I feel like the tide is turning. Slowly, like the tide does. First it will ebb, then go slack...

and go in the other direction.

Fucking A, I can feel it in my bones (and my reconstructed knee).

Support for Hillary rises to its highest level (high tide).
Support level falls over several days and weeks, revealing the intersupport zone (ebb tide).
Then support stops falling (low tide).

Next cycle... a rising Bernie, peaking at jusssssst the right time.

1. My dear cherokeeprogressive!

Oh, how much I hope you're right!

[brooklynite]

2. With all due respect to your bones...

...I seem to read a lost of posts from Sanders people who "feel" things changing. I'll stick with hard data, which still points to a respectable performance in the early States but no apparent expansion beyond 30-35% nationwide.

4. An article in 538 today disagrees w you...Bernie still has a chance!

[DrDan]

9. and I have a chance to win the PowerBall $400M

but am realistic about it

[cherokeeprogressive]

11. A 50/50 chance.

You'll either win it, or not.

[NurseJackie]

12. That explains a lot.

[cherokeeprogressive]

13. Like what? That some lack a sense of humor larger than a grain of salt?

3. We need someone like Bernie Sanders. And yes, I feel the tide turning. Let's keep on keeping on!!!

5. I don't think it's a natural tide but one with many snags.

The Great Depression woke up people, but the very rich have learned their lessons and have become more sophisticated . They want what they have always wanted, complete control over everything, and it is a harder fight now.

I felt that ebb and flow for years but it's like overcoming a natural disaster. I hope you are right, but I believe it's a long haul. The right wing, and their ability to separate us with things like racism are very much entrenched.

6. The MSM blackout on Bernie means his movement is growing behind the scenes

but evidence of it is everywhere. Bumper stickers, yard signs, word of mouth, online groups, internet polls, huge rallies with waiting lines that go on for blocks -- just keeps growing and growing. It's a people's movement.

7. You must not live near the ocean.

Bad metaphor.

[jfern]

8. With any luck, we'll see some polls with a single digit margin later this month

And then if Bernie wins Iowa, the race changes overnight. Just look at the 2004 and 2008 races if you think otherwise. Bernie has the momentum.

14. The difference with Obama is they always knew he'd have strong support

among Dems in the south.

[jfern]

15. Hillary was inevitable 8 years ago

[pnwmom]

16. No, she wasn't. She was always going to have a challenge from Obama

in appealing to African American voters, who comprise most of the Democratic electorate in the south.

With Bernie, not so much.

10. let's make his message go viral - post it on Facebook and everywhere

If they American people hear his message - he will WIN!! Let's make sure they do:
