I think its over for Warren, I also think the Party is telling Bernie that he's not the guy.

Warren should be out. She is smart enough to get out.

Regarding the party and Bernie and Biden I foresee another big mistake brewing. I equate Biden to Clinton in 2018. Just not really likeable enough to get the vote out.

So Biden wins Massachusetts and Minnesota. Two states he did not campaign in.

I guess tonight is a victory for our O&G industry if nothing else.

Hard not to see Joe winning the nomination at this point. Bernie needed to win a clear plurality and now the moderate wing has the race close enough to push this through.

It is clear, the establishment is still the establishment.

Biden won this nomination in 3 days.

Now that Bernie has been stalled, Warren will pack it in, mission accomplished. Wouldn't be surprised if she ends up VP or some other plum reward.

Can't wait for Biden to nominate Hillary as the VP and everyone collectively lose their minds...

For policy reasons and perceived chance of victory, Democrat voters wanted a moderate for this election. The moderates were taking 60% or more in every state. The last 3 days just let them figure out who to consolidate that vote to.

Biden is a complete moron. This will be an easy victory for Trump once Biden's incompetence is exposed to the masses.
Another victory for the 0.1%. Looks like I'll be voting independent again.

Hillary was uniquely hated. Biden gets a little of the anti-establishment hate, but generally is well liked. There's a huge difference between the two.

It will not be an election based on the competence of the candidates.

Sanders seems to be way under-performing 2016, and now that the moderates have consolidated, he's not being that competitive.

This whole victim card playing in reference to the media is so tiresome. Unless there are some big changes, Sanders chances will be <10% in a couple weeks. Staying in, rallying his supporters against the establishment, blah blah blah doesn't accomplish anything but helping Trump.
538 before tonight already had it this morning has biden of about 3 in 10 winning the delegates by the convention, sanders 1 in 10, and a contested convention as 6 in 10 which is a biden win

Tonight makes it way lower for bernie

Bloomberg and Warren dropping out tomorrow has to put Bernie down to the 1 in 50 range and pretty much eliminates a contested convention.

Excited for 24/7 ads showing Biden sniffing underage girls hair for the next 6 months.

What an easy target for the Republicans.
