Sad to see Pete drop out, but he did the right thing. I am now all on the Biden train, as we simply

must stop Sanders and then CRUSH Trump.

After Super Tuesday Klobuchar and Bloomberg absolutely need to drop out, as they both draw directly from Biden far more than anyone else now left and have zero path to winning.

I am so so proud of Pete, and he did his best to block Sanders in the first two crucial states, winning the most delegates in IA and tying Bernie in NH for delegates.

Go Joe!!!

I am staying with Warren til she says it's over. I see it as my way to show my faith in a woman running for president who shares my values and my goals for this country.

If she drops out then I will be 100% for our nominee who I hope will be Joe.

That's it for now...

I do think we'll attract more women (not repukes of course but Independents) with Warren.

As a moderate democrat, when she speaks on progressive issues, I want to listen to and understand her POV. In 2016 and this year I’ve never felt the need to listen to or consider anything Sanders was saying. I’d happily support her if she was the nominee.

it will be clear in a few weeks that Sanders will not get the majority he wanted or the plurality he hoped for.

but I feel like having a good cry and a beer. Celerity, you made some of the best posts about Mayor Pete, and they were part of what convinced me to vote for him in the SC primary. I look forward to your wisdom from future postings.
