I like warren, and it's too bad she's sliding in the polls. she makes the most sense and actually tells you what her plans are and how she'll do it. 

friendly reminder that only 5% of the delegates have been declared
there's a long road ahead
as more candidates drop out, those delegates will migrate to the more moderate candidates who remain
(that won't be bernie)

bernie has 43 delegates
the rest of the field has 54 combined

why does this look like you are refuting your own post?

In case there's any confusion, to clarify: Bernie. Won't. Be. The. Nominee.

The sooner Bernie Bros realize this and get over their butt hurt, the better

If you are convinced of that, there is free money to be had. Go get it.

Clinton being given smaller odds than Klobuchar is hilarious. The Klob has no chance at all and is just taking votes away from people that can possibly beat Sanders. If she truly believes Trump is evil, and Bernie just can’t get the job done against him, be a team player and step aside for the people that can actually beat Bernie. What is she even in the race for at this point? To someday bounce a grandchild on her knee and tell them “I once got a few delegates! Me! Your grandma!”? 

Klobuchar is still in it because she's more qualified than half the field. Look at the number of bills she's passed and sponsored. She's a very successful politician and speaks directly to many of the swing states that cost Clinton the election.

I don’t disagree with any of that. I’m of the political philosophy that someone like Amy should totally go as far as she could. I AM. But the democrats have made Trump out to be the second-coming of Hitler. Seems like everything should be in the table, including primary candidates dropping out sooner than usual (to avoid a brokered convention). 

I guess we’ll just see how things shape up on Super Tuesday.

Don't sell Amy short. She would clobber Trump in a debate. She's everything Sarah Palin wishes she was.

I’d vote for Trump twice before I’d vote for Warren.

After tonight's debate, and having just a few more days to mail my ballot, I've decided to go with Bernie after all.  Pete blew it with his phony and arrogant attacks on Sanders and the others have worn thin on me.  Bernie it is for me!

I would have liked to answer the "biggest misconception" about each candidate instead of them.  Would have had more truth to it.

My opinion on past debates has been pretty similar to what I've read later, but not this case. My opinion is very different from the poll you show SC.

Yeah, they should have had to answer the misconception question about someone else. Way more interesting. 

Also, pretty cool that we had time for everyone's motto but only 2.5 answers on Syria.

The Dems lost me around 2014 when I left the party. That’s not to say I won’t vote for one. I voted for Hillary in 2016. I would have preferred her as president instead of Trump. Not Warren though.

Good on Biden for being the only one to bring up the Uyghurs when China was being discussed. Between that, Syria, and North Korea there are some really difficult humanitarian crises occurring right now. I really wish at least one of the debates had devoted a considerable chunk of time to them. What I did hear was painfully thin.

Not trying to be a jerk...but do you think that topic is something that actually helps someone get elected?

The largest country in the world and our second largest trade partner is literally rounding up Muslims and putting them in concentration camps. At some point over multiple debates, I think it's important to hear thoughts on this from anyone running for President. You won't know if it helps or hurts someone's electability until you hear their answer.

Bernie brought it up when attacking Bloomy for loving China? Or am I remembering wrong?

So instead of baiting, why don't you try to convince me that there's a better choice.

Oh, but what am I thinking.  It's so much more fun to bait and berate other people.

Hahahaha I can see you are where I was last week. Relax Brian, it’s all good. I think voting for Bernie is a mistake but that doesn’t make you a mistake

We simply must have a nominee who is palatable to moderate Republicans because depending on them worked so well in 2016.

someone who is interested in uniting people, instead of dividing them

really anyone except bernie

bernie will lose to tRUmp

cost D's the House

and lose any chance of flipping the senate

like the last election, there is much more at stake than just the presidency.  see also: supreme court, appellate/circuit court appointments

democratic socialist : democrats :: libertarians : republicans

you want a democratic socialist in the white house, then start getting them elected locally, at the county and state level. 

getting a democratic socialist into the white house is a pipe dream and moon shot

LOL, thank you for the vote of confidence, Cincy!   

This whole election thing is feeling very stressful.  I might have to have a beer or six after I get off work today.

I believe the "we need to unite" thing is a pundit and political air castle thing without base in reality. People have argued that the low turnout in the early states was because they were content with whoever got elected. Anyone being better than Trump.

Lol.. yeah.... okey... no need to go down your list any further it seems.. Put your life savings on Steyer. And I keep mine on the most beloved senator in the country, Bernie Sanders.
