Remember when Bernieworld freaked out that the DNC was making copies of all of the caucus worksheets?
It wasn't a big conspiracy, you gullibles. They wanted to preserve a paper trail for later verification! twitter.com/TomPerez/statu…

It's completely fair to heavily discount polling this far out. But in that case, how do you objectively measure base enthusiasm? You can't. Bernie's supposed army of supporters hasn't shown up for elections in the past, or in IA. Maybe they will in NH, but if not...

Likewise, this mindset that “my way or the highway” wins elections - at least as a Democrat.

I would qualify this. I see tons of SV people suddenly talking about how huge remote is getting - and yeah, it's growing. But ask folks outside SV looking for remote gigs, and they'll tell you they're still extremely rare, hard to find, harder to land. twitter.com/adamnash/statu…

There is solid evidence that Biden is our strongest candidate this fall. He doesn't hurt the downticket and might even be a bonus. I know this isn't what a lot of folks want to hear. You know I'm a huge Warren fan, but if she isn't going to be viable...

You're pinning a lot of hopes in polls taken almost a year before the election - and yeah, there's good evidence here that Biden is the stronger candidate.
I get that Biden's not exciting, but I'm quickly coming around to the POV that he's our guy.

Look, I admit that there's a lot of uncertainty about all of this. Maybe I'm wrong. No one really knows for sure.
But what I'll tell you is absolutely no Democrat running in a remotely tight race in NC wants Bernie at the top of the ticket. It's poison. It costs us seats.

I see Democrats in 2020 as being more competitive in NC than ever before - there's been massive influx of Dem-heavy new voters. Part of the whole trajectory. But Bernie is incredibly polarizing, and he's not gonna pull it off here.

Roy - basically the definition of a moderate, folksy Dem - won a squeaker by like 10,000 votes statewide here in 2016. Does anyone seriously think that an elderly, curmudgeonly northeastern self-described socialist... improves on that?

HRC basically repeated BHO's 2012 turnout performance and we lost in a 1-in-5 fluke. It wasn't a bad showing, even if we need to improve. What I'm saying is: does anyone seriously think *Bernie* improves on HRC's performance? How? Where?

Remember: there is no "lose the popular vote, win the EC" math out there for Democrats.

Do you really want to pin our hopes on a 2016 Trump-like fluke happening a second time?

Some of them, yes. But different degree. And he won a clear majority of primary voters.

Except no evidence of the massive turnout, much less by young/independents, that we were promised.
