1. Really barnstorming the state

[HerbChestnut]

2. This is exactly what he needs to be doing.

If he wins Iowa, he wins New Hampshire. If he wins both, Nevada is in play. If he wins those three, there's a shot at South Carolina.

3. Yes indeed

That is a heavy schedule. But necessary.

And you are correct on Nevada in play if he gets NH--which he should. It was mentioned in this forum before Christmas what you just stated but there would be a domino effect from Iowa and NH.

I hope that the case.

And if Bernie has "good feeling" about Iowa, then perhaps its a sign he will get the nomination. I pray that is the case.

If he wins Iowa I will drink heavily anyway.
