She doesnt owe bernie anything though does she...? She didnt screw him any more than he’s screwed her? What if he didnt run wouldnt many of his supporters go towards her? Or is it only one way...
Well, yes, it is only one way because he clearly has much more support and excitement than she does or ever did. He has a chance even still, she has none. She claims to support most ofthe same ideals as him. She should care more about those ideals winning than herself winning when she clearly has no chance.
Stacked at the last minute. Everyone dropped out to support Biden, except Warren who probably stayed to take Bernie votes away. Coordinated effort. The DNC won't allow Bernie to be the nominee.
That doesn't really matter.. Deval Patrick would've had a chance if no one else at all ran. Warren didn't "screw" Bernie by running in the first place.
I mean I understand the politics of it. Its weird though, earlier today and over the weekend people were upset at the people dropping out and endorsing Biden. Now many of the same people are upset Warren didnt do it for Bernie. If its ideals and their very similar then they’re both poaching votes from each other. Bloomberg is probably poaching about the same amount of votes from Biden that Warren took from Sanders. Should Biden people be upset he is running?
Nothing was "stacked." The Democratic party acts as organized parties always act--trying to clear the field and promote the candidate they think gives them the best chance for success. Let's not pretend that anything that works against Sanders is shady or sinister. I like Sanders more than I like Biden and was hoping he'd win the nomination, once it was clear my first (two) choices weren't going to get there--but nothing that's happening right now is "unfair play." Biden had a huge bounce-back in South Carolina, the Democratic establishment decided he really was their best hope among the moderates (and they obviously believe a moderate has a better chance of winning, which isn't clearly wrong nor is it clearly correct) so they worked to clear his competition, This is what every party does every election cycle in which they're not running an incumbent. It didn't start with Bernie.
Texas was always expected to be close. They each have strengths in the state--Biden among black voters and more conservative white Democrats, Sanders among Latinos, younger voters and white Democrats without a college degree.
Mini-Mike stole 140 delegates from Biden at a cost of $5,000,000 per delegate, so there's that. Here's a swan song for that unlikable, fascist runt.
I'm skeptical about Warren's motives as well, but the other politicians are just politicking. I have no doubt the DNC heads don't want Bernie as the nominee, but the only bullshit thing they've done so far is changing the debate rules so Bloomberg could attend.
