Punkingal's JournalIt was the debate that did it.
Bernie was fantastic in the debate on Sunday night. Probably the first time a lot of people really paid attention, and he hit it out of the park.
So the faux outrage over his rudeness to Hillary and finger-wagging at her was useless in the long run.
As was the auto bail-out lie...in fact, I think that lie back-fired big time.
And the people in Michigan truly understand the damage NAFTA did to the country. I think they responded to Bernie's passion about that.
I am so glad they had that debate!
My caucus in Red Wing MN....Bernie won 343-259!!!!!!
This was my first time to caucus and there was a HUGE crowd. It was difficult for everyone to get in the room...it was in a cafeteria in a middle school. Everyone was saying the turnout was unprecedented...much larger than 2008.
Unlike some other caucus states you do get a small piece of paper with the candidates listed and you mark your choice and put it in an envelope.
It was somewhat chaotic, but I didn't get the feeling that anyone left or didn't get to vote.
