Democratic Primaries 2020 - Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

Did she and Bernie resolve whatever it was they were arguing about onstage after that one debate?

I mean her endorsing Biden would make a lot of sense. She nuked Bernie and Bloomberg pretty hard and barely took any shots that I remember at Biden.

Gotta say after a day to think about all this I am still pretty depressed about the outcome but I have tried to talk to as many Biden voters as I could trying to make sense of it and almost all of them say the same thing. I like Bernie’s policies better but Biden gives us the better chance in November. Seems like the nonstop media pounding of “Is the USA ready for a commie president” routine worked quite well. The fact that means we ended up with the rotted corpse of Joe Biden as the main opposition to Trump I don’t think has been considered or sank in for any of these people.

It’s officially a two horse race now (lol Tulsi but whatever). And it’s a relatively close race at that. Biden is more than capable of making multiple disqualifying gaffes in the next two weeks, and he will hopefully now have more attention on him. His record is awful. His brain is deteriorating. Bernie has some good states left. This fight isn’t over.

Biden should not make another public appearance. Talk about a negative freeroll.

Warren/Sanders alliance is going to troll both the toxic Berniebros and the angry Warren stans, I love it.

This particular toxic bro would be fucking ecstatic

MOMABBARD!

Yeah if she endorses Bernie, campaigns with him and is clear in telling her supporters to vote for him I’ll be super stoked to admit I was wrong about her. I’ll still be like what took you so long but that can be water under the bridge.

Nah, not even that, she was right to run through Super Tuesday. Pete and Amy being bribed last minute to knife Bernie was the anomaly.

If I am reading the reported results correctly, of the super Tuesday states, there are three that are not 98-100% reported. They are CA (93%, 271/415 delegates awarded), CO (79%, 39/66 delegates awarded), and UT (74%, 12/29 delegates awarded).

Bernie is winning all three of those states by wide margins and stands to pick up more delegates from each. This fight is not over.

When Biden loses they’ll just say, “Wow, Bernie really would have gotten crushed. We shouldn’t have picked someone as liberal as ol’ Joe, we should have gone with Bloomberg.” Then next time around they’ll be begging Kasich to switch over. Had two Democrats at the poker table tell me we need a moderate like Kasich to beat Trump. I said he was pretty far right, he just had a willingness to call out his own party sometimes, and they looked at me like I was a commie.

Well that’s disappointing.

So now I have to figure out what now. Beating Trump is obv important, but my assessment is that Bernie and Joe are about equal there. The next step is assessing who would push the country in a direction I like. With the nature of the political landscape, being too far right is a bigger problem than being too far left.

Therefore, I’m pleased to announce that as of this moment, I feel the Bern.

What are they? Of the next set, I’m seeing Washington and that’s about it. Maybe Idaho and North Dakota, but those are small. He’ll get blown out in Mississippi and Missouri and probably lose Michigan.

Later in March, expect blowouts in Florida and Georgia. Arizona, Illinois and Ohio should be competitive, but still tough.

I’m not seeing the path you’re seeing. I hope you’re right and I’m wrong.

Not me. Us. We’ve been fighting for you all along, glad to have you join the fight.

I imagine an offer of VP from Biden to Warren would be hard for her to pass up. Considering his rapid cognitive decline, there’s probably a much better than normal chance he won’t finish his term and his Vp will get to take over.

I mean the oppo on Grandpa Joe is endless. As soon as he wraps up the nom I fully expect his pro-segregation speeches to be played on a loop until the general election.

One thing about how this has played out is that Joe managed to take zero fire from anyone since last summer. Mostly by having a terrible campaign so no one bothered. If he wraps this up in the next few weeks he will be fully unprepared for the onslaught that is coming his way.

(Karl not you)

Biden’s son has admitted to being addicted to crack but made $500,000/year as a consultant for a oil company in Ukraine, a job in-which he did nothing, aka a bribe.

…and CNN can say “There is no evidence of wrong doing” until their face turns blue but nobody is buying it.

That will play well in the election with anyone who has had to do a background check for a job.

But sadly, Bernie Sanders is too big of a pussy to do what it takes to win.

WAAF.
