How much money did the DNC or its satellite offices spend on conducting that poll. How much money lined the pockets of fancy people in nice suits to construct and disseminate that poll.

How much time was spent in meetings parsing the data and trying to construct a narrative that conforms to the preexisting strategy of inertial opposition and uninspired framing.

How many responses were omitted or altered because they "won't play well with the Baileys".

How many gdamn fundraising texts did it take to finance that poll.

How many votes were lost because people are sick of treading water while our neighbors drown.

Sigh.

We will win!
