Bet he moves to the right to try to get Haley voters.

This is why voting is so important, and why voting uncommitted in the primary is a sound strategy this time around. Politicians listen to voters, because they actually show up to vote.
Threatening to withhold your vote is powerful only if you've already given it before. I hope more people start understanding this
I don't know where else to post this, so here goes
I'm sad that Obama never adopted the "-nomics" moniker that Reagan and Biden have. Obamanomics just rolls off the tongue
As far as I can tell Bernie won't be giving his own response to the SOTU this year - has anyone seen any announcements by him?
If nothing else, he's proven he still has some endurance left. This is a long speech.
Stamina
Holy shit, he's working them over like a pro boxer.
I can't believe he still has energy to mingle after that.
Not just mingle, but recognize and engage so many people. Listening in, he is dropping policy and info on people based on what he knows they care about.
He always does this, and it pisses the Secret Service off to no end lol
I would imagine they don't need quite the same alertness that you'd have in public - should be a secure area with known people (granted, I wouldn't want him alone with Gaetz or MTG)
Say what you want about Katie Britt, but she did deliver the biggest laugh of the night...
