"Sanders' focus on the GOP debates as a tool for garnering support is not new."

...................................................................................................................................................................
COMMENTS:
*  First campaign I've ever donated to in my life. No regrets.
*  Bernie is the solution, not another Republican problem!
*  You guys can fight it out now. I'm going to wait until after we have a nominee and put all of my money and effort into getting that person elected President, because the LAST thing we need is a Republican controlled White House and Congress. The Supreme Court is conservative enough now. We don't need one or two potential other conservs on it.
*  Is there any way we can get both House and Senate Democrat controlled? I just can't stand looking at Paul Ryan for four more years.
*  There's a crap load of seats up for grabs so yes, in the Senate we can make gains and retake the majority (I expect that to happen). As far as the House, with gerrymandering that will be tough. That said, there's enough House seats up for grabs to filp that chamber but I wouldn't put money on it. Just turn out and we'll be fine.
*   where did the GOP debate audience come from? are they going to be tested for rabies?
     *  Rabies won't go near a GOP SC crowd.

Bernie Sanders Has A Solution For When People Get Upset Over The GOP Debate
That'll do it.
By Paige Lavender, January 14, 2016

Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders has a solution for those who get frustrated during Thursday's Republican presidential debate: donate to his campaign.

As BuzzFeed's Evan McMorris-Santoro reported, Sanders' team launched drinking game-style fundraiser ahead of the debate, sending the following message to those who signed up to receive texts from the campaign:
Watch the GOP Debate tonight & donate $20 to Bernie through your ActBlue Express account. Simply REPLY to this msg with the word NOW every time they upset you!
Sanders' presidential campaign has broken fundraising records, racking up high numbers of donors contributing under $25. The Washington Post reported Wednesday that Sanders has seen an increase in donations amid recent attacks from his rival, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Sanders' focus on the GOP debates as a tool for garnering support is not new. The Vermont senator has live-tweeted several debates so far, slamming Republicans for their arguments against climate change, Planned Parenthood and more.
