Re: just some random thoughts

I know the media is really missing in their analysis of this election -- Hillary has the most popular votes of any candidate running for president; she has a sizable lead in pledged delegates that has surpassed the mark where she was at this time in 2008; and despite many challenges (high negatives emanating from calculated Republican pile on), she holds commanding leads with women, AA voters, Latinos and Asian Americans. And now look at Millennial data put together by Rock the Vote...see graphics attached.

 

Great article analyzing who is a Hillary voter:  https://newrepublic.com/article/131762/hillary-voter

 

I think Sanders is a rule breaker and has no institutional loyalty to the Democratic Party; we should expect him to ignore the rules and persist in his quest to flip Super Delegates despite over whelming evidence that reflects his considerable weaknesses with the Democratic base and no doubt in the general.

 

All of this might seem obvious to us, but the media is missing in action.

Hello.  Agree with all this.  We have worked aggressively to push all of this with the media.  They don't care.  They think she is going to win and it is not news.  So we are finding memos are our best way to make these arguments because it forces coverage.  We did one Wednesday morning and doing another one today using Ohio results to tell a good story of how our econ message broke through. 

Super D's are not my lane - but agree he is a rule breaker and need to be ready!
