I bet you didn\u2019t know, right?  You did?!!?  Dang!!  And I thought it was a surprise, based on Hillary\u2019s victorious concession speech.  One might think she won.  In a very funny way, she did, but first let\u2019s celebrate Bernie’s win!  We were hoping for a spread in the teens, but Bernie pulled off a virtual landslide. a twenty-one point spread!<\/font><\/p>\n

New Hampshire resoundingly rejected the two major party\u2019s mainstream candidates in its presidential primary Tuesday, with Bernie Sanders decisively beating Hillary Clinton on the Democratic ticket and Donald Trump overwhelming a pack of governors and U.S. senators who cannot seem to stop him.<\/p>\n

Sanders\u2019 21-point<\/a> victory over Clinton, though not unexpected after surging in recent polls, was a monumental achievement for a candidate who started out with less than 5 percent of the vote (trailing by 44 percent at one point last year) and calling for a revolution to fundamentally address economic and political inequality.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe won because we harnessed the energy and the excitement that the Democratic Party will need to succeed in November,\u201d Sanders said. \u201cWhat the people here have said is that given the enormous crises facing our country, it is just too late for the same old, same old establishment politics and establishment economics: the people want real change.\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
