The stronger Bernie is during the prinaries, the more he can sell out for.
Unless something crazy happens at the debate next week this cake is pretty much baked. Bernie and Joe will be the top two finishers in SC with none of the others doing anything significant. Then just three days later comes Super Tuesday with Bernie getting most of the delegate haul and thus amassing an insurmountable lead. I’m tickled pink.
CNN has gone back to their regularly scheduled program—with only 11% of the vote in from Nevada.
What a joke!
I will switch and watch MSNBC until they make me puke—feel free to place bets on how long that will be... :-)
While his backers are loud and boisterous, he won’t have the broad support Trump has. First off, Trump has inherent incumbency advantages, and Americans who have a stake in this country’s continued prosperity will vote for him.
Update—23% of the Nevada vote in—Sanders with big lead, then Biden, then Buttigieg, then Warren.
It looks like this order _may_ stick.
So far Sanders has won all delegates awarded.
That's what happened in 2016.
Bloomy can afford to pay a whole hell of a lot more than HELLARY too!!!
36 delegates
Bern gets abt 23
Biden 11
Butti 1 or 2
It’s after 9 pm and the Rat morons have only counted 23 percent of the votes.
.....and The Stupid Party thinks they can run the country.
yup, they’re gonna rob him of the nomination anyway
Data tidbit—late voters did _not_ vote in higher percentages than early voters for Elizabeth Warren, so her Bloomberg attack did not help her in Nevada, and early voting cannot be blamed.
Warren is probably toast—but she has a huge ego and she is having fun beating up on Bloomberg.
A little early to figure out the Biden and Butt delegates imho.
Sanders 47%, Biden 23%—a brutal beat-down of Biden in a state with 10% black voters and 17% hispanic voters.
This is with 27% of the vote counted.
Buttcringe posted results on his website, 26% in according to his precinct captains and he was in 2nd place ahead of Biden.
Butt 14%, Warren 9%...terrible showings for these two...
I look forward to Sanders being the nominee if he can truly pull it off. There are still a lot of huge hurtles, but if he can do it, I look forward to it.
I subscribe to the conventional wisdom that he will be the easiest one for Trump to beat.
Reminds me of Chris Christie going in on Rubio. Sure Warren would want to angle for a VP slot if at all possible.
I guess we will find out soon enough...or maybe not...
;-)
The D candidates are so awful, it is hard to figure who is the worst...but Sanders would really hurt the Democrats in swing districts and swing states and should give the GOP an excellent chance of winning back the House of Representatives.

That is exactly the conventional wisdom I subscribe to. We might all (all of us who agree with you) might all end up being wrong, but it sure seems like the most logical place to be right now.
I’ll be honest with you, the only one I really fear is Bloomberg and not because he has any intrinsic electability, but because of all that money. That money can not only buy votes, it can buy vote fraud.
And I still worry about him even with a Bernie nomination because he’s already said he’s going to throw all that voter fraud purchasing power on the side of whoever the demons nominate.
I fear for our country and I look to Trump to save us.
