Wow. Now I feel like Bernie is done, which is how I felt about Biden on Friday.
BonJons, now what ya gonna do if that happens?
Not buying that, but if it's true Bernie is realistically on life support.
The gap does appear to be closing considerably, and Bernie was buoyed quite a bit by the Austin vote which came in VERY early. Lots of outstanding votes in the Houston DMA, which looks to be leaning Biden.

Biden should push for Jim Clyburn to be the first African American Speaker of the House as a thank you. The African American vote coalescing around Biden in such strong numbers saved him
The DNC rallying around Biden as the chosen one won him MN and MA and made him even in ME with Bernie where he might eek out a small popular vote win
Latinos and Millennials are not impressed. Texas is going Bernie and Politico is calling CA for Bernie based off exit polls. If Bernie can do very well in CA he could claim a lot of momentum as the post Super Tuesday delegate leader.
Bernie's Fidel comment could come back and bite him in 2 weeks. Next week should be a bit of a draw. Bernie should do well in Idaho, Washington, and the North Dakota Caucus while Biden should dominate Mississippi and Missouri. Michigan will be a state that Bernie would want but you gotta think that Biden would be the favorite. Then in 2 weeks we have Arizona, which should favor Bernie, but then Illinois, Ohio, and Florida. Bernie may have had a chance in Florida but with his Castro comment, Biden could really dominate in 2 weeks and pull away
Bernie mopping up in Utah. Kind of odd. A Mormon, very conservative state, but the Democrats (and the SLC paper) are far left.

Democrats there are a very small group, and the more right the R's lean, the more left the few D's lean.

ME, they are 27 votes apart with 60% in.
TX down to 6,000 vote lead for Sanders with 43% in.
That Data for Progress poll on 2/29 showed:
Sanders 30, Biden 21, Bloomberg 21, Warren 13, Buttigieg 9, Klobuchar 5
On 3/3 is showed:
Sanders 28, Biden 30, Bloomberg 20, Warren 15, Buttigieg 4, Klobuchar 3
All changes within the margin of error, but the 2 who dropped out and Biden. I'm guessing the polls saying Buttigieg's support was split were probably wrong. Klob and Steyer were pretty insignificant, but with mayor Pete dropping out, there were a good number of votes up for grabs. Seems like Biden got most of them.
Biden's erratic behavior continues. I don't think it is real. I think it is an act or drug induced.
My conspiracy theory is that Biden is being set up to win the nomination. Then he will be replaced via a 25th amendment type of move for health reasons.
If they did that at the convention, then it would open the spot to the party's actual pick. They might do it in such a way as to install the VP pick as the candidate.
Or, they might simply let him fall apart after winning the nomination, and use the issue to claim the whole election invalid.

Biden could stand on stage and have someone to pull strings to make his mouth move. He will still have a better shot at beating Sanders.
Sanders was done as soon as the machine saw him as a real threat. Unlike Trump Sanders has no really appeal to middle America. Or a plan for middle America. Or a plan for working class American.
Hell Biden could be this guy and more people will vote for him than Sanders. Honestly he's not that far away...

I think we have some shenanigans in the works.
Biden's VP pick will be fascinating
The Dems are so afraid of losing the AA vote that I can guarantee it will be a black woman. Either Big Mike, Kamala or Stacy the Hutt

Oh no. Remember Stacy bragging about being president? Maybe that is the plan.
If this comes down to Biden vs Trump, it will, those of you that think what Biden said over the last 2 months matters are fooling yourself. When he wins the ticket no one in the media is going to call Biden out on all the off the wall things he says. As we seen over the past 2 weeks...
democrats dont care if he's crazy, acting like he's crazy or dont know which election he's running for. The media is going to push Biden and make him look like the 2nd coming of Reagan, JFK and Obama. Especially in those battle ground states, the ones that really matter...
Trump, the racist, will be shouted so often the closer we get to Nov. Every little thing Trump says that can be twisted will be. Biden can come out threaten to stop fracking, shutdown all coal, and open the border, on the campaign trial. The press will never question him on it and it will never get the air time. Hell Trump can say black Friday is going to be huge. The media will scream, racist, because Trump said black. Some people are getting too caught up in twitter reactions...the same way democrats did with Trump. Causing them to believe Hillary was going to win easily.
Sanders going down like he has and democrats falling in line for Biden...is not good news for Trump

They can't put the cap on social media. The Biden gaffes will be meme'd and video clipped a million times. The media won't cover them, but Trump will tweet them. He will bring them up in the debates. They can't hide them. And there are a bunch of them.

Yep, good post. This is a 50/50 election.
It won't be close. Real investigations into Ukraine corruption are going to get started just as soon as it is clear that Biden is the guy and Hunter and Joe are going to truly be exposed.
(03-04-2020 12:51 AM)shere khan Wrote: Not seen anything. Did Sanders get cucked like his supporters?
It was pretty clear after tonight that Warren stayed in to keep Bernie from getting Maine, Massachusetts, and Minnesota, and Bloomberg siphoned off his support in the South and West. Warren cost him states. Bloomberg cost him delegates. No doubt that Bloomberg siphoned off some from Biden as well but those who were uncomfortable with both Biden's comprehension and Sander's politics voted Bloomberg. Warren and Bloomberg have served their function. Super Tuesday is over and Sanders will likely pick up Oregon and Washington and possibly Arizona and New Mexico. But Biden will take much of the Northern Midwest and Plains states and maybe Pennsylvania. Neither may have enough.
