I suppose it's theoretically possible to win by taking a close second in every state while everyone else takes turns winning, but her performance thus far doesn't even slightly indicate she's in a position to take a close second anywhere.

I think theres still time for her to bow out gracefully. However as this drags out longer she is going to be saddled with more and more hate from progressives for slinging baseless attacks at Sanders, and for contributing to the idea that there could be a contested convention where the DNC can steal the nomination from him.

Oh and if she loses MA, that doesnt bode well for future presidential runs either.

Bernie stayed because he wanted to win. The same reason everyone else with a shot in a contested convention is sticking around.

He stayed because Hillary was under FBI investigation

If she got indicted, there'd be no other candidate

On the topic of South Carolina, it's worth remembering that Jim Clyburn has recently endorsed Biden, which will help him considerably, especially with older black voters.

Edit: The polls seem to fall into two categories: big Biden win and small Biden win. Obviously, the latter is the better case, but remember Super Tuesday is literally this Tuesday. In fact, it's telling Bernie is doing an event in Virginia today, which seems like an admission that SC isn't looking good. The Dem voter base skews old in SC, so it was never going to be a strong state for us.

I think Bernie is benefiting more from this strategy, where I can see him consistently ranking either 1st or 2nd place in every state.

Not trying to be rude, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's dealing with dementia. That aloof look in his eyes, the sheer amount of weird things he's been saying, and his visible decline in sharpness since 2012/2016 are all telltale signs. That's one of the reasons I hope he drops out sooner than later

This tweet shows the changes. Absolutely brutal poll for Warren, and at least the second I've seen with her trailing Bernie in Massachusetts.

Bernie would annihilate Bloomberg 1v1, because Bloomberg is horrible and nobody who knows the first thing about him likes him. He would basically get pure anti-Bernie votes and get blown out of most contests(he'd win Florida and a few other states still).
Biden would actually be very hard to defeat, because somehow his campaign's strategy of not having Biden do events kind of works! Plus, he has that sweet Obama goodwill and is an old person's old person.

I think his best chance is if they both stay in the race, since they're both competing over the same base

The more people capable of cracking the 15 percent threshold and earning delegates, the worse for Sanders' chances of getting a majority.

If the recent polls are any indication, Biden might be the only one to walk away with delegates

Though I think Biden wins by 4-7%

Bernie close second

I mean, other candidates will probably cross the threshold locally, of course, but it would be a ridiculously huge win for Bernie.

Also, that Texas poll is great for him. Hopefully losing SC won't hurt him too bad, because it seems possible Sanders could win all of CA, TX, VA, CO, and MA(and VT, of course).

If it helps Biden was 50 points ahead just a few months ago and now it's a single digit lead in most polls. Also they only have 72 hours to gloat because he's going to get crushed on Super Tuesday.

That being said, I don't doubt CNN and MSNBC will be painting this as a watershed moment for his campaign. Just know it's all bullshit.

I want to support Bernie, but there is 1 issue that is kind of a deal breaker for me: Legalizing marijuana. I am very much opposed to this.

From my understanding Bernie plans to make it legal thru executive action during his first 100 days as POTUS. I think Biden takes a more moderate stance. Biden wants to study the pros and cons and leave it up to the states.
