One interesting and potentially good thing about this stuff where Bernie is getting hurt by re-alignment is that it means he might actually do better in regular non-caucus primaries. In 2016 this wasn't the case, but this time around he gets hurt because the non-viable people mostly consolidate with other candidates (whereas that won't happen during a regular primary).

Or at least their own phone tree, I mean why the gently caress not? Sounds like Bernie did great, Pete and Warren did well, and Biden ate poo poo.

In many ways the best possible result imo (knock on wood of course)!

How many hundreds of thousands of dollars did Robbie Mook get to gently caress up an app worse than what about 4 high schoolers could have done as their capstone project in computer science

I mean, God drat, there just isn't that much raw data to take in in the first place, this is pathetic

I'll obviously support whoever gets the Democratic nomination, but man are a bunch of Sanders supporters going to be in for a massive surprise once he's running a race where the opposition isn't intentionally soft balling him because they want/need to get support from his fans. Everyone complaining about how mean Hillary is being to Sanders is in for a massive wake-up call if the Republicans ever start taking him seriously.

If Bernie was going to underperform like some people have been hinting towards, then this is good that the results won’t get released until people are no longer paying attention and Bernie can move on to New Hampshire, where he’s dominating in the polls.

Moralists don't really *have* beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child's toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded.

So normally Iowa has at least a minor winnowing effect and some candidates drop out, but I don't think anyone is going to drop before New Hampshire after this clusterfuck of a caucus. We apparently won't even have results until tomorrow so the normal media cycle that might result in a candidate or two bowing out is disrupted and they're all gonna keep riding on through.

ehhh, honestly partisanship is a powerful enough force, and there are so many unknowns, that any democrat probably has roughly the same chance as far as we know. Vote for whoever you sincerely want to be president, don't try and game it out by appealing to some hypothetical swing voter.

Compare this to the reaction from the dem establishment when Obama won IA in 2008. It was a celebratory atmosphere- sure some of the die hard Clinton supporters weren't on board but it was like a coronation of a beloved prince.

Now we get Sanders, who will almost surely win, and that same establishment will just shrug and walk away. All because they might have to pay more in taxes. I'm glad to be celebrating with my fellow comrades but man, I was holding out hope that the Party could muster at least a token effort at enthusiasm. I was foolish.
