What BBN said about it

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorKansas hasn't sent a Democrat to the Senate in nearly a century, and ABC News is asking how Adam Hamilton plans to change that.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorCalista Morrow built a morning routine around it.
Calista MorrowChip, it's the Senate Sunrise Routine. Five a.m. wake-up, cold plunge, then this wheat juice, which is the heartland in a jug.
Calista MorrowAnd that's the whole stack.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSo let me ask you: what is Hamilton's plan for winning the race?
Calista MorrowHydration. Voters can feel when a candidate is hydrated, and you can save ten percent with my code, SENATE10, at checkout.
Calista MorrowAnd that's the whole stack, plus a mint.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorTen percent off what, exactly? He's a megachurch pastor running as a Democrat, and the question is about his campaign.
Calista MorrowOff everything. I mean, the site is down right now, but the code is very real.
Calista MorrowAnd that's the whole stack, a sunrise, a ballot and a bamboo toothbrush.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorBamboo toothbrush.
Calista MorrowKansas voters brush twice a day, Chip. That's a turnout model. I built it myself, from the headline.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorFrom the headline. So you haven't read the race coverage, and the plan you're selling is a juice.
Calista MorrowI read the first paragraph, and it had the word flip in it. I do flips. Morning mobility, sound bath, a whole flip flow.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThen one more time, for the viewers at home: where do they put in this code?
Calista MorrowIt's FLIP. All caps. It expired in nineteen thirty-something, but it's the only thing in Kansas that has ever been that close.
