As some wag wrote after the Iowa Caucus,
By coming in second (however distant), and comfortably first among African-Americans, Biden at least has a chance next round of taking the votes Bloomberg was hoping for, and keeping the latter out of the race. That probably helps Bernie, so I still don’t see a clear path forward for anyone except him.
Not going to lie, I’m not a huge Sanders fan, mostly because I’m frustrated with his political fandom, and I was hoping for Warren.
I continue to be a Sanders fan, but like last cycle it is despite the fandom. However, I was surprised Warren didn’t do better than she did after the last debate, and hope that she hangs on for a while.
Absolutely right. Even in the worst of situations, the supers can’t “award the nomination” to someone, all they can do is boost a candidate from 35% to 50%, and that requires an extremely unlikely 100% agreement. It isn’t like 1968, where because the two progressive candidates were bickering HHH was awarded the nomination despite no popular support.
