Joe Biden is going to have to face facts if he doesn't win SC. It will be interesting if the DNC eventually gives some gentle nudges to Biden and Amy but it's too early for that to happen. Joe is supremely stubborn so he might be in for the long haul no matter what.

He maybe stubborn but I hope he can crunch numbers. His campaign isn't going anywhere.

I'm sorry sis, this vid is hard to get through. Pete is an incredibly disingenuous candidate, and I've been following politics for a bit now :saladga: 

"Voters don't have to choose between a revolution and the establishment" is a weird take, because Pete is... the epitome of the establishment? :duck: 

"I'm offering a way to solve those problems and leave our country less polarized"

Allowing some people to refinance some of their debt, forgiving just a bit for a few and NOT making college tuition free because you don't wan't people "paying for rich kids to go to college" does not solve the student debt crisis, and contributes to polarization. People are polarized because the problems aren't getting solved because Republicans don't want to solve them, and Dems aren't willing to work against their own financial interests to get them solved and or too afraid to stand up to Republicans :deadbanana:

He was right on abortion though. Meghan is paid to be wrong and myopic on these things, and I find her mostly despicable :rip: He made an incredibly astute moral case and was realistic about late-term abortions. TBH, i'm surprised he didn't back down from it, many politicians would shy away from that issue.

Yes, it might hurt him with the evangelicals who are always pro-life and are okay with racism if it means we can destroy roe v rade down the line - the evangelical crowd is not the swing vote crowd.

Mayor Pete made not one, not two, not three but SEVERAL points

I may have to stan

This is a bad reason to stan tbh, they’re not unique points at all. He’s basically uplifting all the candidates to choose from as well as himself 🙃

So another upset for Biden. Biden and Amy need to bow out immediately so Pete can start slaying Bernie.

Pete has no path forward after New Hampshire with low single digit support from the Black and Latinx community. You guys really need to accept this. He is dead on arrival in Nevada and South Carolina and when it gets to Super Tuesday (which Nate Silver at 538 now projects Sanders to sweep), his voters will be split with Bloomberg and Biden (if Biden stays in that far).

Great news for Mayor Pete, New Hampshire race is tightening. Newest poll. Released today. Within the 4.4 point margin of error.

"A Monmouth University poll released Thursday shows Sanders with support from 24 percent of likely voters, putting him narrowly ahead of Buttigieg at 20 percent."

RCP has him down an average of ten points from Sanders and behind Biden. I want him to come in second in New Hampshire, which he may. That way Biden will officially be done and the Sanders can win Nevada and South Carolina and then sweep Super Tuesday.

Wait until Biden and Obama endorse him.

And how did that RCP number on the Iowa Caucus come out for you...i'll tell you, Mayor Pete overperfomed by +10.

I dont think it will happen in the end, but it would have been interesting to see a US gay president relations with homophobic nations. :ohwell:
