These drop outs are trying to push Beden up to the 15% cut off. This whole thing reminds me of the GOPe “stop Trump” primary sesaon games. None of them worked. I don’t expect this will either.

Liberals think they can control everything, and they can't. Like you say, it usually has the opposite effect.

Bernie does not care if he gets screwed again.

He is a complete fraud and only feigned minimal distress at the whole Iowa Caucus fiasco. "OK kids, let's all move on!"

Biden already promised his SCOTUS pick would be a black woman.

He didn't promise an LGBTQ trans black woman. And a pledge to help prevent the next 153 million gun violence deaths by bringing us gun confiscation.

That's why he's called a "moderate." Warren and Sanders would do these things.

I think the younger from 40 and under will end up going to Bernie.

If Bernie gets screwed by the insiders’ superdelegate kingmakers again, will he react like Stalin,Mao,Fidel,Ho Chi Minh and others? Or turn the other cheek and seek mindfulness/ forgiveness/ gratitude counsel from Oprah and Marianne Williamson?

Ask a Bernie Bro.

The inducement for the endorsement was just off camera.

I’m guessing she got her bills paid and maybe a house like Bernie’s—or maybe a yacht and a get-out-of-jail-free card.

It just shows how bad this Democrat field was that they consider a feeble Joe Biden the best choice against Trump. Sure, Sanders has a giant negative problem with that whole Socialist thing. But any recent video of Biden on the campaign trail shows that he isn't coherent part of the time. The media has been able to hide much of this, but in a general campaign, there's not a chance.

Even if Biden somehow gets the nomination, he will be replaced by the first of October. They will not let him debate Trump, at least not more than once.

Just looking forward to the Democratic National Communist Committee fighting between a Crazy Socialist (Bernie), the fool Joe Biden and I'll-buy-the-Presidency Mini Mike Bloomberg).

Take your pick...a Commie, a Pervert and a wannabe Oligarch.

Somebody behind the scenes is driving this and funding this. Perhaps the DNC. They are terrified of Biden not getting to 15% in California, and not getting any California delegates.

I think the anti-Bloomberg mindset among the “moderate”/establishment Democrat wing is as strong as the anti-Bernie mindset.

Earlier the theory was Klobuchar would stay in through the Minnesota primary so she could pull votes from Bernie. It now appears that is not the plan, tomorrow is too important.

However, I wonder how much a candidate’s endorsement means? I think a lot of Klobuchar’s support will go to Warren, because I think part of Klobuchar’s appeal was that she was a woman. After Klobuchar clobbered Buttigieg, there is no way Buttigieg supporters would move to Klobuchar. But polls suggested about 20% of his support would go to Biden, but another 20% would go Sanders and about 20% to Warren. That suggests 40% of Buttigieg’s support in anti-establishment. Same with Steyer. He was to the left of Warren. His support would likely go to Sanders and Warren, not Biden.

This is total desperation. Biden knows much of California has already voted, and Buttigieg and Klobuchar are the only candidates he can draw support from, but they are both polling in single digits in California. Perhaps the plan is to get Warren to 15% too, so both Biden and Warren take some delegates to prevent a blow-out by Bernie.

Joe's going to have a mental meltdown for the history books.

With his apparent descent into some form of dementia it is surprising that the media and DNC could cover it up this far. His mental deterioration shows a separate pseudo-reality in his mind where he can run for US Senator, still work in the Obama Administration today, see kids playing 45s on record players and believe he is still 45 years old and ready to be President.

How dangerous a leader he would be in the White House. Foreign powers, political groups, complex decisions about policy to deal with crises.....all would be far beyond his brain's capacity to reason and respond. Would they put him in a secured room and have his wife come out to tell what he decides, as Woodrow Wilson?

Can't the Dems and media see that danger????

But imagine the snoozer speeches in between the riots as they have to pander and pay off people like Amy, buttguy, mini-mike, Beto, etc, perhaps the least inspiring group one could assemble.

I’m guessing SloJoe has sold his soul to the Chicago Mob and he’ll just be a front man for Axlegrease, Plouffy, Rhambo, and ValJ.
