Race-Resetting Super Tuesday Sets Up A Long Fight For The Democratic Nomination | Talking Points Memo

I liked Warren and would have happily voted for her. It’s surprising that she didn’t do better.

It makes me appreciate even more what Hillary was able to do in 2016.

I’m sure many people think that way and I’ve seen lots of people advocating for a woman, especially a non white woman to be vp nominee. But it feels like a consolation prize to me. It’s a disappointing primary and such a pick only makes me sadder. (again, just speaking for myself)

If Castro has a fraction of the rapport with Biden that he has with Warren, I’m all in. He is a great campaigner, a better backup President than Pence/Haley/Ivanka and he would help put Texas into play in sort of an age-reversal JFK-LBJ ticket.

If Dems can find a way to win TX Trump is guaranteed to lose. Think it’s far fetched? Ask 1989 if Colorado would ever become blue state, how about Virginia. It’s happening.
Hell if Bloomberg really wanted to change politics he would move his employees to South Dakota and the state would be solid blue for a generation.

Dems are close. At the state legislature level, they think they have a real shot at gaining control of the House. And I kept looking at that primary map last night and thinking, Texas is the most diverse of the “red” states. Political change is coming there, and pretty soon.

Yeah, I saw that. Makes me wonder why he dropped out.

I hope you are correct – what data are you referring to?

I hope Mikey keeps the cash flowing. Something tells me Drumpf will soon tweet something insulting about him, making that more likely!

It is easy to google it.

Your claim, your burden of proof.

Yes. Stuff like this is just fuel for the speculative fire that is just how helpful Sanders and/or his supporters are or will be for the eventual party nominee–not to mention down-ballot candidates.

I can google “flat earth” and “fake moon landing”, too.

Actual citation or bullshit.

Accurate tweet from The Hoarse Whisperer (sorry, can’t paste at the moment):

“Counting on the youth vote has killed more politicians than heart disease.”

ETA: Even a young Bernie Sanders couldn’t be bothered to vote
