I'll take your word for it I suppose. Everything he has said and done has led me to believe otherwise but if he changes his tune then that would be a different scenario.

It's a toss-up on what is more embarrassing after today: Bloomberg in general or Warren in Mass

I think Bloomberg in general given the budget.

I understand being down on Biden but come on, he's not going to continue kids in cages.
He will, yes. He won't go 'man, fuck those kids' but he will be too concerned with reaching across the aisle to make any real changes to the ICE and that current situation for at least 2 years.

Right now to me this is like...JUST BARELY better than Trump beating Hillary. And that's just because the gap between Bernie and Biden is a little smaller than Trump and Hilary, on opposite sides of the scale.

And Biden won Massachusetts too lol.

He didn't even run commercials there. He spent ZERO dollars there. Not an exaggeration. And he just beat Warren WHO LIVES THERE AND REPRESENTS THE STATE.

You want to see a really gross explanation lightly framed as a joke but is more likely a sad reality?

Also I have fallen into the trap I myself loathe so much by consistently making this about D vs R. I have only been staunchly D because there is no such thing as a liberal Republican. I don't actually care about Democrats in the slightest, I care about voting progressive liberal. Voting Democrat is just the only category in which those people fall.

If such a thing as a liberal Republican existed I would be totally fine voting for them, lol.

in defense of all the jokes to bloomberg: he's still reaching his ultimate goal.
he just wanted not bernie. when ALL the fire went to bernie, he became the focus, he became the story. had bernie slammed biden with social security more, he could've maybe put a dent in this mess. basically he was a $700 million shield to get flamed by everyone but still get the main win he wanted.

KP I work for a political news show.

Trust me. Biden's a good 4.

On a Progressive scale, Biden is a 2 at best. Hes just...not.

He has literally called for cuts to social security and Medicade multiple times. He helped write what became the 90s racist crime bill, helped write what became the Patriot Act, etc etc

Looking more and more like we have a winner in the "Hillary lost because she didn't even campaign in Wisconsin" vs. "Hillary lost because of sexism" debate, with the extra benefit of Joe Biden winning Massachusetts by not campaigning there over a female candidate who is a senator FROM MASSACHUSETTS.

I dont think these situations are comparable at all, unless you think Wisconsin in particular is more sexist than any other states Hillary won.

They moved behind him, but he wasn't making a joke about it. He didn't realize they switched spots. It is kind of obvious from the clip. That said, it's gonna be hitting the social media waves regardless.

the second choice for bidens immediately went to biden.
the second choice for bernie had been extensively pulled for bernie.

all she was left with was the diehards and there ain't enough of those.

If there's one thing Warren didn't fuck up, it's how she tore out Bloomberg's intestines on live TV. Without that, maybe moderate voltron forms around him instead.

i understand what you're trying to say but not being able to buy your way into a nomination is not at all equitable to "you have nothing to fear about money influencing politics"

that statement, as written, is delusional.
