For Trump, MN will test strength of national momentum. For Sanders, it's badly needed win. My #mncaucus preview: http://strib.mn/1QkPHla
Minnesota caucuses brings Super Tuesday presidential energy to state
All top contenders but Donald Trump have visited.

Jacquelyn Martin, Associated Press
Upon arriving in Rochester on Saturday night, Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., spoke to members of the traveling media about his loss to Hillary Clinton in the South Carolina primary.
.............The four remaining top contenders from the two parties all have poured months of time and campaign resources into winning Minnesotas March 1 caucuses. Thousands of party faithful are expected to pack voting sites on Tuesday night with Minnesotas voting among the dozen caucuses and primaries nationally that make up this years pivotal Super Tuesday.
On the Democratic side, both Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders have made multiple Minnesota stops, amassed impressive volunteer forces and taken to the TV and radio airwaves as they battled to the last minute for support. Sanders has lavished the most personal attention on Minnesota of any candidate from either party, swinging through Hibbing on Friday and Rochester on Saturday evening as he tries to peel off a badly needed win over Clinton in a state his campaign views as friendly turf......................
................Right now its just too tight to tell, state DFL Party Chair Ken Martin said of Clinton vs. Sanders. In his view, Clinton has assembled a superior get-out-the-vote operation but Sanders has unleashed more organic energy. Martin expects good turnout, but doesnt think it will exceed the 2008 record, when Clinton finished a distant second to Sen. Barack Obama.
.....................
Weekend campaigning
As a crowd awaited Sanders appearance at the Mayo Civic Center in Rochester, an organizer for the senator asked how many people signed for a get out the caucus shift. Only a smattering of hands went up.
Not enough hands, the woman said. The reality is, its awesome youre here, but if you really love Bernie ... we need you to sign up for these shifts. She said it wasnt enough to bring themselves and the person standing next to them out to caucus. What matters is getting your whole neighborhood out to caucus.
Besides Sanders stumping, Chelsea Clinton was due to campaign here for her mother along with a handful of other high-profile surrogates.....................

On Super Tuesday, Sanders will be competitive in MA, MN, CO, and OK. After his rout in SC, doesn't he NEED to win all 4?
