Makes you wonder how bad Bernie wants his revolution. He can destroy Biden on the debate stage. Will he? I think he might, the DNC stabbed him in the back too many times now.
Hardly, it's part of a bigger game. Everyone left is damaged goods and the Democrat party is fracturing more every day. If Trump breaks them he ensures a Republican victory for two or three cycles...
It didn't really surprise me. Bloomberg said he entered the race because he didn't think any of the candidates could beat Trump. After he found out that he can't buy an election and after sleepy Joe's decent showing last night, he did the right thing by backing out of a race he couldn't win and didn't really want. Now he can form what amounts to a political hedge fund in the form of a Super PAC and still sway delegates against Socialist Bernie the squad and probably some other known socialists in the House and a few in the Senate. I still don't think Biden is a threat to Trump's reelection but now with the dem elite backing Biden politically and with Bloomberg providing a pile of cash for him, Bloomberg can buy his House or keep the present House and maybe pick up a senator or 2 using Biden as a front. It could all backfire on him, but I think that's their plan.
Not even close. The Dem. Party will be more United than ever in November. That said, Trump is always welcome to keep dreaming. "Implosion"?
I think the party coalescing behind Ole Joe is a smoke screen. They will push for Hillary or Michelle Obama as his running mate, then Ole Joe is deemed incompetent. After railroading the poor old guy, one of them will be President without being elected as such. My money is on Hillary. They may need the vote Michelle would bring in to win.
While that's not precisely the scenario that works for me, I suspect that you are near to the truth. Whatever the DNC is doing they know that Biden's increasing senility cannot be hidden when the contest 'gets real' and yet they are determined that the nominee will not be Bernie Sanders. I don't see a viable way out of this double-bind political trap -- of their own making. I am still keeping an eye on Warren. Clearly the withdrawals of the other contestants were coordinated by the DNC. So why wasn't Warren also told to pull out?
Not a Chance. Although, I must say, that is a really "interesting" take (whether you actually believe it, or not). In serious terms, neither Hillary or Michelle will be the VP. That WON'T Happen. The reason that the Dems. are uniting behind Biden is that he WILL beat Trump. Harris still is (seemingly) the Fave for VP. But, there are a few others on the Short List.
Warren is being kept in (by the DNC) just to hold down Bernie's Vote Totals (while Obama and The Clinton's work behind the scenes to implement a sinister plan to derail Bernie). If it wasn't for the DNC, Bernie would have won all of the Primaries (by 2 to 1 margins) and Bernie would already be the presumptive nominee). Yet another reason that Trump is headed to be 50-State sweep.
She may have been already, but I think she's holding out for something. She has no need to continue, heck she lost her home state to Biden.
One suggestion is that they prefer her to pull more bernie votes away from him, it might reduce Bernies delegate count but it won't help bidens delegate count. I guess maybe it would help his if she pulls under 15%. I don't really know what happens to assigned delegates once a candidate pulls out, do they become unattached?
Remember I told you in the future. The DNC should be charged with elder abuse putting Ole can't remember the "Declaration of Independence" in the hot seat. I was a care giver for a dementia patient, Joe won't be a viable President in a year or two. So, who ever is his running mate will be President then. That's who the Democrats are really voting for. So, watch the running mate of Biden.
So the whole Bloomberg campaign was nothing more than a clever money laundering scheme from the start. Well I am Deplored by this deplorable display of Democrat deplorable behavior since that billion dollars could have helped a lot of homeless legal citizens of America
Will be a grand Dem Lovefest in Milwaukee this summer … as the Great American Party unites around old war horse Joe. Can't wait to hear the great BO speak...
In belgium they claim warren is ending her campaign later today to, but i dont find any place in english yet, kind of weird
Since we both posted she has announced her withdrawal. One wonders what sort of financial or political deals these 'contenders' got from the DNC for early withdrawal and for endorsing Biden.
Exactly. The Convention is going to be Epic. Bernie giving his rousing speech in favor of Biden and Party Unity. Obama's rousing call for Party Unity. It would not surprise me (in the least) for Biden to be holding comfortable 7+ Point Leads in the Major Swing States in Mid-October. The GOP's ONLY hope is NC GOP-Style Voter Fraud. Or Rampant Voter Suppression (like happened in Tuesday in TX where people had to wait for over 5 hours, in some minority precincts). If it is a FAIR Election (run above board) Trump will LOSE Badly.
