I'm guessing Biden is going to overperform his polling assuming that the bulk of voters who decided recently are going with him. I guess Democratic primary voters want to commit party suicide.

That seems likely.

It's weird. I've been called a fascist here but would vote for Biden or Sanders over Trump. Not that I can.
The Dems don't have an ideal candidate but they might not need one.
Even with Biden status quo 2015 is still an improvement over Trumpism. Kicks the can down the street for 4 or 8 years and that's still an improvement.
If the DNC is smart assuming Biden wins they need to offer Sanders supporters something. Healthcare seem popular.
Vice Versa if Sanders wins. He won't be able to get everything he wants but once again healthcare seems the great compromise.
If they don't not get the Senate not much will change regardless.

Bernie has lost. Again.
There's not much more I can say or contribute. I've said my pieces. Enjoy Biden, Democrats.
Well, meh. Let Biden win, let the New Democrats work to fix Trump and Trumpism's smears and marks on the wall, let the way be paved for a Younger Bernie, maybe one with a bit more clout and smarts, to come later.

Sure it is not about specific legislation, but then, what destruction are you claiming will happen?
You said "the destruction Biden will be causing". How is that not a prediction? I was just trying to give you an opportunity to explain the "destruction". Choose some other metric if you want.
Please quote my post that made a prediction?

Money matters, he probably ran ads there.
Any websites updating results frequently that aren't Fox?
Cracking up at a WP headline. Voters in the NE more liberal than the South.
Well no **** Sherlock.

CNN's hilarious take: Bloomberg wins American Samoa, the only place voting Super Tuesday that he did not visit.

Half a billion dollars to have Elizabeth Warren humiliate you lol.
Say what you will a out Biden he didn't try to buy the nomination and isn't so opportunistic.

The big surprise is Virginia. Big win in Alabama, expected. Solid but not spectacular win in North Carolina, expected. But Virginia should have been close.

West coast and key East Coast states are not in yet so not clear. He's definitely doing well.
Warren needs to drop out after tonight if Bernie's going to have a shot.

Flip side, if Mr 'I'm-only-doing-this-because-Biden-is-weak' gets a nose full of reality and drops out Sanders is in real trouble, Warren or no Warren.

Bernie should do well there.
Unfortunately for him in the general it's not where the Dems need to win in the general.

Yep, socialist having trouble in red and purple states. Never saw that coming.

I’m actually quite surprised at Biden’s comeback here, at least so far as these preliminary results go! But I should hold back judging anything until we actually know anything.

It looks like Bloomberg is not even close anywhere outside his big victory in American Samoa. If that holds this could actually happen, unless he is really committed to spending a big pile of money trying to buy the VP slot on the ticket.
