4. The dominant narrative makes polling irrelevant.

The narrative is now that the vp of the most popular president in recent history came 4th to a socialist, small town mayor and consumer advocate.unless somebody solidly replaces Biden, Bernie is unstoppable after he wins Iowa.

6. The problem with these projections are that there are many people who will never vote for Bernie..

no matter what happens in Iowa or NH. If Biden completely falters, his voters will flip to someone else like Pete or Warren or Bloomberg, but will never ever vote for Bernie. He has burned too many bridges.

BTW, I will eat my hat if Sanders win Alabama.

The concensus is Nate is angling for rotating spot on MSNBC's brand new- Catapulting the Narrative of First State Primacy Until the Fuckers Crack with Chuck Todd.

Like Tenn. and Alabama are going to do a double digit reverse on account of a socialist's unheralded slog to second place and .55% of the delegates needed to win.

Warren is +.4 over Biden in Mass., Bernie is 3rd. Warren is +10 over Klobuchar in Minn., Bernie 4th. WTF!

Bernie is in 5th place in Oklahoma, 21 points behind first place Biden. Oklahoma! 5th fucking place. And now he's going to win?



I think that guy is a laughable sack of...' 'What?'

'He's got 2nd place in Iowa?' 'And he's got .55% of the delegates?'

'That's almost one!' 'Only 99.45 % left to go.'

'I'll cast aside all my previous assessments and go with him!' "Because Iowa.'

Meanwhile new polls have been rolling in all week totally undercutting his forecasts.






Those are from this morning,

Alabama now +21 Biden. More ludicrous than this morning's winner Tenn. at +20.

8. PPP had a new poll out of NC today giving Biden still a 3-1 lead among African-Americans

with Bloomberg in second and Bernie in third. If that is true of other southern states particularly a deep southern state with a high percentage of black voters like Alabama it is unlikely that Bernie will win.
