The Bern has to be a wave, and we need to spread the word of it to all the states so that people will ride it. Even a monumental win in NH won't do us the good that the Sanders campaign catching on in states down the road will.
Thankfully Sanders has a message that doesn't have to be altered, state to state. So he can stand up in NH and be talking to the whole country.
