***2020 Democrat Primary/Caucus Thread*** Biden Is Your Demoractic Nominee (5 Viewers)

Kobuchar needs to freshen up her material, the “who does that “bit was good the other night but lame the 2nd time around 

 
Not sure I see where Pete gets +4000 with what’s left.  Great result compared to expectations a few weeks ago though. 

 
Amy is truly the embodiment solid but not spectacular.  She's improved her likability or maybe I'm more familiar with her now but she's pretty flat and needs a little pizzaz.  Her teeing up and telegraphing a laugh line is painful and seems a basic part of politics but there's a lot to like here.

 
Amy needs to check her emotions. Almost lost it talking about her grandfather and father. She needs to stop saying we got past this hurdle and talk about going the whole way. Act like this isn’t your first time here.

It’s fluctuated on percentage, but total vote difference has been pretty steady for a while.  I don’t see Pete making up 4000 votes.

Agreed.  But given the proportionality of the delegates he's going to have fought Sanders to essentially a delegate tie after IA and NH.  I didn't see that as likely.  I still think Sanders may stretch this a bit, but Pete has kept it closer than I expected in NH.

It’s just nice to see a Democrat who understands and actively works for the numbers that count in an election.  Delegates, folks. They matter.

Imagine Trump being able to rip Bernie as being so extreme that even another progressive was unwilling to endorse him. It would fall right in line with a campaign attack of fearing the socialist and probably would work.

I think Dems spend too much time worrying what Trump will say about them.  It's really just tortured logic to keep the party centrist forever.  'Imagine Clinton being able to rip Trump as being so extreme even the Bushes wouldn't endorse him.'  Trump was unorthodox and extreme by any measure- and then he won. 

Conventional wisdom is over, it's a different era now.

Or, Trump was a fluke and things will return to normal starting the next election.

I prefer to think of Trump as an exception, rather than a changed norm.  Honestly, we can't survive if it's a different era that Trump is representative of.

Sanders appears to have lost over half his support from four years ago.

Well there's like 5 prominent politicians running a pretty neck and neck race, versus effectively 2 in 2016.  No one's going to run away with it until the herd thins out a bit.  Especially with Carville and Bloomberg and Hillary and MSNBC and every other centrist coming out of the woodwork to subvert a left populist campaign.  

Sanders has broken records for # of individual donors.  He has the most individual donors in about 47 states.  It's really unprecedented in a lot of respects.  Super Tuesday will tell us a lot.

Bad defeatist attitude. Adapt and advance imo.

Agreed on that front. If Buttigieg, Klobuchar, and Biden are all still in the race, Sanders will take a lot of states with a plurality.

Trump was a fluke. But it's never going back.

Which is exactly what a lot of us have been saying since he got in. So can all of you on the Trump fearmonger bandwagon relax with the "stuff he does will change our country forever" narrative?
