But now that's about turning out the base, not getting crossover votes, which was the point of the strategy.

Democratic policies are evidence-based. Sorry that evidence don't agree with your ideology.

Watching Hillary's speech makes me believe that this primary has improved her political skills enormously.

If she wins, this primary has made her a much better candidate, in abilities and message.

i guess what i'm hearing you say is that when the crossover votes became the base the strategy died, but if you want to keep those people as your base don't you have to keep doing the same stuff? in other words maybe the way it got written up in the 60s was talking about crossover votes but continuing the same policies and messaging once the votes have crossed over doesn't mean the strategy's over, does it? or how is it not so

Much of Bernie's civil rights history only emerged within the past two weeks. Until then, his participation was virtually unknown. When you have old school black legislators throwing themselves into the Clinton gravy bowl, its difficult to overcome. As Bernie moves ahead, his history in the movement will be better known. Besides, we all know South Carolina is going to go to the Republicans during the general. Bernie's not going to sweat this. He has bigger fish to fry. DONATE!

If by evidence you mean bought by corporations then yes

At least state politics are far less bought and a constitutional amendment could still happen via convention if enough people start to care, which is probably what I'm going to start fueling my money to on the political side goes since a top down approach doesn't work.

Obama didn't kill my youthful left ideals and neither will Clinton or anyone the republicans elect, falling to cynicism when I see people in my local community addicted to meth in high numbers with no future opportunities, and crumbling infrastructure and clearly showing that this 'evidence' isn't helping my fellow man.

Party sorting happened, ending around the 2000 campaign, which is when we entered into the red-state blue-state map that's been basically static ever since. The Southern Strategy was about getting above 50% by appealing to the base of the other party, but that's no longer operative because we're in a 50/50 split with base sentiments locked in.

Yeah but I dont buy anything she says. Im an intelligent man and i buy trump. LOl okay I really don't but I love when he says it. I don't think he has malice behind what he says with hillary I do. There's always something shes plotting. Trump is straight forward anything he plots he says.

He's the guy that says, "I'm going to kill you last." Then keeps that promise.

I think if Hillary had divorced Bill after the scandal came out I would have lots of respect for her. But the fact shes with him is clear its political reasons only and that really makes me disgusted at her that much more.

I don't get it; I wanted Bernie and don't even like Hillary that much, but why are people pretending she's somehow a bad candidate? She's a loving hilariously powerful candidate. It's a real credit to Sanders that he made the impact against her that he did, even if she was clearly holding back so far.

Honestly her and DOnald Trump as a power couple. Imagine the babies they could have made.
