The bit at the end from Barron had me laughing out loud. The dynamics of politics are hilarious anyways but “insider” reactions to them can just be side-splitting.

“I find it a little insulting,” Barron said. “Massachusetts has more delegates on the floor of the convention next summer than Iowa and New Hampshire combined, and we have one more electoral vote than they do combined.”

Barron said the candidates raise funds in Massachusetts and should take the opportunity to speak to grassroots activists. “We’re seen as an ATM machine,” Barron said.
