Biden will win in the South.

Pete is gay, so that is out.
Bernie is a communist, so dead out.
Bloomberg has no appeal and cant invest enough in each state to matter

Klobuchar is broke.

I’m voting for Bernie in the primary, Trump in the general. I’d urged everyone to do the same.

Under no circumstances do I want him one step away from the presidency.

And Stacy Abrams two steps away. Oy vey.

If Bernie wins South Carolina Biden is out. Two horse race between Sanders and Bloomberg.


Need Biden to win SC and do decent on Super Tuesday.

Warren and Amy are dropping out soon. Need Biden to stay in to make things fun and nasty for the Dems.

I don’t think a gay person, an unattractive bitter woman nor a socialist can win in the South.

That just leaves Biden and Bloomberg.

Bloomberg has alienated rural voters and black people.

So that leaves - southern black democrats to Biden, White Yankees hell bent on ruining Ga and Tenn over the age of 35 to Bloomberg and college students at liberal arts colleges to Bernie.

Let him win. He won’t be POTUS regardless. But, we can get a good idea on how many in this country are willing to subvert to a socialist/communist government.

The simple answer is “no”.

Segments in cities like New Orleans, Austin and Atlanta will support Bernie, but that’s about it.

Yes. Momentum (winning some other states) and popularity makes it easier to win in the South.

If the primaries started in the South then Biden and Warren would probably have all the momentum right now going into other primaries.

Even if he won I don't see him making it through the entire term. Crazy he would be sworn in at 79 with at least one heart attack under his belt. His selection for VP will be very interesting.

We elected governor honor code. He should win Louisiana.

Not in November.


Exactly. There's a lot of R's voting for Bernie in the primaries. But that's strategic. He loses massively come November.
