Texas Senate debate
KVUE hosts U.S. Senate Texas Democratic primary debate – Feb. 18, 2020 | KVUE
As part of its Emmy-winning #VoteTexas initiative, KVUE hosted a debate Feb. 18 between the U.S. Senate Democratic candidates facing incumbent Republican Sen...www.youtube.com
They have them sitting in those mid century chairs you see in every airbnb. this is hilarious lol
EDIT: also, it's very boring
Bloomberg is the only candidate that was able to put a meaningful dent in Biden's coalition, and did it without winning any states or appearing in any debates.
A Bloomberg that manages not to screw up on stage in Nevada is a massive problem for everyone.
Obama and Clinton were both far stronger primary election candidates than anyone in the field currently.
The last few pages have been fucking gloom-and-doom bonkers.
Can't wait to see Bloomberg get absolutely dogpiled tomorrow night.
his speech at the 2016 convention where he just shit on trump was kind of funny tho
Oh I know.
I was just making fun of the fact that the 2008 primary was pretty much a toss up for the vast majority of the primaries. If the predictions from folks like Nate turn out true, then this year's primaries could be over rather fast.
Also has a pretty big blind spot with older voters that neither Obama nor Clinton had.
OP
OP
Warren is great on policy and knowing what needs to be fixed :(
If he was at Obama/Clinton level the election would effectively be over already.
edit: or are people missing that I'm talking about their electoral strength.
Yeah, you have to imagine a hypothetical 08/16 Clinton, not post-16 Clinton, who is a nonstarter.
This is my biggest fear with Bernie. Young people historically are shit at turning out. I don't know what Bernie can do about his old people problem. It might be that they turn out anyway if he ends up being the nominee.
Seems like a perfect time to break out the Voter Shaming Machine that sees so much use in Democratic politics tbh
Both Warren and Sanders have a "public" and a "private" position on him being at the Debates lol
Bernie is at a stunning 53% with Latinos in CA.
To no one's surprise, Warren's at 18% in the SF Bay Area and 12% in LA.
Pete at 19% with Whites while Biden is at 9% is also unsurprising as a CA Resident.

Bloombito vs. The World tomorrow night.
I won't be able to watch it though. Will have to see dem clips.
There's early voting here next week but it's all during the week anyway, may as fucking well do it day of. They couldn't be arsed to do weekend early voting.
If he was at the clinton level people wouldn't have run against him because they respect his position in the party....not because he would have had the race wrapped up...
I'm gonna be in Europe and shit I may stay up to watch that shit.
Biden shattered his own coalition by performing so horribly in the first two contests. His collapse probably wouldn't have been as dramatic if Bloomberg hadn't entered the race, but Bernie would still get the boost he seems to have gotten.
I don't see how it's anyone but Bernie at this point but I think your scenario is the only logical way forward for Pete.
Also while this isn't shown in the data, my gut tells me that Pete's homosexuality is materially hurting him and he may struggle to extend his share of the vote. I doubt we'll ever know for sure though given there are a number of perfectly valid reasons to not like Pete.
Well why did he underperform? Was it organization? Outreach? I just think he's not a particularly inspiring candidate and he's basically flopped whenever he isn't talking about pain and personal suffering.
Because the media keeps saying "Pete won Iowa" 🙄
I wish I were kidding
Organization seems to be the big issue. He's never run a good Presidential campaign.
I also think decades of "first in the nation" status has made huge swathes Iowa and New Hampshire voters a bunch of pampered little weirdos who love to be wowed and flattered by novelty and spectacle and Biden doesn't know or care to do that.
democrats need to unite and support the candidate even if they don't personally like them
Case in point:
You can clearly see what happened with almost everyone's poll numbers the moment Biden collapsed. Bernie and Bloomberg took advantage of Biden's fall more than anyone else, but pretty much everyone saw their support rise. Warren was really the only one that didn't benefit.
lmao misspelling her name is the final cherry on top of that shit sundae
Hillary was hated but also did inspire a lot of diehard fans. People also really wanted to see a woman President so that gave her novelty.
Biden doesn't inspire anything. Nobody feels strongly about Biden. Well, until you see all those creep photos. Nobody wants to go back to 2008 and even if they did, Biden isn't the one to do it.

Buttigieg and Bloomberg should do what Trump does and buy a few black supporters with all that campaign money they've got access to.
