The level of terror in the liberal media is palpable. The big stories last night and today are how Pete was second and abusive boss Klobuchar came in third. I still firmly expect Bloomberg to get the nomination after the DNC and super delegates hand it to him but that’s going to be a loss. Intentionally putting your finger on the scale to spit in the eye of “the people” because of antiquated ideas about electability is going to cost the Dems big time IMO

Bernie's ideas don't even get passed in if Dems hold both houses though, and I'm of the belief that the threat of Bernie lowers the chances of control of either or both houses. I think he'd create a lot of split tickets.
I don't think that last night was good at all for the far left. Sanders/Warren accounting for a third of the vote in a primary he won almost 2-1 last time does not create a good path for him going forward. With so many candidates still in and no one near 50% yet, these primaries are a lot more about looking with how the votes split than who eeks out a win. So far it is looking like 65/35 in favor of the moderates, so really nothing to be afraid of.
