Amy doing great in NH.
Good news for Rachel Dratch.
How is Tulsi beating Yang? He plans to end campaign this evening.
Maybe Liz should pack it in too.

Yang has withdrawn from the race.
Warren should be next.

It would be a repeat of McGovern in '72.
Crooked president hated by the liberals. Country polarized by social issues. Upsurge in radicalism on the left. So the Democrats go with a guy who campaigns arm in arm with activists and Hollywood celebs. And he gets absolutely steamrolled.

Huh, figured he'd stick it out until Super Tuesday. I think he probably could have, with the cash he has on hand, but I guess he felt there wasn't much point, which based on the results tonight is probably correct.
Still, pretty nuts that a random dude made it this far. Certainly massively increased the approval rating for Universal Basic Income in the democratic party.

Too bad about Yang. He was the only one who peaked my interest amongst this group, and while I didn't agree with everything, I found myself nodding quite a bit whenever I listened to him talk. Hopefully he tries again next time and gets a bit more traction.

Quite the story for Yang as many have mentioned, coming this far when many other senators have already dropped out. All is not lost though, as because of Yang, America is now talking about things like UBI, AI's impact on jobs and most importantly, hopefully, his message of looking at everyone as a fellow human instead of a Republican or a Democrat will stay with people.

Boy are Warren and Biden ever getting trounced tonight. They may end the night in single digits. Bennet has also dropped out of the race.

I wonder how long Warren will stay in the race? It looks like she should drop out but at the same time she doesn't strike me as someone that will quit and give up.

Warren and Biden, the talk was all about these two last year with the national polls.
Now within a matter of two weeks, both are irrelevant.

Warren's gamble on backstabbing Bernie failed.

Why do these two tiny states matter so much?

Buttigieg might have won this thing if Biden had dropped out. If he could solve his minority support problem he'd be in pretty good shape right now.

I like how with politics, you guys are all "oh man history repeats itself blah blah" but with the economy, it's "IT'S A DIFFERENT WORLD NOW OK".
How about you lay off the crystal ball Nostradamus.

Check the PGT after the first two regular season games for most teams.
"Teams great 82-0, stanley cup"
or
"trade everyone"

Klobuchar has a rather grating speaking cadence.
She puts. pauses. and breaks. in. her speeches. at really. odd. places.
I get that she is trying to be emphatic, but it just comes off as stilted and inauthentic to me.

Momentum, which influences voting in future states and fund raising, that's all. Neither have much power in terms of delegates.
