Iowa is the key.

If we win Iowa, NH will fall into our lap. No insurgency campaign, iircc, has ever won both states before. That would be another new historic record. Millions of people would take a first or second close look at him in the wash of new, favorable publicity. If he wins both, Vegas odds makers will be scrambling.

So *anything* you can do for Iowa is helpful. Maybe you aren't able to get there (and out of state phone banking probably isn't done) but you might find ways to help. Maybe you know people in IA and perhaps you can reach out and see if there is any way to help or encourage them to be active. Even a bumper sticker, pin or yard sign can help. I'm going to reach out to a friend tonite.

Maybe you know someone living close enough to IA to drive into Iowa and canvass. They have a canvassing push this weekend.

Go the IA group on DU and PM someone in a Bernie Group and see if they would be interested in posting an informative link you can provide.

Think outside the box. If you have plenty of discretionary income, maybe you can sponsor someone to go to Iowa and canvass, etc. There might be something you can do, even if it's just sending Bernie $16.

We have till February 1 (less than 90 days), when the Iowa caucus happens. We are very close to passing Hillary there again. Let's do this.

It comes with mini-position cards and stickers and it's only $25.00

These would be perfect for handing out to large groups.

So many people on DU are genuine assets to the Bernie campaign.
