I wish you and my father, Roger Tubby, could have met. You'd have liked one another. He ran "inside the Blue Line" and as far as Watertown in NYS for Congress in 1974. He did very well for a Democrat in such a Republican stronghold, losing by only a few percentage points. He lamented he hadn't made it to just a few more factory openings, that that might have made the difference.

We're into March, with Bernie and the rest of us having done well on Super Tuesday. Today, my husband and I will be cheering, mingling and energizing at a Bernie rally in Portland, Maine.

Marching onward!
