You should still vote for Warren in CA. She's polling well and can likely reach viability and there's a ton of delegates up for grabs in CA. I'm definitely not changing my vote.

Yup.
That poll that said primary voters in NH were angry about Trump's administration is just a taste. People want someone to go HAM on Trump.
Bloomberg has the money and the asshole personality to do just that. Further, it's pretty clear after 2016 that the typical American voter thinks that zingers are a sign of strength.
I'm going to enjoy this extremely important election being a dick-measuring contest between two childish racist conservative fucks. Really, really enjoyable.
Right, and also I think some of Bernie's polling strength is just people only knowing him and Biden.
He's got money and good volunteer support but especially if he wants to avoid a contested convention, he's going to need to expand his base.
NH is useful when the President is term limited and both parties have candidates. It is not a diverse state, only politically.
That's probably what I'll end up doing I'm just in despair right now.
Do you think the party establishment is also aware that Bloomberg was donating to House Republican candidates barely two years ago?
So what do Pete and Amy do with non white voters going forward? Both are polling badly with non white voters, and they are about to go through NV and SC before super Tuesday. I would argue this is essentially what Sanders wants right now. Several candidates splitting the votes between them allowing him to win states outright.
True but I'm going to enjoy not having a disgusting shithole dumbass in charge who erodes the foundations of the US if Bloomberg wins. As shit as Bloomberg is, he's an improvement in some important aspects. And I'll take that if I must. :/
Mike Bloomberg Spent Millions To Put Them In Congress. Now, They're Endorsing Him. - Asume Tech
When Rep. Harley Rouda became one of the first members of Congress to endorse Mike Bloomberg for president, the California Democrat billed it as a marriage of moderates. “He has been a fiscal conservative and a social progressive, which is where I believe most Americans are,” Rouda said...

Yeah I think Forma will get at least 15% in MA as well, so may as well vote for her so she can grab some dels.
All moderate candidates were doing badly with non-white voters because Biden had them swallowed all up. Now, freakin' Bloomberg might have 15-20% of the black vote.
And you think Sanders is polling super well either? Your scenario is the EXACT scenario Bloomberg is now counting on, and my post was evidence that as voters decide to shop elsewhere, it isn't Sanders....
Hey now, every house has multiple doors. Maybe they knocked at the front door, back door, bathroom door, bedroom doors...
"What I want out of each and every one of you is a hard-target search of every gas station, residence, warehouse, farmhouse, henhouse, outhouse and doghouse in that area."
I mean...Biden said some nice things about a Republican facing a tough reelection in a paid speech. I think that the party establishment wont' give much of a fuck.
He's the candidate who needed a vp pairing the soonest. Wonder if they'll see a missed opportunity there.
If some AA support can flee Biden to Mr. Stop & Frisk because of "electability", then it's conceivable it could also flow to Amy Klobucop, in a way that it might not to Buttigieg, who definitely inspires a more visceral dislike. I mean, I think Amy is probably a flash in the pan, just the flavor of the day who's only getting a look due to an unrepresentative state, and once she gets into the spotlight she'll wilt like every other candidate so far .... but I really don't think Bloomberg has this on lockdown.
All he needed to do was say something like "I believe that the President committed multiple crimes but I couldn't charge him because of DOJ policy"
Oh, yeah, I'm totally with you there. It's just, like, how did we get here? I remember how much hope I had for this country at the start of the last decade, and now I look at this country and it's fuckin' bleak, shit.
It's also proportional, so I wouldn't feel good unless Sanders plus his VP have ~45% of the delegates between them going into the convention
Like, we're at "Oprah brings the house down with a killer speech and is the nominee" territory if Bernie only controls ~30% or so of the delegates in a contested convention as the plurality leader.
Fucking thug mafia shithole banana republican sons of bitches
There. I cleaned it up for public consumption.
This is going to be one of those wins that is actually a loss in politics. Really muddies the picture for these candidates.
Wow, burn, you really got me, I guess it was just four years ago that Bloomberg last donated to House and Senate Republican campaigns. Good thing 2016 wasn't at all important.Mike Bloomberg Spent Millions To Put Them In Congress. Now, They're Endorsing Him. - Asume Tech

Its open, but if youre registered as an independent voter that votes by mail you have to notify the registrar that you want a dem ballot before next week and apparently a tiny amount of independents have bothered doing so.
I remember when Obama was first elected and thought "Maybe, this is the beginning of something." I was right, but not in the way that I wanted at all.
Got my mail-in ballot and I was all ready to vote my conscience for Warren but now...yeesh, I don't know. Voting Klobuchar wasn't even a remote possibility for me back during the holidays. What a year.
edit: for the record, not having a presidential preference is no excuse not to vote.
Are you assuming his VP is going to be Warren? I highly doubt any other candidate will be his VP...and no one else brings delegates minus a couple Super's...
All white states can still go first in the Republican primary. It's long past time that should no longer be the case in the Democratic primary.
I did, yes.
And that 38 million Bloomberg spent in 2018, as well as his direct support to people like Gillum is going to mean a lot more than the amount he spent supporting Toomey in 2016.
You can recognize this is going to matter when it comes down to who delegates will support, or you can bury your head in the sand and be surprised when it happens. Your call.
Let's see. Given the date, 2015, and whom he quoted, an ardent homophobe, I bet this tweet referred to Obergefell vs. Hodges.
If Warren is non-viable for the primary, I'm probably writing in John Kerry for shits 'n' giggles.
This is the correct answer. Republicans can't vote in the Dem race. though.
Mueller should have subpoenaed Trump Jr, and not been satisfied with evasive written responses from Trump.
Feel pity for us poor fucks who started the 00s with Clinton in ascendancy, a largely peaceful world order, thinking Gore would continue the 90s...
We can probably point to a few different things but the biggest issues with the Dem party, in my opinion, was the lack of a viable relatively youngish Presidential candidate following Obama. Instead we were stuck with old ass people. One had crazy baggage and the other was a radical.
I don't know how I never knew this before now (maybe I did and just forgot) but I had no idea New Hampshire was such a razor thin Clinton victory in 2016. This entire time I thought it was a typically solid blue New England state!?
Is it in serious contention to flip to Trump?

Thanks. I just remembered that Republicans and Republican leaning voters vote tactically in Cali. I get a dark feeling that the rest of this Primary is going to take some strange turns.
