that even in red states people are working their asses off to get Bernie nominated? I know to many we don't matter, but what we make up in not mattering to many, we make up in sheer determination to matter to the last vote.

That's inconvenient, isn't it? MineralMan Nov 2015 #1
Yep, very inconvenient for Bernistas... stevenleser Nov 2015 #4
Yes, I did see that, and defended you. MineralMan Nov 2015 #7

Thread title is misleading or at worse an outright lie ram2008 Nov 2015 #8
Several polls had him ahead. It depended on which poll you believed. Which to me indicates a tie. nt stevenleser Nov 2015 #9
Most people go by averages. ram2008 Nov 2015 #13
In a contest like the Iowa caucuses the average doesnt mean as much. The ending result tells stevenleser Nov 2015 #15
So then what's the purpose of this thread? ram2008 Nov 2015 #20
I didn't say only the end point matters. nt stevenleser Nov 2015 #27
Operation Discourage Bernie Supporters continues I see. HerbChestnut Nov 2015 #10
And you can continue pushing that line for another 84 days. Time is running out. nt stevenleser Nov 2015 #11
That's 3 months HerbChestnut Nov 2015 #12
Nearly, yes. And the trajectory is also all wrong. Hillary's lead is widening and the other problem stevenleser Nov 2015 #14

I think Hillary's lead is as wide as it's going to get. HerbChestnut Nov 2015 #23
It's relentless Aerows Nov 2015 #19
Or you can see it as "Operation GET OUT THE VOTE *NOW*". Consider it a wake-up BlueCaliDem Nov 2015 #28
You are absolutely correct. HerbChestnut Nov 2015 #29

It was always a long shot. That's the case with our best choices usually. Bonobo Nov 2015 #17
It's not a long shot Aerows Nov 2015 #24
She's isn't leading. Nice try though. Fearless Nov 2015 #18
The Iowa caucus is one month later this time. So, you need to be looking at October polls not askew Nov 2015 #22
October polls weren't much different. They showed a very small Hillary lead. nt stevenleser Nov 2015 #26
