They're trying to win back viewers from MSNBC. Most normal centrists and Democrat people are going to want to get all in on Bernie.

CNN has a degree of leftish or realistic people who aren't totally in the CAP or never-trumper tank. MSNBC's entire roster is 24/7 Russiagaters, never-Trumpers, ex-Bush spokespeople and a bunch of paid Bloomberg people. CNN knows which way they need to go to keep viewership, I think today is the start of a groundshift and although I'll never pay for a cable subscription or help them get ad revenue, I'll be watching it a lot more going forward if they keep going this way.

MSNBC is irreemable dogshit, the only people who will still be watching it a month from now are #StillWithHers and KAnon psychopaths

MSNBC is only worth watching Ari Melber who seems to be a Bernie guy and generally is pretty smart except for the constant rap verses out of nowhere. Chris Hayes can be ok as well. Everyone else has lost their mind with the failure of impeachment and the rise of Bernie. Their anti-Sanders campaign has gotten so bad that it is just impossible to watch it.

CNN pushing a more facts based, non narrative reporting is probably the right way for them to go. I think the days of cable news being non-stop talking head spouting bullshit will probably end soon. What it will morph into will be the question.

Y'know, I think that as soon as the Bernie Inevitability is estaablished, we'll see a lot of pundits change their tune and support Bernie -- although with a bunch of "moderation" caveats. Whether this is tonight or after a SC win, that remains to be seen.

Primary Day Rain Isn’t Keeping Voters Away

A little bit of desert rain can’t keep the voters away in Las Vegas. Caucus sites are forging ahead despite the downpour, according to Clark County Democratic Party Chair Donna West.

“People don’t come out a lot of the time when it rains here because our roads get very slick,” West told NPR. “They didn’t stay home today and they certainly turned out with enthusiasm. Some were waiting at some locations for hours to vote.”

West said she was personally working the voter registration tables recently in Clark County, where Las Vegas is located. The feedback on the process was “phenomenally positive,” she said. “[They] had a good time, which is what we want people to do when they come caucus."

West also noticed a large number of voters who were either registering for the first time or changing parties to vote as Democrats.

“We had five Republicans switching parties and more than a dozen Independents,” she said. “They found a candidate that spoke to them.”

same-day voter registration? what foul witchery is this

One of the CNN panelists made the point that she always comes out early for her speeches because she knows the media are keen to fill up time so they'll give her a large potential audience to speak to.

no way, she's kneecapping Buttigieg by staying in. They have a ton of crossover voters, Bernie doesn't have much for crossover from Amy and literally zero from Pete according to the last second and third choice polls

Both of their supporters will bend the knee and vote for Bernie in the general though according to another poll

I don't see this happening on MSNBC. They have a LOT of hacks like Jason Johnson, Jennifer Rubin and Neera Tanden on as paid contributors with likely big contracts. The only paid contributor they have that could even be considered moderately leftist is Sam Seder but only Chris Hayes has him on at 1am, he's never on the big shows.

Surrogates will keep showing up but the paid contributor types basically don't exist on MSNBC

Yeah but she led with the "Some people think the way to win this race is by being as POLARIZING as the president"

Which is that dumbass line of attack on Bernie where he excludes anyone who isn't with him 100%. Buttigeg tried it at the debate and has been saying it in interviews for weeks.

Only thing that makes sense is she thinks she can run in the future. Warren and Pete have no shot either and they must be thinking the same. Warren might legitimately be delusional though.
