WITCHES ALL IN FOR BERNIE

By Bob Walsh

The local Wiccan community in Portland, Oregon has announced that they are all in for Bernie Sanders. They held a very nice informal event for him at a local park Friday night in advance of the upcoming primary. They set up a sacred circle and smudged the participants appropriately, hoping to set up a good positive vibe to support Sanders.

Please note that I am not knocking it. I am in fact a practicing pagan and the few witches I know are very nice people. I am offering this up as a piece of amusing news, and to point out that Hillary may be in more trouble than she may think.

If she has lost the fringe religious groups (I think that is a fair and nonjudgmental description) to a superannuated socialist curmudgeon she may be further out in the weeds than she thinks she is.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Never underestimate the power of witches. Very few people outside of New England knew what a Bernie was before this presidential election campaign and now their witches brew has guaranteed that he will come in second to Hillary. Wow!
