silk.

I have a feeling it was cut short as they weren't going to get anything and Jane was making to much sense.

She was excellent in this clip. Rachel did let her talk and I acknowledge that. Jane controlled the spin. What a smart lady. Go Jane!

Those questions were more suited for the candidate -- not the spouse -- in order to get a sound bite Hillary could use against Bernie.

How low can we go for Hill ...

Luckily, Jane is just as much an honorable hearted straight-shooter as Bernie. Jane did good!
