We know where this is going and it needs to stop NOW.

that puts his own interests first, above others.

Amazing how many he's persuaded otherwise but there's one born every minute.

seems to have a similar power of persuasion.

Don't forget, though, he hasn't persuaded nearly as many this time as in 2016. Joe Biden is crushing it thus far in ways that HRC didn't in 2016 though so that gives me hope.

The rest I will leave unsaid.

What is the point of this other than to damage the Democrats?

If Bernie wants to soldier on with a positive message, fine. But why is he lighting our house on fire?

....I'm sure by early April Biden will have already turned his attention toward trump.

The media will start spinning it against us and Joe. The best hope is that Joe Biden overwhelmingly wins the next little bit to fully deflate the Bernie balloon.

It's pathetic to think that Joe sweeping all remaining primaries would be what is required for Sanders to get the message though. Ugh.

Wow. That was beyond what I expected, which was 360-217 (+143). I don't think BS will win AZ or IL, but he could do well with AZ's sizable Hispanic population, and in some of the college towns and parts of Chicago in Illinois.

Sanders may be non viable in FL, giving Joe all 219 delegates, the other states, IL 155 delegates,
Ohio, Az all delegate rich with sanders falling further behind.

This pollster is getting a lot of attention. Really easy site to navigate. He predicts following 3/17 Biden’s delegate count 1293
Sanders 956

None of the states between now and April 28 favor him. He might win Hawaii. Big woo. He's not winning AZ, FL, IL and OH next Tuesday. He won't win Georgia Tuesday week. He won't win Alaska, Louisiana and Wyoming on April 4th. He won't win Wisconsin on the 7th.

And then comes his doom three weeks later: Connecticut, Delaware, New York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. As a hometown boy to both, Biden will OWN Delaware and Pennsylvania. Count on it. It will be a bloodbath in those states in his favor. RI is heavily Catholic, and will vote for Catholic Biden as well. If BS couldn't win MA or WA, he's going to crater in CT and NY. They're the same type of states in their constituencies: White collar + diverse cities, soccer mom burbs, with some strong rural areas tossed in.

Mark your calendars: April 28. Biden's going to lock down the nomination on this day. It's coming, and only BS is too blinded by his delusions of grandeur of a glorious revolution with him at the helm to get it.

If BS had any dignity or grace, he would concede, pledge his delegates to Biden and slink away for good to his Senate hidey hole so he can get back to work with naming some more post offices.

However, I doubt that we're that lucky or that he has that much grace or dignity.

He is running negative ads as we speak. I learned to never give him the benefit of doubt. He has no path and is still running negative ads.

with only 2 candidates left, one of them (Biden) will get more than 50% of the delegates before the convention.

Certainly appeared that way in 2016

remember he did his best to cause trouble for Democrats in 2015-2016, that he continually lied about our party to undermine confidence of the entire nation in us, that he knowingly has been accepting Russia's assistance to defeat us from 2015 to now, and that he literally tried to steal the last primary FROM the choice of a large majority and then refused to endorse the nominee until the stink threatened backlash on him.

All that on top of continually telling people Democrats are the problem our nation must solve before we can advance. And he's continued to pursue those strange but apparently satisfactory successes in the same manner without interruption from then to now.

Oh, did I forget to mention that this "progressive" was instrumental in throwing the nation into the power of anti-progressive RW powers determined to root out and destroy all progressivism in government? His excuse is that it didn't matter which party won. "Anyway, the Democrats do it too."

Sure, Burnie, that's right: Democrats under Obama CREATED the White House pandemic office in response to the Ebola outbreak just to have the evil pleasure of closing it before the outbreak we created it to manage from Day 1 happened.

Sanders' choice is what kind of legacy does he want to leave behind.

other candidates, from the beginning -- almost all below the $200 threshold that requires donors to be identified.

Even back when he was polling 11-20%, unable to break out of the second tier, his donations were far higher than all others. Even now, when he's proven to have been losing really big, his donations nevertheless remain high in inverse proportion.

Money is not Sanders' problem.

He also has far more delegates than he needs to put his name in nomination so he can continue to pursue his "legacy."



Even, and even especially, when we don't actually know what that is.

He’s certainly never expressed any shame at all or regret about what the Republicans have been doing, he’s just trying to do it all over again, presumably wanting some kind of different result but willing to accept reelecting the Republicans. As he repeats constantly, the Democrats are really mostly just as bad, little difference between us.

I don't know that he's hiring new ones (as opposed to using ones that are already on his campaign). As I mentioned in the thread where this has been discussed, I think the wheels were already turning on the opening of the PA offices before this past Tuesday's results shifted things. It sounds like they may not be open for long.

BS has ZERO chance of winning PA.

Not against Scranton born and bred (at least until he was 10 y/o) Biden. Pennsylvania LOVES Biden. He's their guy and, most importantly, their kind of guy. Estan en la misma la onda--They're on the same wave (as in vibe), as we like to put it down here in South Texas.

PA will be a bloodbath in favor of Biden.

I enjoy watching him get beaten every week.

Tuesdays have never been more fun.
Every election day is just another phase in Monty Python's Black Knight scene.
Another Tuesday passes, another limb falls off. "All the way to the convention" is the new "It's just a flesh wound".

Biden could laugh off the zombie campaign and move on to the GE.

I have a feeling Biden won't need the superdelegates

I hope it ruins whatever "legacy" he has left. This is partly why he is not liked in congress. He has such poor sportsmanship. Sore sore loser. Too much of his own ego run amuck.

He has every right to take this to the convention if he and his campaign choose to do so.
