What's true is that Bernie knows he has to be careful and choose his moments. And as an FYI, Bernie's far and away not the only member of Congress listening to Stephanie now. Frankly, I think Stephanie's patient, determined, and now ever-accelerating rise during the past few years is the perfect lesson for us all in understanding how to do this. If you don't think that's what's happening, then you know a lot less about what she's doing than you think you do.
