Momentum SWINGS To Bernie Sanders
PRESS RELEASE
Momentum Swings to Sanders
FEBRUARY 24, 2016
<insert picture here>
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Telling a packed convention center crowd here on Wednesday that “we are gaining momentum,†Bernie Sanders cited huge turnouts at his rallies and three new national polls putting him ahead of Hillary Clinton in the Democratic Party presidential nomination contest.
“We started this campaign 9 1/2 months ago and we were at 3 percent. In the last week there have been three national polls that have us in the lead,†Sanders told the crowd of some 7,100 supporters who came out for the weekday afternoon rally. “We are gaining momentum every single day.â€
A Reuters/Ispos tracking poll released on Wednesday put Sanders ahead by six points, 42 percent to 36 percent. It was the latest voter survey showing the race taking a turn in Sanders’ favor. Within the past week, a Fox News poll had the U.S. senator from Vermont overtaking the former secretary of state 47 percent to 44 percent. A McLaughlin & Associates poll on Feb. 17 had Sanders edging Clinton 42.6 percent to 42.5 percent.
“The reason we have so much momentum, the reason we are doing so well, is that … the American people in Kansas, in Missouri and all over this country are sick and tired of establishment politics,†Sanders told the crowd at the Kansas City Convention Center. “And they know that Washington is too busy representing the interests of wealthy campaign contributors to worry about the middle class.â€
Sanders’ fast-growing national appeal also is reflected in state polls. For example, he’s up by 7 points in a Public Policy Polling survey in Massachusetts, where Sanders leads 49 percent to 42 percent. In Vermont, where Sanders will watch returns from his hometown next Tuesday, Sanders was ahead 86 percent to 10 percent.
“In state after state … the gap is narrowing or we are now forging ahead,†Sanders told the Kansas City crowd. “If we stand together we can win this nomination.â€

4. My fear
is that he can win the general, but the obstacles to the nomination will be too much to overcome. Hillary seems to be in the exact opposite situation.

15. Oh--you don't think the David Brock is thinking of the country as a whole when he is asking Bernie
not to criticize Hillary? Neither do I. He has run a very nasty sniping series of ads, press releases, and he gets no sympathy from me.
On the other hand, in a fit of absolute hyperbole, he claimed that Sanders was running "the most negative campaign I've seen." What a crock.
Go Bernie!

9. In other words, Bernie sanders is now the Democratic front runner!!!
It would appear that having huge amounts of ill-gotten dark money, favors owed across the board (mostly because a spouse was once president).
Deep friendships with big names like Kissinger, Blankfein, Dimon and the backing of the private prison industry.
The work of one of the biggest hired guns in the slime slinging game, David Brock.
Even the tried and true methods of using race, sex sexuality and subculture to pit the poor one against the other aka divide and conquer the 99% of those that are not affluent.
(Read this post for more clarification)
Even stacking the deck with the DNC, absurdly so, to the point of even opposing Obama himself to change DNC rules in order take more dark money from SuperPacs and have the funds sent to her own PACs
Hillary is behind in the pols in honesty, favorability, in head to head match-ups against Republicans and every other meaningful metric
Even with all this Hillary the anointed is not the front runner of our party!
It proves that most people can tell the difference between a corrupt snake oil salesman and an honest man in it not for himself but rather the good of the country.
This is good news!
Dude, ole rumple hair is down 501-80 in delegates (or very close to that number). You're head will explode like the guy on TV saying, "Sorcery". I. Can't. Wait.

These are the same people who use media polls as "evidence" of vote fraud (when an R beats a D). :popcorn: :rotf: Now they've turned their ignorance inward. :rotf: :popcorn: Works for me! :popcorn:

It's 505-71 to be exact. And things don't look good leading into the next run of states for crazy Bernie, either. :popcorn:

Seven of the Super Tuesday states are southern.
There aren't many white democrats in the south, and blacks don't like Jews.
Of course, with two old crackers on the democrat ballot, the blacks may not show up to vote.
