I'm starting to become very optimistic about Bernie's chances.

Sanders Campaign Endorsed by MoveOn.org - ABC News

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders on Tuesday received the endorsement of MoveOn.org, a grassroots organization that has been at the forefront of liberal causes. MoveOn says the Vermont senator was supported by 78.6 percent of its membership in an online vote of more than 340,000 members. Hillary Clinton received 14.6 percent and Martin O'Malley received 0.9 percent with the remaining members urging no endorsement. "MoveOn members are feeling the Bern," said Ilya Sheyman, executive director of MoveOn.org Political Action. "We will mobilize aggressively to add our collective people power to the growing movement behind the Sanders campaign, starting with a focus on voter turnout in Iowa and New Hampshire

The ground is melting under Hillarys feet.

If the D's dont know by now that they messed up by trying to do a Hillary coronation then there really is no hope for them.

But what is the solution?
 
The solution is let the people vote, let them decide, let the chips fall where they may whether Hillary or Bernie wins. That should be the beginning and the end of the solution for the Democrats.

If Bernie can boost caucus turnout in Iowa the way Obama did in 2008, we could see a repeat surprise victory for the underdog. Combine that with an already pretty good state in NH for the guy, then certainty gets much less certain.
 
forgot to add... the vote was by 340,000 members.
 
Make sense that one of the most left-wing organizations would endorse the most left-wing candidate.

The only "coronation" I am aware of is the one Faux Noise "beat to death" hoping to create the news rather than reporting it............over and over again..........B-O-R-I-N-G

And it never happened.......proving my point..........

Democrats do not need any help from Faux Noise or the GOP to "screw up"................The Democrats are most capable to screw up on their own without any outside help
 
Doesn't MoveOn claim to have over 8 million members? Looks like a lot of them are apathetic if only 340,000 of them voted.
