Flipping the House blue could be the single most powerful strategy to turn exciting campaign rhetoric into actual laws that change lives. It's time for Bernie supporters to decide: are you in this for the long haul to create the changes you truly want to see? Focusing on flipping the House into the Democratic category advances a lot of long-term strategic objectives of the Revolution. Flipping the House blue also gives a positive place to focus the many Bernie supporters who still have a strong dislike for Hillary and thus aren't enthusiastic to be active in the Presidential campaign. House Democrats are far more vulnerable in non-presidential election years due to lower turnout, so the candidates who did win entry to the House with Berner-backing would be motivated to not risk losing that backing two years later.
