i'm closing my eyes and imagining the absolute apoplectic energy the Liz Lads would be kama hame ha spirit bombing at Sanders Siblings if their positions were reversed: Warren the "progressive wing" frontrunner with Bernie lagging and eating poo poo in Vermont but hanging in there just to be a spoiler

Hmmm...we should do the same to them!

lol they are going to treat his public appearances with the level of choreography of a circ de soleil performance if they want to keep his cognative decline under wraps now that they are trying to have him absorb the other heads of the establishment dem croneneburg monster and stand more or less 1v1 with bernie

Yeah, you just gotta wait and hope for bidens brain to pop him outta the race again.

The issue I guess is what happens when bloomberg or Warren drop out and Biden gets even more of the share of the moderate vote, he's basically got two more mushroom boosts chambered.

Bernie beating up Biden by more than 15 points in California is very much possible at this point after all of the early voting and absentee ballots are counted, plus Bernie's probably viable in every state above 15% that Biden took. A close Texas victory for Bernie and delegate tie or edge is likely too. This is nowhere near over. Not even close, especially since it looks like Bloomberg and Warren (lmao) will be outside viability in multiple states.

If she runs for reelection in 2024, she undoubtedly will. If she runs. And until then, no matter what she does, she's a Senator until 2024.

Yeah I'm not feeling great about tonight. I have honestly done my best to remain positive about Bernie's chances even in the face of ridiculous odds, and to be fair that was a hell of a lot easier to do a week ago, but after tonight I see no path forward. Yes, the primary isn't even halfway over, but Biden has made his mark tonight and there's probably no going back. California needed to be a blowout and Bernie needed to pick up some of the losers states like Minnesota and Massachusetts. We might still squeak by a Texas win but it feels impossible to build momentum at this point.

I wasn't expecting a blowout tonight but I was expecting Bernie to come away with at least a modest delegate lead to combat the Biden narrative, and there's no chance it doesn't snowball at this point save Biden stroking out on live TV, and after tonight I doubt even that would do it.

I want Bernie to keep fighting for every inch and make them sweat. I want him to keep humiliating Liz. And finally I want him to declare an independent run for president, but I know he never, ever would.

I'm gonna have to check out from the succ smugness for a while. Maybe I wake up in the morning and a miracle occurs, but I can't visualize that anymore.

eh it’s looking pretty likely Biden is going to win Texas, though it will be close enough the delegate difference isn’t gonna be huge

i honestly can't decide if warren is still in the race 'cause she's been directed so by the dnc (like the other candidates falling out and lining up behind biden) or if she really is that politically stupid and honestly thinks she has a chance at this thing.

malice or incompetence, the evergreen question when it comes to democrats.

Yeah, this is gonna be Biden's high water mark. It's gonna be a long slog but at best, Biden rode a wave of enthusiasm and a unified moderate vote against a divided progressive vote and managed to fight to a tie. gently caress Biden, gently caress Bloomberg, gently caress Warren, Bernie's still gonna win.

i definitely think someone offered her the proverbial 30 pieces of silver to help divide and conquer the progressive movement.

and i hope whatever it is she was promised it ends up like one of those cheesy movies where the big villain tells the turncoat lickspittle when he comes for his reward "Oh you'll get just what you deserve" and tests out the death ray on him or whatever.

I dunno man. Say Bloomberg drops out, Warren stays in. Seems like a whole hell of a lot would go to Biden and Bernie's ability to get a plurality would be even tougher. Florida alone will be very difficult for Bernie imo because he has to contend with gusanos and snowbirds. I'm gonna keep putting in work until more of the California vote becomes finalized at the very least.

On the other hand, we made 2.25 million GOTV calls today and no other candidate has that. Maybe it'll count for something in next week's primaries.

I don't buy that it's directed, only because she's so much of an narcissist that I don't think she'd go along if asked, as it requires her losing and publicly eating poo poo while doing so.

i think everyone went soft on biden because we couldn’t conceive of people actually going for a clearly demented man. what we didn’t count on is that for people who were born before the ban on leaded gasoline, he seems normal. i should have known because i work with completely incoherent old fuckups every day
