The ‘Sandersnista’ revolution sparks Florida Democratic panic

politi.co/2TfotDd
This is a long-form story packed with polling and other data.

In Democrat/Latino-rich Miami-Dade County, Sanders could have significant struggles

politi.co/2TfotDd
Florida Latinos differ from those in other states (in part because of the diversity of places of origin)

politi.co/2TfotDd
Sanders was found to be a drag on @AndrewGillum when he ran against @RonDeSantisFL

politi.co/2TfotDd
And Bernie’s remarks just made the 6 o’clock local news in Democrat-rich Miami. It’s tough to burn presidential politics into local Miami news, which is often a gruesome tableaux of crime and scandal. So that gives you an idea about the sensitivity of this politi.co/2TfotDd

Interesting that @realDonaldTrump deleted this tweet accusing @MikeBloomberg of being a “total racist” and didn’t repost (which he often does if there’s an error he wants to fix)

And yes, I reposted this because of my own typo in a now-deleted tweet

These facts can’t be unspun:

1) @NWSBirmingham was right when it said Sept. 1 that Alabama “will NOT see any impacts from #Dorian”.

2) @realDonaldTrump was wrong Sept. 1 for saying AL “will most likely be hit (much) harder than anticipated”

1) @NWSBirmingham link: bit.ly/2LqNffu

2) @realDonaldTrump link: bit.ly/2LwLUnI

3) @NOAA (politburo): bit.ly/2LBixQY
3/8 @NOAA’s statement is right that @NWSBirmingham spoke in “absolute terms that were inconsistent with probabilities from the best forecast products available at the time”

But so did the President & then some. Ultimately he was wrong & NWS was right. @noaa is silent about that

New Hampshire open ballot: Biden 33%, Sanders 12%, Warren’s 11% etc

NH head-2-head: Biden 66%, Sanders 22%

South Carolina open: Biden 37%, Sanders 10%, Warren 8% etc

SC head to head: Biden 70%, Sanders 15% via @TelOpinion poll

In heavily white New Hampshire, Biden’s support cuts across every demographic
In heavily black South Carolina, Biden’s support cuts across every demographic (look at the relatively outsized support of African-Americans & esp black women over 55)

Long, thoughtful, fascinating exploration of #Bernie's history. This narrative makes Bernie immensely more accessible and even likeable. His long financial origin story is quintessentially American in its working-class to riches trajectory.

I've written about #Sanders over the years and like most leftists, thought his politics were an essential prod to others in Congress. But there are details of his political history here that #Bernie should be pushing instead of hiding: like that he was a Harvard fellow.
2/
#Sanders is often presented as s spendthrift, but what propelled #Bernie from 3-term mayor of tiny Burlington into the House was his fiscal responsibility. He literally was deemed the Republican Trotskyite while mayor for reeling in spending and building the city's coffers.

This awed tone of MSM coverage of #Sanders is so gendered.

Harris and Klobuchar are both daughters of single mothers who had to raise their kids alone after their husbands left the families.
Warren also grew up in a working class family in Oklahoma.

THREAD📌📌📌
1/
Money was a stress for these women's families as well. Klobuchar has spoken movingly of her family's estrangement from her father, an alcoholic.
But the coverage of these women not only hasn't reflected this awe of their families' struggles, but has been harshly critical.

2/
No one has situated Klobuchar's perfectionism within the well-documented construct of being the child of an alcoholic fighting chaos.

Harris and Klobuchar both had to work harder than their male counterparts to get on their college & career paths, due to their backgrounds.

*** THREAD ***

I would like to say something about the #Miami MLS proposal.

Firstly, forget the merits, there's a big problem.

The process.

I do not trust it.

Residents must make a final decision on a complex multi-million dollar real estate transaction.

1/
Thus far, the @MiamiHerald's @joeflech was stonewalled when requesting the public records to report on it during the last month.

The vote is Thursday.

Then it goes to a referendum where competing groups will dump millions of dollars into lobbying a plan nobody has seen yet.

2/
Residents of @CityofMiami have seen the failure of the backwards approach to business time & time again.

Not just from failed developments.

But from MLS very specifically, who has already announced another stadium deal with the City of Miami in 2015
