Calling out AIPAC is NOT antisemitic. The left must oppose the corrupting role of money in politics, whatever the source. Conflating criticism of AIPAC with antisemitism is deeply cynical (especially from those who fund fascist insurrectionists). #Michiganprimary
Should we be careful to avoid antisemitic tropes when criticizing AIPAC and Israel? Definitely. But we should not allow the discomfort inherent in addressing a thorny topic prevent us from speaking out about the corruption of our political process.
I know for some Jews, hearing the terms “AIPAC” and “money in politics,” especially when spoken someone who is not Jewish, is inherently triggering. But don’t always assume a bad faith motive when the criticism is rooted in undeniable fact.
*Early* exit polling of Democratic #MichiganPrimary voters: about half say that U.S. economic system needs complete overhaul with closer to four in ten saying minor changes 
Most #MichiganPrimary Democratic voters favor replacing private health insurance with government plan, per early exit polling

That said, beating Trump more important than agreeing on the issues for most #MichiganPrimary Democratic voters... theme we've seen again and again throughout primaries

After hanging out in #Detroit's predominantly Latino neighborhood the last two days, I was struck by how so many people kept telling me that they're all supporting @BernieSanders and that people should step back for a minute and wait until #MichiganPrimary is over next Tuesday.
These voters, all these Latinos (even older ones), about 10-15 of them, shared a general view that #SuperTuesday had them thinking of what their vote will be, but that they will at least vote on Tuesday but they are not sure if they will vote in November.
They all said that @JoeBiden has a lot of work to do to repair his relationship with Latinos, yes, even in Southwest Detroit. They were adamant about Obama/Biden admin deportation legacy. Remember, Detroit is a border city.
1. Until @FiveThirtyEight unlocks the poll, I'm going with pre-SuperTuesday data. Here is how it looked for this coming Tuesday's #MichiganPrimary. You don't have to be good at math to see what @MikeBloomberg suspending is likely to do for Biden. So Joe looks to me likely to win.
2. Then the campaign rolls into #StPatricksDay and Biden should steamroll in these states:
Florida
Illinios
Ohio.
The only one that @SenSanders has a shot on March 17 is #ArizonaPrimary and I would not bet the farm on that if I were Sanders.

3. And then it gets really bad for Bernie.
He doesn't have a path. His followers need to be ready for what appears likely. I sympathize and I think we all should just disengage for a bit. Next week Wednesday we should talk about beating Trump. And fixing what's wrong with US.

And with those early projections, we estimate Joe Biden to now be in the delegate lead nationally...
We just projected Biden as the winner in North Carolina, along with an expanded delegate lead #SuperTuesday
Updated delegate estimates as of 8 pm: Biden's increased lead mainly due to Alabama, where we project him to win
