There's a scene in The Blues Brothers where Curtis admonishes the boys to
"Slide on over to the Triple Rock and catch Reverend Cleophus. You boys listen to what he's got to say."
And further on, Curtis admonishes even further:
"You get wise. You get to Church".
Why do I bring this up?
Because this is how we get Bernie to win.
Currently there are 22 or 23 states in which we can get non-Democrats to vote in the Democratic primary. We must, as a community, actively recruit Bernie voters. After all, the media isn't going to give Bernie as much attention as the least polling Republican in the Klown Kar of Krazy gets. Also, the media is too obsessed with taking Hillary down to pay Bernie much attention. This must be a Faberge Shampoo campaign--We tell two friends, and they'll each tell two friends, and so on, and so on, and so on. We have seen how Bernie's message resonates, once people hear it.
An astute diarist and commenter, in another diary, brings up the point that there are a huge number of voters who are disaffected--they just don't care to vote, whether from frustration or apathy. Bernie has the kind of message that resonates especially with these voters. Hillary will have a "50-state" operation up much like Obama did. This is the kind of operation that supporters of Bernie will also have to put together.
Except it doesn't have to be top-down. Bernie has campaigned on not being "top-down". What it takes is people willing to pound pavement and talk, talk, talk.
But my diary title is about "Missing The Boat". Jump over the Chee-To for why:
