A great thing, indeed.

Joe Trippi...

"Look, the guy led on every single issue out there, whether it was poverty, the economy, global warming, or universal health care. He moved the progressive agenda much further than any other candidate -- so much so that both Clinton and Obama adopted a lot of his language and agenda. Which is a great thing to have done."

Thanks, John.

The remaining contestants have a few days to convince me who's the best to turn that language into action. If my caucus convened today, I'd sign in uncommitted.

Open minded, though.
