CodeForSanders is great and all, but what I really hope comes from it is not just a big death march push toward the mirage of a Sanders nomination (face it: his chances, while not exactly zero, are pretty close to a rounding error), but the establishment of a permanent organization and a framework for working to change the political landscape. This was the big tragedy of Obama's first campaign: they built a great, energized, and well-organized volunteer organization, and after the win, shut it down.

Rounding error? I thought he was already polling within a single digit of Clinton, and his rallies draw the biggest crowds of any candidate. I think his chances are better than those of the vast majority of Republican candidates.
