1. Whenever Hillary says the right thing about trade, the Washington Post just slams her.

Whenever Hillary says the right thing about trade, the Washington Post just slams her. It's unbelievable. I met with the Post editorial board back in about November or December, and I said, kind of joking with them, "Do you have a full-time person, every time Hillary says anything that you don't like on trade, you like automatically write an editorial within 24 hours?" They kind of laughed and said, "Yeah, we have a full-time person on it." But the newspapers – I got one newspaper endorsement in the state of the big nine papers. It was the only paper that's been a bit more even-handed on trade…. They're gonna get slapped around by the newspapers for this. Particularly Hillary… Hillary's clearly moved way away from the old Clinton position, but the newspapers want to slap her every time she speaks out about that. Because they think it's all for political reasons. I really don't. I think that both of them genuinely see the problems of globalization. I think they understand that, I don't think their solutions are quite strong enough yet – either of them. But I think they're on the way and they're getting close, and I think we'll see more of that kind of growth as they focus on these kinds of issues in the Midwest now.

3. I was just surprised how much this article was about Sherrod Brown,

his issue of trade, and really noone, nothing else. He paid lip service to economic populism, or perhaps the writer missed the central point about what he saying. And then again, maybe just his way of deflecting time until the primary is over....

4. Sherrod had the message

but, more importantly, Sherrod had the grassroots - that he has worked years at developing. I can't tell you how many people voted for him because they liked him. A republican that worked at a bank that he visited, a republican businessman in Lorain County - Independents that heard him on the Cleveland talk radio shows for years....

etc...
