1. Kick Ass!!!!!

[Rainscents]

2. Oh yea!!!

People knows good thing when they see one!!!

[Greeby]

3. (S)? Thought it would be I for Independent?

Or are they taking the fact that Bernie's a socialist and using it as a dirty word? :shrug:

[nickshepDEM]

4. I just caught that... I found the new poll on a conservative MD blog

I visit. Hence, the (S) = Socialist.

[BrklynLiberal]

5. The article refers to him as an Independent, just like Jeffords

[salin]

10. Does Bernie belong officially to an organized Socialist Party?

or is he a self-declared Socialist - but technically not affiliated with a specific (organized) political party and thus for official designation is I (Independent = not affiliated with a specific (organized) party.)

6. WOW!!!! This is GREAT! I hope to see a lot more like this before Novembe

I think it's possible too! Pubs are hanging themselves right now, and it looks like it's going to get a lot worse before it ever gets any better!

12. Opposition candidates to Repubs only need an (NR) by their name.

"Not Republican"

13. Outstanding

Props to Vermont.

No surprise that Sanders is leading; the surprise is the margin. 70% is a real mandate, unlike the Jeff Gannon type. :)
