Yes, let's primary Elizabeth Etsy in a barely-D seat because that's a smart thing to do that makes complete sense.

Revolution!

Is there a study on the effectiveness of phonebanking?

the good thing about taking out Ayotte, Poliquin & Guinta is that Collins will be the only Republican left in New England.

They want some douche named Mike Beitiks to be our Senator.

I did get a text message from the Sanders campaign today asking if I wanted to volunteer going door to door in New York this weekend (I really don't). I'm compelled to think it's more a name recognition play, and is probably less effective than television ads but more effective than yard signs.

My roommate is watching that embarrassing John Heilemann show and they just said something like if clinton loses in WI it blows up the narrative

These two are the biggest fucking clowns in the business.

Bernie will care about the down ticket tho. His down ticket.

So you have to join Bernie's "party" to get down-ticket support for him?

Has he raised any money for the people listed on this page?

Yeah, I love both Game Change books, but I've grown to hate WADT because they never answer for being completely wrong on their predictions. They live in the world where momentum is everything.

You shut your whore mouth. No such thing as too hairy!

 

[User 463088]

On the Dem side, momentum has been far less important than demographics. I can't think of a single race in which momentum has mastered. If it did, this would have been over after the Queen Sweep. I think Bernie running against the establishment makes Hillary's momentum useless. His may have an ounce of weight, but not enough to make huge differences in the overall dynamic of the race.

This is fucking horrifying:

Muslims Used To Love Living In Tennessee — Now It's A Nightmare

For decades, even after 9/11, Muslims felt at home in Tennessee, the “buckle of the Bible Belt.” Then it became one of the most hostile places in America.

Oh my God Trump is an idiot. Fox was having a town hall thing with him and peopel were asking questions... and the guy did not answer a single fucking question at all. He just... said a bunch of word salad.

I draw the line at shoulder hair. Although, the benefit of a whore mouth is that I never have to shut it

I feel like !ajor papers are not even talking about it.

11 million documents, I'm gonna wait a bit and see what looks like it's important enough to read

I just wonder if there are ties to the Clintons are involved or any of the GOP candidates

 

[eBay Huckster]

I just wonder if there are ties to the Clintons are involved or any of the GOP candidates

or if, in a bizarre twist, Sanders is involved

 

[Butts-a-plenty]

It leads to the whitey tape.

The #OccupyCNN thing is weird, since CNN is one of the only places still propping up that Bernie has a chance. They love their dead heats.

OccupyCNN? For what?

 

[Macho Madness]

OccupyCNN? For what?

Bernie not getting the amount of media coverage they want, I guess.

 

[NeoXChaos]

why can't most bernie supporters be more like Aaron, Macho, Orange & Melk?

I mean I guess he could be in this too.

Occupy Macho for not giving Bernie enough coverage on this!!!!!

 

[Suikoguy]

Unless the document dump is not OCR'ed specific connections should come out pretty quickly.

 

[Tamanon]

I don't think US politicians will be involved there. They're more of a Cayman group I believe.

 

[Bowdz]

So uh the Panama papers huh

Is there any indication that they will be relevant to the election? Haven't they been out long enough for journalists to search for relevant names?

 

[Tamanon]

Shouldn't have much to do with the US election. Considering they have big names overseas, I see no reason they wouldn't have noticed big US Pols yet.

Yeah, it does help play into the Sanders corruption message. But without anyone from the US Government being implicated, it's impact is lessened.

 

[Macho Madness]

You'd think links to prominent US politicians or presidential candidates would be the first things up but this is also being done in waves or something.

 

[NeoXChaos]

I live here, Hillary by a lot. In addition to NYC, Long Island and the closer suburbs (Rockland, Westchester) is TERRIBLE turf for Sanders; we always get compared to Massachusetts but we're not as liberal as you think (more like center-left). He'll do well in the rural areas but he'll also lose Albany, Rochester, and Buffalo. 25-30 point victory for HRC

hmm. what say you b-dubs?

 

[Bowdz]

I understand that doing things in waves Garner's more attention and buzz for the publication, but it is so annoying. If you have the information, just release it.

Adam, this Wrestlemania is garbage. Post if you're okay.

 

[B-Dubs]

I'm a little nitpicky with the generalizations, but I generally agree. Even my brother, who is younger than me and has more college aged friends than I do, seems to think Hillary will win the state easy.

I think he'll do well in the gentricized parts of Brooklyn, the sections of Manhattan that house NYU and Columbia, and the parts of the state with colleges that have big dorms (some of the SUNY schools and Adelphi/Hofstra). While NYC has a lot of colleges, which would point to Bernie doing well, they're mostly commuter schools. Queens College, which is probably among the largest of the CUNY schools, only has a single dorm building.

I think it'll be closer to 20, maybe just over 15 if Bernie can do a good job and Hillary screws up a bit.

 

[Tamanon]

The only person I would think would possibly be on that list that's in politics is Trump. But the list isn't really about corruption, but more about tax evasion.

I'm in Indiana. Probably going to vote for the GOP ticket because there are Senate races and other down ticket votes that could be interesting. The D side seems pretty set.

We ended up not watching it. Kyle said it wasn't worth it.(And he's bitched the whole time he missed it....)

We watched House of Cards and Game of Thrones instead.
