I just don't think having a some good policy matters when I have zero faith he will actually get anything done.

Like, I'm not in full meltdown mode now that I'm not having to deal with this while at work, just super depressed. I just cannot look at Biden and acknowledge that he is a human being who walks and talks. He's just...an amorphous blob of anonymous Democrat.

I just don't get how he has supporters!

https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/26/politics/joe-biden-pastor-charleston-church-shooting/index.html

Don't know if this will do anything for you, but this is a real strength of Biden's.

In a similar vein you could watch the interviews he did with Colbert a few years ago. He's very good at connecting with people through grief.

or have trolling Greta Thunberg be his main climate policy.
Man...Trump is so easily baited. Like...I shouldn't even know who Greta Thunberg is, like ok cool she's a climate activist from Europe. I've never before or since known the names of any EU climate activists. Why would I? I live far from Europe.

But I've heard about Greta almost solely because because Trump (and a few other republicans) keep getting their panties in a bunch over Greta. How does the president of the US keep getting baited by a high schooler?

Older black voters are Democratic Party diehards.

If Mini Mike isnt viable in CA, doesnt Bernie end up with the most pledged delegates after tonight, at least when CA is finally called? This would assume other states havent voted by that time. Right now hes up by almost double digits.

Im not too familiar with how those delegates will be awarded between them, but I would think Sanders will narrow the gap significantly or at least take a lead, just not the sizable lead that was expected

Doesn't matter even if u are right tho it sounds suspect. If Bernie didn't win the popular vote by double digits % going into the convention, they were never going to give him the nomination.

Good!

In less good news, the local GOP house primary I was happy about was, in fact, totally flipped as more votes actually came in and the super obnoxious woman with lots of money and advertising herself as all of the worst things in politics has a majority ~_~

The other local high profile house primary race ( @HeroDelTiempo17 ) is seeing Granger comfortably hold off the tea party-style challenger. I don't like her, but she's at least better than the alternative

extremely hyperbolic there when you see the video there but pretty awesome of Jill to do nevertheless. that's how these protesters should be treated. stop 'em and get security to remove them ASAP. way, way better response than walking away or having your event taken over. also this has to be the same organization as the one who did the bernie one so fuck these people, all they're making me want to do is buy more milk and cheese.

I just don't get how he has supporters!

He was Obama's Vice President. And... that's pretty much it. There were plenty of other moderates in the race. But none of them were Obama's VP. It's like how Al Gore was the nominee in 2000. Policy doesn't really matter to far too many people. It never has. It's all about celebrity.

Here's what the standings look so far (according to the AP)

Biden - 341
Sanders - 296
Warren - 50
Bloomberg - 42
Gabbard - 1
Remaining - 614

Half of the remaining belongs to California while for some reason none of the North Carolina delegaes (110) have been allocated, but on different sites Biden has a 57-33 lead with 17 undeclared candidates. Even assuming Bloomberg remains unviable in California it is unlikely Sanders will be able to catch-up unless the remaining votes run up his score.

impressive job by warren. and honestly, impressive job by bernie too, it isn't easy to rack up that many wins when you've got all of the machines running full steam against him like that. yeah, there was an active rejection of him shown here and it's going to get worse as the upcoming states continue. but it is a very notable section that cannot be ignored and it will change the party, though not in any extreme way.

Well it's twofold:

  • I want to hear Biden explain his positions now that he's the frontrunner.


  • I want Warren to explain why she's still in.


It can be the last debate for all I care, I think enough has changed from the last one that we need to know.

Warren absolutely bodying Biden the way she did Bloomberg would be nice, but I'm not confident she would, or could.

Warren is "reassessing" her campaign, so she should be dropping out soon. That fundraising email that went out was probably just automatic. The other campaigns that bowed out had similar things happen.

More than 4x as many older black voters voted for the racist billionaire mayor who was a Republican not too long ago as they did the socialist.

The man who created stop and frisk got 26% of the older black vote to Sanders' 7%.

Why do you think that is?
