#2 Received 255K votes. Bloomberg was not on the ballet and also got no write in votes. A big zero for him.

#3 Race to the bottom.
Oblivion awaits.
That's the Shitshow, Jake

#4 Give him the 48 hour rule and he'll be calling it a North Carolina win.

#6 I think they are hearing constant laughter from the White House.

#7 Biden is not well-organized. Bernie has a better organization. A lot of younger people believe his campaign of "free stuff."

He has not had much of a presence in rallies. Super Tuesday is coming up. It a long way to the convention. Biden has a lot of distractions and probably more to come. Doesn't look like he can campaign in Ukraine without getting arrested.

Communist vs. Criminal. Look for some Darkhorse at convention time.

#8 Is it ok to call Hillary a dark horse at this point or John effin' Kerry?

I've been a bit surprised that there's been no significant media buzz for one of the Dem governors up till now. Too late to build one of them up for the convention.

#9 ^ You mean Inslee or Hickenlooperpooper?

#10 Brokered convention. I would bet money Hillary gets a position somewhere.

#12 The late, great Walt Kelly of Pogo comic strip fame had a poem apropos to the dems:

Promote the prating prim
Of the prudent promisor
For the premise of the promise
Was the primogenitor
Of the primalacious program
With the presbyopic door

#13 If you assume that no Dem can survive the scrutiny of the nomination process, then this kind of makes sense. Let the cannon fodder chew itself up for months. Then a white knight / dark horse "healing dream team" gets nominated at a brokered convention. No fussy voters to bother with. Problem is you can't keep doing it over and over.

#14 Joe Biden wins the South Carolina Democratic Primary

Proving you can indeed drag a dead horse across the finish line.
