Your mainstream media propagandists have really been trying to sell that one

You know it's a bullshit talking point yourself, your obsessive hatred for Sanders and his supporters still doesn't stop you from regurgitating it

Well, yeah, we were told to expect lower numbers by your maximum leader. But, more than half of people who voted for him the last time chose somebody else. You call that "a great mass movement"? He virtually tied with Buttigieg, a virtual unknown. All I did was state the facts. Y u so but hrt?

Reading your posts about the inevitable march to victory by Sanders is like Trump's description of the yuuuge crowds attending his inaugural address.

NH was in Sanders wheelhouse and he couldn't manage more than 25% of the vote. Granted, my candidate didn't even make the 15% cut, so I'm not exactly chipper either. Come to think of it, the two Progressives didn't attract as many votes as the moderates did. Is Sanders really the anointed one? You aren't exactly the kind to look for evidence to verify your beliefs but I do. As Brazille said, there is no evidence that your claims are true.

I'm confident that Bernie will be the democratic nominee. Once Warren drops out Bernie will gain the support needed to win.

I don't see what that has to do with delegates but even so, I don't see him ammassing a majority of support. With out that, he won't even be able to argue "bernie was cheated" like last time. The dnc is very unlikely to nominate a dying man who isn't a member of the party even if he could get a majority of support.

support =/= delegates

The real question is, will he support the nominee when it's not him.

Nonwhite voters in Iowa supported Sanders by more than 2 to 1 against the candidate banking on nonwhite voters supporting him on Super Tuesday

There goes that narrative

Kinda racist to just worry about what color his supporters are. I like the other guy, the gay combat vet with good policies and plans on how to pay for them.

Bernie's healthcare plan would add a trillion dollars to the deficit even if he could manage to repeal Trump's tax cuts.

"Bernie Sanders leads all Democratic candidates in support from non-white voters, new polls show

Senator Bernie Sanders leads all the Democratic presidential candidates in support from non-white voters and has gained 10 points among black voters, according to new polls released Tuesday.

Former Vice President Joe Biden has long touted his support from minority–and particularly black–voters to demonstrate his electability for the Democratic party's nomination. But the candidate's support has appeared to slide dramatically among all demographics since his fourth-place finish in Iowa last Monday. Meanwhile, Sanders appears to be surging.

The independent senator from Vermont is backed by 28 percent of black, non-white Hispanic and Asian voters, according to the latest polling data from Monmouth University. Biden came in second with support from 20 percent, or 8 points less than Sanders."

Sanders has more votes

Or are you gonna shift on that stance now too because Sanders leads the field and embrace Trump's electoral college win over Clinton?

I am sorry to post this because I might have to vote for this guy, but still just saw this and found it very funny so thought I would share it:

2004 NH Dem Primary turnout = 215k

2008 NH Dem Primary turnout = 287k

2016 NH Dem Primary turnout = 253k

2020 NH Dem Primary turnout = 293k with 90%+ reporting


Another talking point demolished

Record high turnout, especially with the youth

You didn't demolish shit. There are almost 95,226 additional voters in New Hampshire now than they were 12 years ago. Did twitter forget to mention that?

Trump is why turnouts were as high as they were. People have been anticipating this primary for years. I'm disappointed that it wasn't better.

25% of the Democratic vote for Sanders -- 75,000 in all is laughably low considering the weight Pad puts on this primary. More Sanders voters from 2016 switched their vote from Bernie to somebody else than voted for him in 2020.

2% of delegates have been allocated and Bernie has less than half of those. Bernie's supporters were every bit as confident four years ago when Clinton mopped the floor with him in many of the following primaries.

This thing is hardly over. Probably is for Warren. I'm curious what she decides to do. My hope is she pulls back on spending so that she can stick around and can pull votes away from Sanders throughout the primary. We need a Democrat who works well with others in the WH. Not another useless do-nothing divisive president. Even if he's better than Trump.

Ohhhhhh don't you worry they'll try to shove Buttigieg or Klobachar down our throats at some point..my Canadian friend is now saying Sanders is too Socialist for America 'you dems better do something and quick'..see how propaganda gets to people? And he's a smart guy..our newly crowned dictator and media speculation have gotten to him.

Remember, Buttigieg and Klobuchar have zero minority support.

I fully expect them to cave by South Carolina..and if you have to take billionaire money to stay afloat, ask yourself 'why aren"t my constituents supporting me?'
