Its like a wet dream for you Tim, congratulations I guess. See how this all turns out. I hope you are right.

More a problem with the messenger or messaging vs the message.

Something needs done in the US obviously but the Dems don't have an ideal candidate.
 
Super Tuesday seems to favor states for Biden.
Yes they do... in the sense that Biden seems to be winning them... but if you are talking about demographics/early polling... Massachusetts and Minnesota certainly didn't seem to favor Biden before tonight.

Well, it's certainly better for any candidate I might be working for in the fall, that's for sure, but I dunno about wet dream status.

I'm guessing they worked out it's Biden vs Sanders and are voting.

Warren's done.
 
Biden/Warren is the ticket unless Bloomberg's delegates make him the only path to the first ballot nomination. Tonight might crush Bloomberg's campaign though. He got wolloped in North Carolina, and they've been building that up as his demonstration of viability state. I don't think they have a backup.

I heard Bloomberg took American Samoa, so there's that.

Not gonna lie, I snickered.
 
Bloomberg for Samoa!!!!

I'm actually surprised our friend Tulsi Gabbard didn't take it, given hometown advantage - she was actually born there. It's actually a bigger slap than Warren losing Massachusetts.

Edit: Ninja'ed by @plarq :ninja:
 
A Biden win today indicates a very good chance that he wins a bunch of states on Tuesday that have similar demographics and wakes up Wednesday Morning running a strong second place. That probably knocks out at least one of the not really contenders from the main lane. Go ahead and hope, but don't let hope turn into pretending.

Quoted from Saturday. The early withdrawals changed things, and it is now conceivable that Biden wakes up in first place tomorrow instead of a strong second, and that may conceivably knock out the last contender in Biden's lane.
 
Few voters, it's cheap to buy... I mean get elected.

Along the same lines, Bloomberg carried Dixville Notch in the New Hampshire primary (despite not being on the ballot), apparently because he called all five voters there personally.

And, er, the reason I know this is, Dixville Notch is the "town" where they all get up at 12:01AM of Primary Day to cast the first primary ballots (i.e. Iowa's caucusing notwithstanding) of the presidential campaign every four years.
 
Exit polling in California shows Sanders by ten. That's nowhere near the blowout he needs I don't think. That would have been good until Biden won Virginia so big and kept Texas close.
 
I will note FTR that Minnesota is the one and only state that voted against Reagan in 1984, and the one and only state that voted against Reagan twice. Minnesota is about as deep blue liberal-progressive as it gets.

Bernie was killing it in polling in Minnesota... Biden didn't even bother campaigning there... as in he spent ZERO dollars in Minnesota...

The fact that Bernie inexplicably lost what was supposed to be a layup in Minnesota is extremely significant. Klobuchar reportedly mobilized her whole staff to get out the vote for Biden... you better believe she is going to come collecting later.
