For Biden supporters. Keep the faith. Biden has not changed overnight. He is still the best

candidate and will make a wonderful president as he unites and heals this country. He has that gift. He still has that great gift.

.@KeishaBottoms also did some history: in 1992, Bill Clinton only won one of the first 11 states. (Spoiler: he went on to the Dem nominee and served two terms as POTUS)

1. I am in no way panicked.

[emmaverybo]

2. Changed it. I know many of us holding steady to let more states have their say.

4. The media is completely ridiculous. We haven't even had one primary

And they’re running around like Henny penny proclaiming the sky is falling. I’m so tired of the lying pathetic media.

[emmaverybo]

6. You and me too. Disgusting their pernicious influence. Fair and balanced not for this primary.

I yelled at them all through Obama’s 2008 run. Now I just turn them off.

[wisteria]

10. I shut their shameless asses off.

Running their mouths and doing all they can to manipulate this election.

3. I've donated twice this month to Joe

That's the best I can do until next month. If he can just get enough to hold on until South Carolina. Just think if South Carolina went first he would be in great shape right now.

[emmaverybo]

5. Oh he would be. And what is so terrible to me is that Iowa and NH might influence his showing

in S.C. as folks believe the buzz. I have donated too as much as I can until Super Tuesday.I hope
surrogates come out strongly as has Mayor Bottoms and sure wish the NV Culinary Union would endorse him since they say they don’t want Sanders or Warren.

7. I'm amazed at how much of Biden DU supporters are ready to jump ship

when things get a bit rough. To vote for Bloomberg out of panic would mean that Biden’s 30% ceiling could dwindle to around 15%, with Bloomberg ending up at around 15% as well. This leaves Bernie the leader with around 25%.

One thing I can say about Bernie supporters is that, even after a heart attack and consistently being 2nd and 3rd in the polls, they stayed strong behind him and chose not to waver. This is how candidates win.

Sadly, we don’t seem to have that same discipline. We don’t know how to win. For us to not realize that a vote for Bloomberg is a vote for Bernie, is worrisome.

That being said, Bloomberg will be never get my vote in the Primaries. I am a true Biden supporter.

[wisteria]

9. Yes, me too. I don't think they know about Bloomberg's record as Mayor

They are being swayed by the slick commercials, and money. Bloomberg has more in common with Trump than they realize. And, Bloomberg is a political opportunist, switching parties when it suits his purposes.
I also will not vote for Bloomberg.

[emmaverybo]

12. I could not agree with you more. What a sound, politically aware analysis. I am very disappointed in

Biden’s fair weather friends and believe their impatience and fear is going to drive us to a bad choice of nominee. Your astute take makes me realize how that will play out.

This hasty and premature abandonment ignores Biden’s own steadfastness in the face of attack from all sides, the tenacity and viability he has demonstrated over the course of a year.

How ironic that Trump benefitted from a similar set of circumstances politically and a cult-like following. Of course, I do not believe Bernie’s motives, intentions, or potential presidency in any sense equivalent. To the contrary, I believe Bernie believes he can vastly improve American lives, bring us economic equality which will cure our society, and save the planet. Trump had no such good intentions, noble purpose in running, is a brute, and a moron.

I will vote Bernie though I am very afraid we will lose with him. I hope and pray Bloomberg gets
stopped. No pun intended.

16. I would vote Bernie too - he played fair.

[MustLoveBeagles]

17. I am too

It's very discouraging. I guess people are just spooked right now. I'm waiting for Super Tuesday.

[wisteria]

8. I am holding strong.

I had to shut down the pundits and political opinion pieces. Some seem to have saved their vindictiveness and meanness for this moment in time.
I have reminded myself,they no nothing.

14. I will never understand this anti-Biden bias from out the gate, and as you say, its

culmination now in a veritable outpouring of “vindictiveness and meanness.”

11. Still Standing with Joe

Because I've believed from the start he's our best candidate to win, heal, restore and move the country forward. If he can take the heat, so can we.

We'll know soon how this is going to play.
