That’s not to say they won’t circle back after sampling and shopping around. (See Kerry, John F., 2004) — PolitiTweet.org

Mark Z. Barabak @markzbarabak

If it’s more like 15%, that’s problematic. There are a lot of folks out there who backed Sanders the last time because a) he wasn’t Hillary or b) they like what he stood for. Many are now looking at other candidates because, if you’re not a diehard Bernie backer, why not? — PolitiTweet.org

If Sanders base of support is 25% to 30% of the Democratic primary electorate, which his campaign is counting on, that’s one thing, especially in a crowded field. — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans have a history of nominating candidates who’ve run before and lost: Reagan, Romney, Bush I, McCain to name a few.* Democrats not so much. They tend to go for new and shiny. There’s the Hillary Clinton exception and you can dicker over how that turned out. — PolitiTweet.org

Not everybody likes Bernie. But the people who like Bernie really like Bernie. They’re devotees who show up to hear a reprise of greatest hits, time after time, and it never gets old. The question is whether Sanders can grow his support. In short, is there a second act? — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders brings to mind something Jerry Garcia once said about the Grateful Dead: “We’re like licorice. Not everybody likes licorice, but the people who like licorice really like licorice.” — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders clearly has a floor. (A base of diehard loyalists). Is there a ceiling to his support? In 2016, he was the not-Hillary Clinton. Now, with plenty of candidates to choose from, Democrats are shopping around. Live, from Iowa https://t.co/vPeeWor8WC — PolitiTweet.org
