Every time I hear Bernie's voice, I think of you and our other New England brothers and sisters ... His accent is also reminiscent of JFK ...

Bernie is definitely representing the Northeastern Liberal mindset ...

So happy that fella is in there ... I am fucking thrilled ...

Welcome, old man ...

I left the NYC area in the mid 60's, and my old New Yorker accent is largely gone, replaced by the West Coast dialect, which means I have almost zero accent now ... Just a few words still have that Brooklyn brogue underneath (Shut da cah doah?)

When I listen to Bernie speak, I hear New England, but it is really going to be a mixed bag for him as it is for everybody ... If you stay in one place long enough, your vocal patterns after going to change over time ...

I think Bernie's ideas sounds great in any accent!

In any case, with much mutual respect > Go Yanks!

I've been hanging out with this really cool young chick, so I'm not as plugged in as I used to be.

She's stylish, too.

And that red nose...!

It's a nice, cozy, comfortable space here...GD has been a War Zone as of late.

I look forward to your thoughts.

We have a pot-luck dinner every Wednesday and Friday is karaoke night. Also, you have to jiggle the handle after you flush or else the damned thing never stops running.

Bernie is on fire right now! His poll numbers are climbing, the crowds coming to see him are amazing. He has had THE largest turnout at a single event for ANY candidate in Iowa this year! The twittersphere and reddit are bursting with proBernie messages!

Jane Fonda is sayin' "Now wait just a damned minute! That's MY line!"

I think she and Bernie are about the same age, but who's cuter?
