DES MOINES, IowaOn Friday morning, Cyndi Conards home at the end of a snowy road was alive with pre-caucus energy. As Conard, a precinct captain in Sen. Elizabeth Warrens presidential campaign, removed quiche from her oven, Warren staff instructed volunteers how to persuade undecided voters to join their team, handing out door hangers, clipboards and hand warmers, the hum of human activity interrupted only by the squawk of Conards cockatoo Derby Doo.
They were preparing for the arrival of Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), one of Warrens several designated torchbearers there to help the campaign as the impeachment trial continued to keep the candidate in D.C.
But Conard was nervous.
Theyve done a good job, I will have to say, getting out there, she said of Warrens team. I think his group has too. So its kind of hard to know whats gonna happen.
The his she was referring to is Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and in the dwindling days before the Iowa caucuses, the energy among his supporters has propelled him to frontrunner status.

(67,361 posts)they got to the caucus location late and went around and tore off the walls all the organizer materials and hillary materials then put their own up despite being asked not to. had they been on time they would have gotten the chance to set up their own stuff along with the others. then they set up their tables where the were asked not to and sold bernie merchandise which is not allowed but they didnt care about that of course. the rest of the morning they were disruptive of the running of the meeting. hawaii has a semi caucus set up instead of a primary which is easily hindered by disruptive people

Our Revolution won ZERO seats in 2018. Bernie, if nominated, will lose in a landslide.
