1. How many people has the Bernie campaign registered there?

I heard he was not registering anyone at his huge rallies in various states. Doesn't his campaign know they are supposed to do that?

that Sanders is holding "huge rallies" and "not registering anyone" (to vote)?

12. I wondered which states you had heard

that Sanders was not registering voters at his rallies. I wondered if this was in numerous states or one state in particular.

I've never heard that he wasn't registering voters. Interested in more info about the claim.

10. There is plenty of time to get it in gear

but you need someone who is exceptional and competent and DWS is neither.

She's really good at failing, and that's about it, as best I can see.

A good leader in her role could make up the difference by November. But that will stop being true at some point on the calendar. We need to get rid of her.

8. If the Dems are behind in TX voter registrations

then this is a turnaround of epic proportions from 2008.

In 2008, in Texas, the Democrats had more voters who participated in the Texas Dem primaries--than there were registered Republicans in the state. We killed it in Texas in 08! We were so far ahead of the Rs.

I agree, she's really not helping our image.

17. I figure it cuts across partisanship here
Thu Feb 25, 2016, 02:32 AM

she's just not good for the party and I don't think she's good at most aspects of her job.

Didn't know about the anti-medical marijuana thing. That sounds like a repugnant effort.
