      New: Once a front-runner, Bernie Sanders' contempt for the Democratic establishment and traditional campaign tools won him adoring fans, but undermined his path to the White House. An in-depth look at a campaign that rose and fell very quickly:https://www.huffpost.com/entry/bernie-sanders-campaign-retrospective-2020-democratic-primary_n_5e837ecfc5b603fbdf4a8782?ncid=engmodushpmg00000004 …

      Some news in here: --Jeff Weaver threatened to quit in May if Bernie wouldn't fund new polling. --Ady Barkan tried to broker talks between Bernie and Warren. --Bernie aides prepared a line on Biden's "nothing will fundamentally change" for June debate. He didn't use it.

      Some aides were frustrated by campaign manager Faiz Shakir's decision to travel with Bernie, arguing it hampered management of big campaign. Shakir's top deputy, Ari Rabin-Havt, was also always on the road with Bernie. Last full-time prez campaign for both was John Kerry.pic.twitter.com/XKIL1hr8P9

      Mark Longabaugh, a consultant and veteran of the 2016 effort, recommended Sanders affiliate as a Democrat and begin campaign with a big speech on race in Chicago. Sanders would end up doing neither. Longabaugh left the campaign early on due to strategic differences.pic.twitter.com/S9dijxA8a6

      Among the calls the campaign did not make: Virginia Del. Marcia "Cia" Price, a young Black woman and the only state lawmaker to endorse Sanders in 2016, never heard from them.

      Sanders' team also believes the Warren tussle inflicted permanent damage on the campaign, claiming it prompted a 10-point drop in support from women nationwide.

          As has already been reported, a faction of Bernie allies wanted the candidate to cast himself in a more mainstream light, including by tying himself to FDR and the New Deal. One sign he didn't: In the N.H. debate, the two candidates to mention FDR were Biden and Klobuchar.pic.twitter.com/PCwpmZY7Mo

          Another sign he didn't: Sanders did not regularly volunteer information or otherwise tout his pragmatic record and bipartisan accomplishments. Last cycle, he went on TV about VA reform bill; this cycle he promoted it in a YouTube video with 26,000 views.pic.twitter.com/CSVbgXYm23

          Believe it or not, the campaign had hoped the now infamous "60 Minutes" interview after the Nevada caucus would make Sanders seem presidential and reach older voters (the show's viewership). It ended up kicking off a multi-day news cycle about Fidel Castro.pic.twitter.com/gS7vWIkBdg

          I looked at the ad figures in @kantar_media. The Sanders campaign spent nearly $7 million on ads in Iowa starting in October, and just over $1 million on ads in South Carolina -- starting in February.

          Some state lawmakers in South Carolina were annoyed that they didn't have a more prominent role in promoting the campaign in-state. Again, a play on the motto: "The motto was ‘Not me. Us,’ but sometimes the feeling of ‘us’ became questionable.”pic.twitter.com/4MwrNrA0YB

          Another sign of campaign indecision and disarray: Sanders kept his distance from Turner's op-ed in an S.C. newspaper attacking Biden's civil rights record. But he saw it and approved it before it went to print. (Attached are his comments about it in the N.H. debate.)pic.twitter.com/ZG9Cgg4uTa

          There was no plan for a moderate consolidation. And the professed strategy of expanding the electorate -- in a way that benefited Bernie disproportionately -- never panned out. “There was a strategy to get to 30% and not to 50%.”pic.twitter.com/TbK67KN4bw

          An overarching theme in the story: When expert campaign advice made Sanders uncomfortable, his discomfort usually took precedence. When he let experts do their thing, as in green-lighting polling in May and unlocking funding for TV ads in October, his fortunes generally rose.pic.twitter.com/NYITvGWdzT

          ... I didn't include the latter bit, cus @AOC was damned if she did! Too little, too much. Her endorsement is what put the campaign in any kind of contention. “The timing of it was amazing. Literally and figuratively the campaign was on life support," @tulchinresearch

          Scholten, who earned statewide -- and even national -- fame for nearly unseating Steve King, credits the campaign for energizing new voters in the 4th, but says he saw less persuasion. He also felt the campaign lacked the warm touch that he appreciated when he sees Bernie live.

          Scholten, who still won't reveal for whom he caucused, owed Bernie quite a bit for the support he received in the 2018 midterms. Bernie held a series of rallies for Scholten across the 4th district as part of a nine-state midterm swing in October 2018:https://www.huffpost.com/entry/bernie-sanders-2020-presidential-preview-south-carolina-iowa_n_5bd21cf1e4b0a8f17ef5bf9c …
