Man of integrity, but i believe dr. ford should be heard. that has completely changed this week. what was the pivot point do you think? yeah, it has changed this week. i think jeremy is right, obviously that this has become a galvanizer issue on the right among the base, there is a feeling of resentment and a feeling of anger, grievance and a sense that this is one of our nominees and they re going after him. on top of the political pressure i think there is a sense among republicans both in the white house and in the senate that they are being played in some way, that this is n fact it s not just rhetoric to say that it s democratic plot. there is a feeling among republicans that they have, you know, somehow been on the receiving end of a dirty trick in effect because the issue did not come up until the end of the process rather than in july when dr. blasey ford first wrote her letter to senator feinstein. senator feinstein said she didn t bring this up because dr. blasey ford ask ....
Turnout. democrats do well when a lot of people vote and republicans lose. so what does he have to do to show or does he have to show he s an executive or just stick with the cooky policy on vermont thing? i think he has to come across as credible. his people see this as his big introduction to the democratic party. they have felt all along other people don t know him and the more people get to know him they ll like him more. i think if you listen to that full response he talked about using the bully pulpit. he said, you know, we ll be better at negotiating because mitch mcconnell will look at his window and see millions of people backing bernie sanders administration and his policy. i thought really? does he think he s a better sort of galvanizer of people than barack obama is? and whether or not that would actually do enough to move the needle? barack obama thought the same thing. he thought he could use the bully pulpit to change the politics on guns. it didn t really work. soy ....
I think the previous you could say one thing about the previous two popes, they did shy if they thought something was going to get too controversial they might back off. this pope doesn t seem to be that way. i think the message he s sends everybody s expecting climate change, what he s going to say on income inequality and abortion. the thing i think could end up being the galvanizer here is what he says about syrian refugees. this is something that there has been a lot of anxious inside that chamber about how many refugees should the united states let in? there s been people concerned who are we letting in. and he is i think that s probably where he has the toughest message for some of them to hear, what are you to judge? these people are refugees, you have to do something about this. you re the richest nation in the world. i suspect we re talking about other political items but that s something front and center that he himself is very concerned about. kathleen, from your ....
the decision in citizens united gives all of us in the progressive world an opportunity. there are americans who don t know the name of that case. but they, when asked about what happened in that case, and the effects, say, that was wrong. and citizens united is a mobilizer is a galvanizer for progressives. and we all will use citizens united, anyone in a primary state this year, who has heard the robo calls and every time they pick up the radio or watch tv are just treated to a wealth of or series of ads, knows that something is very much out of whack. we ve got to bring this court back. we ve got to make sure that what are the levers there? i mean that s what i m sort of interested in. citizens united is going to ....
So i was using that quote. it s your job as a candidate, the left likes to use you as a galvanizer. very good point, though, when you re in the presidential realm, i do think that message discipline is required and i do think that that is something that all of us have areas that we need to do better on and that s certainly one i ll pay a lot of attention to. i read a fundraising detail under your name who was talking about our president is too busy gal vanting around europe with his irish cousins. president bachman would never take a personal trip on a g-8 trip. of course presidents take trips, but remember, i think if the shoe was on the other foot and we had a republican as president and we just saw the devastation in joplin, missouri and we see the president of the united states playing ping-pong on tv and we see him serving up hamburgers? in a day we re not dealing with ....
