Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumI've been called an optimist, but am I the only one...
who thinks we are going to sneak a win out in Michigan, possibly changing the course of things heading to IL, FL and NY?
I think the momentum would be very solid. And I think we can win because he is campaigning smart again.

(12,471 posts)I see a lot of Bernie signs here in the Hudson Valley. I know that nearly everyone I know, who lives in NYC and Albany is for Bernie. I am also aware that through the middle of the state, which tends to be more Republican, they are in favor of Clinton.
Due to the population density of the areas though, I think it is possible for Bernie to win NY.
Turnout will be the biggest factor.

This is looking better for Bernie every day!

GO BERNIE!!!

(13,685 posts)I am really getting pissed off. The lack of media coverage, and now our fellow Dems telling us that we will be ignored come some arbitrary date they have set, and the lack of the party doing anything to get the vote out along with all the slurs and smears on Bernie......
Gawd dammit, I hope the people get off their asses, vote for their best interests and make it so that Bernie wins in real landslide after landslide all the rest of the primaries and caucuses.
Please, people, let's get on with changing the country for the better!!

People are pissed! Bernie has a chance in my purple state so I'm equally optimistic for MIchigan
