[SirBrockington]

So far it has not been promising results.

Looking forward to seeing if his endorsement is able to impact the Florida race with DWS.

1. Bush was elected twice and I didn't give up. No need to give up now.

That reminds me: today is payday and Tim has another donation coming his way

2. I can't see how anybody doesn't like Lucy Flores

She would make a great Congressperson. Perhaps her opponent will too, but there should be a place for Lucy eventually

5. I think that's part of the irony, her opponent was no less progressive and by all accounts

was exactly the type of person Berniecrats should support, so it made sense that he won.

3. He's endorsing long shot candidates

Who are challenging the status quo and the party establishment. So yeah, the success rate is going to be low. But if he can make a difference in a few races that's great. I really wish he would focus on that instead of expending so much energy and capital on the party platform and primary rules and DNC leadership. At the end of the day I think electing more downballot progressives who challenge the establishment will have more lasting impact.

4. What was the turnout like in Nevada?

Did the Sanders supporters from the last Nevada caucus show up to vote for Flores?
