Warren looks set to be the spoiler now. No path to victory. Undermining her loyalty to progressive causes. If you can believe she ever was. Her contemporary and colleague, Drucilla Cornells’ spilling the tea, has been making the rounds lately:
My guess is she shanks Sanders at the convention for a Biden VP slot or similar. Time will tell.
With all that has happened, Buttigeig, Klobuchar dropping out, endorsing Biden. Beto O'Rourke, Texas also endorsed Biden. I'll be watching Texas, North Carolina, Virginia. States in which Sanders had a small lead of 5 points give or take a point or two back on 28 Feb. Minnesota also where Sanders had taken a two point lead over Klobuchar with Biden in single digits.
California, Colorado, Maine plus a couple or more others look like a lock for Sanders. At least before the last day or two. Early voting may save Sanders on Super Tuesday especially in Texas.
I wonder how those who voted early, for Klobuchar, Buttigieg and Steyer now feel having no say among those remaining. I also wonder if any of those who voted early would change their minds over the happenings yesterday and a day or two before that. We'll never know.
It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.
I Just heard a story on the radio about voters going in to voting stations with their ballots to change their votes in person.
Is that allowed? I never heard of that. It could vary between states. I know here in Georgia, once you voted, early or at the polls on election day, there's no changing your vote.

Lizzy will try to position herself as the alternative to Bernie and Joe.
Bernie and Liz are the two I would be most comfortable with.
So far Warren isn't drawing much of a crowd. After Beto flamed out I thought Warren might position herself between the two. No one can ever accuse her of being a socialist. She's not. But she's a progressive. I'd rather have Warren than Sanders. But I want one or the other of them since everyone else worth a feck has dropped out.
I've sworn a blood oath against Biden or Bloomberg though.
Of those two I'd far rather have Bloomberg. I think he'd be an able administrator and would appoint qualified people to get the US Government re-staffed and back in running order again. But that business of buying his way in disqualifies him.
Biden wins NC and Virginia by taking around 55% of the black vote. Both NC and Virginia in 2016, blacks made up 38% of the total Democratic Primary Vote. What's interesting is a week ago, sanders had the lead in both these states. Abet a small one of roughly around 5 points.
