THE Super Tuesday Mega-Gameday Sweat

Three weeks ago, the campaign said it was “poised” to finish in the top-two in eight of the 14 states that vote on Super Tuesday. She didn’t in any, including her home state of Massachusetts. (California votes are still being counted but she is currently running a distant-fourth.)

This past weekend, the campaign and allies predicted that the field winnowing would redound to Warren’s benefit. It didn’t.

All the lols

Crazy how Clinton campaign people sabotaged the two women frontrunners right when they were peaking

That’ll happen wayyyyy before Nov 4th. Sometime between now and the next primary, where eDems/pundits will whine about Bernie Bros not getting behind Biden soon enough and weakening his chances vs Florida Man.

Yeah if you guys aren’t ready for it, prepare to hear daily calls for Bernie to drop out and unite the party starting approximately today. Oh wait it already happened last night.

Fuck it. Bernie gotta stay in until the end.

If Elizabeth fucking Warren can stay in despite having no shot at winning, then Bernie can too.

Bernie has to stay in because there is a legitimate shot Biden isn’t able to speak by July. He is declining rapidly.

I can hope, right?

Amy Klobuchar apparently got a delegate despite dropping out before Super Tuesday.

lol Democratic Party forever and always

Anyway, it’s a dog fight between Bernie and Biden now. Bernie’s gotta know that it ain’t the size of the dog in the fight though. Gotta go to the end no matter what.

All my life people have been telling me I need to vote for the lesser of two evils because SCOTUS, because down ballot races, because the alternatives are worse, etc. etc.

Republicans currently control:

  • The Presidency (and probably the next one too)
  • 5/9 SCOTUS seats (probably soon to be 6)
  • 7/13 Federal appeals courts
  • 53/100 Senate seats
  • 26 governorships
  • 29 state legislatures

In my lifetime, inequality has skyrocketed. Real wages have flatlined. Incarceration rates are shockingly higher than any other developed nation on earth. Gun violence is beyond dystopian. The climate is already ruined. All our freedoms have been eroded. Privacy is gone. Everyone under 50 has collective financial expectations worse than their parents. Dying people routinely have to beg for money for medical treatment. We are still actively fighting wars that serve absolutely no purpose.

The only two bright spots are that gay people can get married and it’s legal to smoke weed in a handful of states. That’s pretty much the full fucking extent of lefitivist progress over the past half century.

And now y’all are telling me I have to vote for another centrist Dem because the alternatives might be worse? Almost everything has literally been getting worse my entire fucking life. If the Democrats want my vote in November they need a better argument, because the one they’ve been using is demonstrable bullshit.

Well, at least there is a legitimate chance Biden will die from covid-19 by July. Not great, but definitely non-zero.

Also COVID19. Bernie needs to stay in to leverage some kind of concessions out of team Biden.

Cuellar is the archetype Republican in Dem clothing. The Texas Observer had an article on him. Basically cut a deal with the Republicans when they gerrymandered to give him a seat. Still lost if I remember correctly, ran again and some how some ballots were ‘found’ that helped him win. He basically votes as a Republican on everything, but he’s worked with Republicans and establishment Dems to bring in a lot of bacon and has consolidated the political structure around him and his family so no one would dare run against him. His siblings are now in political positions around the county.

Also a ton of sanctimonious, “Dems need to reach out to more people and not be so extreme” as he’s raking in the dough from the Kochs. He really is the worst.

Really looking forward to Bernie being blamed for Biden losing because he stayed in the race until April or something.

Nobody sees the irony of pre-complaining about Bernie bro’s being blamed for him not dropping out to support the front runner literally 12 hours after a ton of posts blaming warren for not dropping out to support Bernie.

Difference is that one person actually has a chance to win while the other exists solely to fuck over Bernie.
