Jesus - Buttigieg is giving a long ass speech instead of just graciously thanking his supporters and moving on - all 8% of them.

They keep cutting him off and coming back to him - and there he is - blathering on triumphally.

Eh - I have no problem with someone dancing.

And he deserves credit for putting impeachment on the menu. Now he can go fund whoever wins the nomination.

I FULLY support dancing, but I think Steyer dancing to “Back That Azz Up” deserves a gif for posterity!

So, the expectations of Biden’s impending collapse, and Sanders’ unstoppability, seem to have been premature.

This does look pretty bad for Warren’s chances, though.
