Bernie Sanders Attracting 9500+ People at Madison Rally

[Mehmentum]

Crowd size means literally nothing.  Its not an indicator of anything other than the enthusiasm of a candidates core supporters, which is not at all related  to how well a candidate will do with the broader electorate.  The fact that we need to go over this again and again every single election is ridiculous.

If people are going to post a new thread every time Sanders has a rally, we should probably instead consolidate this into a mega-thread.

Comparing Sanders to Paul is ageist but the kind of lazy

Accusing your opponents of being ageist is lazy.  It doesn't even really make sense, Clinton is like 4 years younger than Sanders, and the Paul and Sanders campaigns have a lot of similarities without considering the ages of the candidates.

Nearly as many Democrats could not see themselves supporting Sanders as Democrats who could. When a full third of Democrats are dead set against your candidacy, that's a serious obstacle to a campaign.
