Someone should forward him the enthusiasm numbers in these recent polls
It's cool and all but he gotta demonstrate that enthusiasm by winning Iowa, first.
Bernie's really betting the farm on Iowa with statements like that.

An Iowa upset would be fantastic but I'm not holding my breath.
If Hillary is indeed the nominee, it's going to be really really weird seeing the disconnect between the loud folks online who didn't pick her and the political reality on the ground, in the voting booths.
In an odd way, it reminds me of the "I don't know how Nixon won. I don't know anyone who voted for him" phenomenon.

I know he was (is?) a cokehead, but other than that I don't know of anything that would really bite him in the ass. Matt Gonzalez is a friend of an elderly artist neighbor in my building that we both have been helping and I've always wanted to ask him about Gavin.
4 debates in the next 2 weeks? Oh lordy.

Four more Democratic debates really feels like overkill when it's a two horse race (Sorry, Marty). I wonder if they'll proceed even when O'Malley drops out within the next week or so and if the delegate count gets insurmountable.

When did Trump become a conservative?
Why are people like Hannity who call themselves conservatives all of a sudden decided that Trump is a conservative when he has demonstrated he's the opposite? Because he promises stuff that he can never deliver?

They never supported Romney like that and he was a RINO, Trump was straight-up registered democrat, it's crazy, he says a bunch of irresponsible crazy shit and nobody would call him out on it.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
They did, actually. Limbaugh bragged for months about how he wouldn't carry the GOPs water because they were going to choose Romney, then when theyndid he went right back to supporting him.

77k doors knocked this weekend for Sanders, 125k for Clinton. Enthusiasm gap.

Sanders certainly ain't duplicating Obama's ground game.

To relax, I'm watching an old SNL VHS tape: Sigourney Weaver in 1986 - back when the cast changed over to Phil Hartman, Jan Hooks, Dana Carvey, etc. The 12th season was the start of something amazing.
Somewhat appropriate for the night before Iowa caucuses: Church Chat was the first sketch after the monologue.

Yes, but only the doors that don't belong to the corporate oligarchs actually count. So, she probably had people knock on like...5 or 6 doors tops.

Finally some tough talk. But if he loses Iowa tomorrow, which seems likely, it's going to blow up a lot of the narratives he's been building...
I'm excited to be a bystander with no horse in the race.

Ya'll got some dirty ass minds assuming I compromised my Christianity. All I said was that I wasn't thirsty no more. Had me one of them Big Gulps.

I wonder if some of Bernie's internals aren't living up to his campaign's expectations. They were really pushing the momentum narrative hard going into this last week. It's an obvious strategy, regardless of what the numbers happen to be. The double edge sword, though, is that if he doesn't win it makes Hillary's win look better and his loss look worse.

Jeff Weaver, the Sanders campaign manager, is spreading serious FUD about Clinton bringing people out of state to be precinct captains. This is something every campaign does.

Those glasses and impressive jawline though. I would love to show her some compassionate Christian conservatism.
Someone needs to tell Politico "Why Bernie Sanders is obsessed with 17 year olds" is not a good title.

My poor bae. I wondered why he took the $20 from my night stand.
I wonder if he stays in through New Hampshire. I assume so. but perhaps not much long after that. Unless he can float along long enough to get into a few of the extra debates.
It does not bode well for your campaign manager to be unfamiliar with the rules.

Scary and sad. I still weep over how poorly trained Hillary's 08 caucus people were.
Bernie's Campaign has been trying to float as many things as possible to excuse away a possible Bernie loss. It's not a good look.
Has anyone with a legit polling company come up with predictions for delegate allocations? I would love to see that.

Nah. He was actually pretty positive about Obama well into 2010. It was in 2011 that he jumped on the birther train.
In 2009:

How has no one hit him with this yet? Seriously, it writes itself. I'm sure there has to be video out there somewhere. I mean, it probably wouldn't hurt him....no one can. Why hasn't anyone tried, though? Does no one's campaign (other than Bernie's, I assume) know what Buzzfeed is?
My guess is that this was amongst Megyn Kelly's clips.
Certainly. It's been brought up before -- also last week he was saying he would work with Pelosi and Schumer

He was very strongly associated with being a birther. Any attacks along those lines would fail hard. I don't think its that unreasonable to think that may have been one of the main reasons he jumped on that considering he started publicly mulling being president around the same time.
I haven't seen anything of the sort, but if Selzer's estimate of 27% of Bernie's voters being concentrated in three college towns is accurate, he has quite a hill to climb.

I was talking about this tonight. We were wondering what Trump's motivation was to get into this race. I think it's ego, definitely. However, when you hear him "speak" (Because that's not really a speech, it's just a circle jerk of ideological insanity) he really seems to think that he's making a difference. Half of me believes he really does want to make this country great again. I mean, he's so fucking wrong it's disgusting, but I don't think this is 100% ego driven.

Isn't Trump's main excuse that he was doing business in NYC, so he said liberal shit he didn't really believe in order to be on good terms with people? By saying the whole game is rigged, and he knows because he's played it, he's basically ensured that nothing contradictory he's ever said or done can REALLY be used against him, because he can just play it off as "the game" or whatever.

I mean Cruz is a scumbag, but kids are kids. Even kids who have amazing and loving fathers (not saying Cruz is either that or a bad father), sometimes act like they hate their parents. I hate Cruz for all different kinds of reason, but let's not trash him for stuff like this.

Regardless of how awesome the person is, I thought most of us are against superpacs even if they are used for "good."
