  1. We have the power.

    Even if Hillary Clinton defends the light-hearted remarks [Click] of Madeline Albright [Click] and Gloria Steinem [Click] I doubt that denigration by such fossils is likely to drive young women to vote for HRC.

    1. Glad you did, Bill; I rather liked it myself. (I must admit that I had to ask Wikipedia just where The Quad Cities is/are.)

    2. One of the things I specially liked was that it gave Hilary her due while explaining why, nevertheless, Bernie was the better choice.

  3. How Gilded Ages End [Click] By Paul Starr in the Spring 2015 issue of American Prospect. There is some interesting stuff about the end of the Gilded Age, and a LOT of discussion about the overwhelming effect of big-money contributions to candidates. But the author didn't seem even to suspect anything like Bernie's fundraising system.
