Breaking news: Trump is unhinged. Slagging Dem candidates even worse than pac. Also apparently doesn't realize Bloonberg wasn't on the ballot.

hope the moderates don't divide the party and cause a brokered convention. the democrat party must unify behind the frontrunner who won the popularity vote.

Buttigieg the delegate leader after two contests.

Hopefully pacino falls in line quickly.

I really can’t stand Buttigieg.

The obvious carbon copying of Obama’s cadence isn’t helping.

Nevertheless this must be viewed as a disappointing result to outright setback for Sanders.

What an odd feeling, having results the same night the voting took place.

What is Buttigieg’s platform like? I’ve heard him speak many times, but I’ve never heard him say anything.

TBF Fox "broke" a story about how Buttigieg wrote a prize winning essay on Sanders back on high school yesterday, I guess revealing him to a commie in hiding or something.

I certainly didn't come up with the delegate allocation rules for the Democratic Party

Though if I had it'd be less democratic than what they have now. Would've thought the GOP shitshow from 2016 would've led to an increase in super delegates, not a decrease.

See, besides the obvious shot at the age difference between them inherent in that “compliment,” I see a more subtle shot along the lines of “back when I was an immature child I admired Senator Sanders, but now that I am an adult and am funded by billionaires I know where my bread is buttered and therefore his ideas are just pie-in-the-sky idealism.”

For a sub 40 year old this is awfully cynical. It’ll be a long time before I am over it. Of the four moderates, I think Klobuchar is the best candidate, but if I had to pick a personal fave, I’d actually go Biden. Bloomberg and Buttigieg annoy me too much, and Klobuchar is mean to her staff and I don’t like that.

At this point, on a personal level, I am Warren/Sanders/Biden, on a real level I am Sanders or bust because the latter two are cooked.

I’ll vote for Buttigieg/Klobuchar/Bloomberg in November but I won’t like it.

Sanders should just run that fact in an ad in every primary state where Bloomberg registers in polling at all.

You don’t know because he isn’t saying anything really and he lulls you to sleep. Obama’s cadence works because he was saying something, Pete is offering nothing.
