Seems like a lot of the California delegates haven't been totaled yet. The NY Times chart below shows less than 90% of the vote counted. Come on it's almost Friday already. If anyone can find out if all of them have been assigned in the delegate totals we see on the net.


The wait's driving me nuts. Want to see Biden ahead in the final Super Tuesday count but don't know if he'll wind up just a hair below Sanders because of the possible incomplete results from CA.

You don't think Sanders has some chinks in his armor?

They will pound his friendliness with Cuba, simultaneously taking out South Florida.
Just use the word socialist over and over. With some actual facts, vice innuendo.

The problem is, so what? Every candidate has an exploitable flaw that Trump will use and he's very good at it. That is one of the main reasons he beat Hillary. It didn't matter that her life has been put through infinite partisan investigations that turned up nothing, that didn't affect the level of exploitable suspicion one bit.

Trump will exploit the Hunter issue and many people will lap it up. Biden has an even worse problem though, his current Cognitive Ability. If he has an episode, like he's been having, on stage against Trump, it's game over.

Here is Kyle making the same argument, but with examples...

Jesus Christ himself could run as the D nominee and the attacks would still flow.

I get it, I was really worried about Biden and how weakly he was handling the Ukraine bs.

He ain't perfect, but he's the best we got, and he needs to step up his game. We can't afford for any D to blow it.
Well, I agree with one thing. He certainly needs to step up his game. Putting together coherent sentences would be a start.

Depends on if he's debating someone who seems to be having a mild stroke or loose dentures. And maybe having the sniffles.

President Obama pulled strings behind the scenes to give Joe Biden a super tuesday bump...

Like Kyle said if Biden wins we'll see two people with signs of Dementia in the general election and it'll be a fucking satire come to real life... only ironically Trump is having an easier time forming relatively coherent sentences than Joe "I like racist southern assholes" Biden.

Thanks a whole lot you sellout Obama you're increasing the chance of Trump getting a second Term

Do we really want to go down that path? If so, the entirety of American politics would be suspect. Almost everyone that is in an appointed position is there because "they knew someone".
Corruption is a gradient, and some degrees of it do not matter and in fact, is probably a business/social lubricant in most cases.

Sometimes your president needs to sell his peanut farm though, so to speak.

Thanks Obama!

Now please explain how Obama convinced more people to go out and vote for Joe in the Primary and somehow won't do the same during the election?

Reading these complaints from the youth and demand progressive changes. Isn’t it most important to repair the damage that has occurred from last 3 years first? Like will many not vote out of spite if Sanders isn’t the candidate? Like you really want the responsibility of 4 more years of Trump?

They didn't get out for the Primary to nominate Bernie, why anyone would think they'll get out for the election but not the Primary is beyond me.

As suspected, you made up the claim. Fuck your feels.

You can read this as well:


Which says

Obama reportedly did not directly tell Buttigieg to endorse former Vice President Joe Biden. But he did tell the former South Bend, Ind., mayor that he now has leverage and should consider how to use it, a Democratic official familiar with the conversation told the Times.

Sounds like Obama had concerns about Sanders but treaded pretty lightly. Not exactly a big deal.

now FUCK OFF!

It's a conspiracy against Bernie, the Precious One! Or maybe Pete endorsed Biden because they're more ideologically aligned than not. Duh. Bernie's shot at the nomination depended on being the plurality leader among several candidates in a brokered convention. Biden may just beat him outright.

Exactly. The salon article also talked about Obama's concerns (or shit talking if you prefer) about pretty much every candidate including Biden. Conspiracy not found.
