Here is something for Democrats to think about:
Sanders beats Cruz, and Sanders beats Trump in a general election matchup. He beats both with a wider margin than Hillary.
And he does so without Hillary's 'litany of scandal'.
This is a no brainer!

I wrote an email to Tom Hayden after I read his excellent piece in the Nation, "Exit Strategies for Afghanistan and Iraq." My thinking was that he was right, of course, but that people would have to take to the streets for this war to end.

He replied that that was true enough, but that "getting people into the streets is a somewhat magical thing, unpredictable." And then I started thinking about the faces on the people that I see in the streets already ...

My intrepid colleague at the Michigan Messenger, Eartha Jane Melzer, has a story out this morning about the big Tittabawassee River Walleye Festival in Michigan.

It's an annual event organized by the Lion's Club -- and sponsored by Dow Chemical. Thousands of anglers will wet their lines in the Tittabawassee, hoping catch the big one. The thing is, Dow Chemical's plant up river had been dumping Dioxin (the Love Canal super toxin) in the Tittabawassee for about a hundred years...

Maybe...

Anyway, this is the way things should turn out.

A Minnesota Republican State Rep from the suburbs had ventured into an alien district -- on the other side of the tracks -- on a sort of listening tour. Mostly he heard things like this, from a little girl: "I’m tired of seeing my friends get shot."

The Rep. was handing out wooden nickels as he passed among the walking wounded, and at some point he said something like, "Here, use these to plug up your bullet holes."
