Hi Nathan. Huge fan of you and Roll Call. Always appreciate your twitter responsiveness too. I've tried to ask this a couple times, but I don't do great at articulate my question, so I'll try again: There seems to be a clear disparity between generic ballot polling and Democratic performance. Obviously generic ballot can't be applied everywhere, but what is perhaps the largest reason for the Democratic over-performance we've seen? Does the generic ballot fail to consider new voters or voters who don't typically participate often? Or am I perhaps not digging deep enough into the polling to check for signs like enthusiasm? Or finally, is it just too far out, and am I taking too much away from elections without outsized influence that likely won't be replicated in November? Hope that's not too broad. Thanks!

I recently drunkenly walked right past you in Austin, obnoxiously telling my friend "that's Hannibal Buress! Right there! See?! He just walked past us!" Assuming you don't remember, is that sort of thing annoying or mildly flattering? Either way, I'm a big fan, and... Sorry.
