Bernie coming so closein MA is miraculous, and a stunning achievement. I am really, really proud of what Bernie’s done in this state. 

He far exceeded Obama's performance here 8 years ago, one of the best campaigns of all time, and unlike the President, Bernie had to go up against the entire establishment. He didn’t have Ted Kennedy on his side. He didn’t have Deval Patrick on his side. In fact, Bernie was able to achieve this amazing result without almost any elected official’s endorsement. 

The media may spin what Bernie Sanders has done here differently, but it is an amazing grassroots effort, from one of the biggest underdog campaigns of all time.
