"People just to damned lazy to get out and vote."

Not the Democrats. We just 14-16K turn out in the Ada County (Boise), Idaho Dem Caucus. This comes the day after 7K turned out to see Sanders speak at Boise State. Yeah. In "redder than red" Idaho!

Meanwhile, two weeks ago, on Republican primary night, maybe 150 came out to the results party at a hotel ballroom.

Republicans, you don't have this thing in the bag! Get your holier-than-thou heads out of your lazy a**es and DO SOMETHING!!! Right freakin' now, or it'll be 2008 all over again!

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

Meanwhile we have this...

"In 2008, Democrats had the historic turnout numbers. GOP voters, meanwhile, came out in modest numbers in 2008 and 2012. But this year, Democrats are seeing their turnout figures fall off since 2008. Republicans, meanwhile, are coming out in droves.

Republicans continued to watch their turnout skyrocket in last night's five huge primary states. Turnout grew by 16 percent in North Carolina over 2012's total — and that was the most modest bump. In Ohio, more than 2 million people cast votes, growth of nearly 68 percent over the state's 2012 GOP number. (Missouri saw growth of 270 percent, but that state also didn't hold a presidential preference vote in 2012, which likely helped depress turnout." Democrats, meanwhile, saw their turnout drop in all five states. Ohio posted the most dramatic dropoff, at nearly 50 percent.
