I did a volunteer stint at the local Dem office today, which I do several times a month and one of the PTB who run the place, all of them for Hillary, said to me that it was hard to be enthusiastic about the election without choices. Duh, Bernie is a choice, but I didn't utter that out loud because it suddenly struck me that something is brewing and I might learn more by listening rather than talking. They do have direct lines and information all the way to Washington.
