Amy Klobuchar's success has come so suddenly that her campaign appears to be somewhat unprepared for the Nevada caucuses.

It’s a whole different Democratic presidential race in Nevada, where union members and voters of color are a large part of the electorate.Klobuchar urged the crowd to bring companions to their caucuses next weekend.

Interviews with voters at the events showed that Klobuchar’s notable performance in the New Hampshire debate and her strong finish in the primary have carried over to Nevada and sharpened their interest in her.“I think Joe Biden was originally my choice; he was going to bring us to the promised land,” said Stuart Rubin, a 62-year-old Las Vegas retiree, as he held a green Klobuchar sign. “Now other people are stepping up around him.

Scott Justes, a 58-year-old Las Vegas independent who works in finance and sales, said he’d been planning to sit out the Democratic primary until he saw Klobuchar’s performance in New Hampshire. “I liked her before,” Justes said, “but it’s hard to back someone you know is going to lose for sure, but now she’s giving me the impression she’s going to win.”

What is your definition of “sudden” and “success”...she is a plodder gather up supporters as others drop out and fail out and hasn’t finished higher than third.

Bernie Sanders pressured the DNC to keep & expand VoterSuppression caucuses, today via MSNBC it was revealed if your five choices aren’t viable your VOTE IS NOT COUNTED!😳 Choose every Democrats except - (I) Sanders2020! Don’t reward Voter Suppression tactics! Nevada

She's not only unprepared for campaign, she's ignorant about presidency.

Reminder people. She came in third place. Third place

She hasn’t finished higher than third and will now have to deal with people of color who she doesn’t poll well with. “Success”

She finished 3rd in the 43rd most populous state.

Two Dems scammed

What? Granted she received a good percentage of votes, but Amy didn’t win. She came in third in New Hampshire. One should reserve the word “success” for tying first place or for the winner.

She Doesn't even know the name of the Mexican president!! Talk about unprepared 🙄🤣

She is very nice smart. But had it w the no healthcare. OZ is greatest country on earth imo.

Amy is s great choice if you’re tired of Prosperity. Ready for plain oatmeal and grits She’s your gal!!

That’s ok. Turns out, the Nevada DNC is also unprepared for the Nevada caucuses, too.

Sounds like she was expecting to lose and never planned on being relevant.

I still can’t believe she ate salad with a dirty fork then beat her intern

I liked her for about a day.
