Will CA become the Bernie campaign's Alamo?

[Kaleva]

Not saying Bernie or anyone associated with his campaign or a supporter of Bernie is a Texan.

What I am saying is that the Bernie campaign is holed up in California, refusing to give in even though the conclusion is known to most everyone except for diehards who are hoping for a political miracle.

Edited to avoid the appearance of impropriety.

1. I get what you're getting at but really

associating Bernie with NAZI rhetoric is not okay. We're winning so we're gonna have to up our game in terms of graciousness including me.

3. Agree. Just because some newbie Sanders supporters use the Nazi comparisons

We shouldn't.

[BobbyDrake]

4. Agreed. There are equally relevant comparisons that don't involve (those Germans).

Yeah, I'll spend extra time writing more letters just to avoid using the term.

5. Nowhere did I associate the Bernie campaign with Nazi rhetoric

People from all walks of life and having a variety of political views can adopt the same attitude held by someone very different in most respects.

6. I understand. I was talking to myself too :)

HRC needs only 89 more pledged delegates 89!

2. Reality will find its way in, most likely through a door left open by fleeing staffers.

It seems anyone from his CA team with actual principles has left already, because the campaign is focused exclusively on ad buys that make Tad Devine wealthier. I have to guess that the logic is that television ads reach more people, but I've always thought it was the ground game that not only won people over, but motivated them to get out and vote.

7. I'm in CA and I guarantee, I will never

see a Bernie ad on my TV because I have something called pause and fast forward. I watch HRC ads online and they're excellent

8. I thought the Sanders campaign was NOT going to buy TV ads in California. I live in California

and Sanders is having a rally at the Vallejo Ferry Building at 7:00 tonight. I live a few miles from Vallejo. My husband takes the ferry across the bay to his job in San Francisco. Seems like a really weird place for a rally. There is no stadium or anything like that. My husband is dreading trying to get home from work if the place is a mess today. My husband also told me that all the people he talks to who ride the ferry to work in San Francisco are anti Sanders and pro Hillary. Should be interesting.

9. I just looked at the Vallejo Ferry Building in Google Street View

Is he planning to block the street? Or is he trying to give the illusion of a "packed house" with only a couple hundred attendees?

10. Beats me. There is a small area where people can sit while waiting for the ferry, but it like a side

walk with a few benches near the water. There is a little cafe. Lots of parking area that is always full of cars! People like my husband who are tired from working all day and just want to get off the ferry, get to their cars and on the freeway will not be happy. I don't get it at all.

11. At least one of the CA Sanders team leads left because if prioritizing ads over ground game.

So I'm guessing they're doing at least some TV and purchases.
