Just remember, if you're in a red county- bring a sammich and a lot of the non-alcoholic bevvy of your choice! (And make friends w/the person next to you-- line- placeholder for bathroom breaks.)

Oh heavens I wish I could agree, I wish I wish I wish I could, and I realize trial heats are still about name recognition minus future negative attacks, but...a difference between an 9% margin and a 4% margin, in an election that may require as much as a 7% margin in the national popular vote to overcome the electoral college handicap, isn't "5%", it's nearly double. It's not hard and fast data but it's reasonable comparative data at this point. Name recognition and net positives are an asset and that is a head start on getting elected, which is also called "electability".

Watching MSNBC talking to NH peeps and I've decided that the winner is(in no particular order) Amy, Liz, Bernie and Pete.

It can if we capitalize on it--Steyer for example could put some millions into targeted Facebook ads for military members and vets, hitting this over and again.

Picture the ad--a military family talking about how the school is falling apart and they don't have new books for the kids, or have to share a single computer. They were counting on extra funds. Cut to Trump stealing from that pot of money to fund a wall he said Mexico would pay for...a wall that blew down under a light wind.

This is kind of interesting too. Wish more reporting was on polling based on the electoral college.https://www.270towin.com/
