    It honestly gives me chills that Democrats responded to organic democratic efforts. We finally had a real Primaries, and look at that enthusiasm.

    I’ll say it again and again: Enthusiasm is contagious. Every one of these people are amped up; they will then turn around and talk to their family and friends. They will remind more apathetic people they know who lean left and convince them to register and vote. Because their morale is high, they’re going to spend a little more time combating trolls on social media instead of letting them run their mouths unchecked and spreading misinformation unchallenged. They may be able to even reach out to their uncle or parent who leans right and gain a convert here and there… Again, because excitement is contagious.

    I’ve been saying this for years that this is how Democrats win.
