I'm really not savvy enough to figure out how to do a screen capture on this mo-chine. However, there's a theme running around the interwebz today from the Hill People that, to paraphrase, "If it weren't for those damn Independents, we would have killed in Michigan!". So, the Big Tent folks are now scurrying to advocate closed primaries in every state from here on out.
Markos has stolen a page from Ronald Reagan and promulgated an 11th Commandment for Democrats. Reagan's 11th Commandment was, "thou shalt not speak ill of any other Republican." In the case of Markos it's "thou shalt not criticize Hillary Clinton." He did leave a little wiggle room, however -- constructive criticism is allowed. Even though this isn't the Daily Hillary I take Markos's admonition against gratuitous anti-Hillaryism
Here's a concept: people don't like being told who they can support and who not to support.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz has become nothing more than a petty dictator and she is harming the Democratic Party.

From The Guardian:
Vermont senator had trailed in polls by more than 20 points but opposition to free trade and growing African American support won votes in rust-belt state
Bernie Sanders pulled off his biggest win of the Democratic presidential race on Tuesday, defeating Hillary Clinton in the Michigan primary on a night which also confirmed strong anti-establishment support for Donald Trump in the battle for the Republican nomination.
In an industrial state hit hard by the decline of manufacturing, the Vermont senator’s consistent opposition to free trade deals appears to have been a decisive factor, but he also showed signs of weakening Clinton’s dominance among African American voters.

Meghan Ross, Senior Associate Editor of Pharmacy Times, has written a call for Pharmacists to educate themselves on the "unique needs" of transgender patients: 5 Ways Pharmacists Can Help Transgender Patients
Transgender patients have unique health needs, but few health care professionals have received adequate training on how to best care for these patients.
--Ross
Bryan Bishop, PharmD, BCPS, clinical assistant professor at the University of Toledo College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, recently wrote about pharmacotherapy considerations in the management of transgender patients in Pharmacotherapy.
Not being a peruser of that no-doubt fine journal, I'm glad Ms. Ross is.
You've probably read the Philip K. Dick book, Minority Report, or saw the hit movie of the same name. He wrote it in 1956. I seriously doubt that he expected something like it to become a reality.
