The progressive base.
yea
Like, everyone not in SF or NYC will ignore her.
And the media will figure it out and not bring her up.
@devpav something like that. But if you bend the rules it causes chaos and the party bosses won't like that.
And since Cortez's base is the most energized and active part of the base, they won't risk alienating them further. They need footsoldiers to run door to door for voter registration drives and campaigning.
If Crowley was mounting a serious challenge, he would have been making noise already.
The Dems already spend millions astroturfing all of that.
Money and people are different resources.
You need both.
The Dems use money to buy people. That's Soros's schtick.
actively campaigning (volunteers and all) works, might not always win but its a fantastic way to get awareness out or get out to vote
Dems and Repubs campaign
although they put more effort into it if the area is swing
@devpav you don't honestly believe the left is just controlled by Soros, do you?
I believe he's their largest donor.
LIke, he's a major player and his recent donation is actually an order of magnitude larger than both war chests in 2016.
m'Soros puppets
But he's not some kind of puppetmaster, and money alone won't win you anything.
And money disappears fast.
Sure? But there's more than just Soros' organizations.
Of course there is.
i read that as smores
smores puppets
There's still Silicon Valley, the MSM, etc etc. I never said the Dem Party was a one-man show run by Soros.
Idk if it’s just my area but there is an increase in Dems not taking Corporate donations
When Soros dumps 18 bil on foundations and Silicon valley makes donation apps just for you, you don't have to.
And that's far from the only place it's happening.
In fact, I’ll have to check on the current one, but the one I worked on during state elections almost exclusively did small individual donations
It's nice PR.
We're not disagreeing about anything then.
Sure.
But I still hold the claim, that Soros can't just buy people and the party does concern itself with the far left base.
Soros is often aligned with the far left, too.
@Lagomaster24 I'm pretty sure the corporations and such are funneling their money in other ways however.
They take money from the party so maybe in that way
Out of sight out of mind thing maybe
PACs is my immediate guess.
And advertising.
