Watching the dinner and the audience won't let them proceed when they mention Bernie.
Hillary people and Bernie people are trying to outshout each other .

(3,649 posts)His voice sounded like it just gave up about halfway through. Also credit to him for being so patient with those people and the noisemakers. OMG were they annoying.

Most recent poll I saw had Hillary Clinton up by more than 20 points.

(3,111 posts)Ralph Waldo Emerson said something like "the human heart resounds to that iron string". I mean the string of truth, the string of justice, the string of "the American Way". Oh, woops, just strayed into Superman territory. But hey, who would have thought that Bernie Sanders could lead such a movement so far? And I believe he can lead it all the way to the White House and to Democratic victories in all Senate races and House races and Governor races in a way that nobody else can.
I am with Bernie all the way.
Go, Bernie, Go!

(51,907 posts)White House hopeful Bernie Sanders, his fervent supporters, and his call for political revolution are likely making Hillary Clinton nervous in yet another early voting state, according to news reports on Thursday.
The Nevada caucuses on February 20 are the third of the U.S. primary season, which, as the Guardian notes, makes the state "crucial for a candidate hoping to build momentum."
And Sanders appears to be gathering that momentum, with Politico reporting Thursday that the state "is suddenly looking like it's in play, potentially opening another unexpected early state front."
The Sanders campaign has reportedly hired twice the number of on-the-ground staffers as Clinton has, and has nine field offices across the state as opposed to Clinton's seven (as of Thursday). Sanders has also spent hundreds of thousands more on English- and Spanish-language television and radio advertisements in Nevada.
At a caucus dinner in Las Vegas on Wednesday night attended by all three Democratic candidates, "Sanders' supporters were by far the noisiest and most vocally enthusiastic from long before the candidates emerged," Nicky Woolf reported for the Guardian. "Chants of 'Bernie! Bernie!' went up several times before general cheers drowned them out. A small coterie held aloft a rainbow H for Hillary, but as Born in the USA played the candidates in, the chants of Sanders' supporters drowned out the others."
