Ok let's get real people

Yang is dropping out soon. No traction
Klobuchar same. Gonna run out of money

So the race is between Mayor Pete, Bernie, Warren, and Biden.

And Bloomberg—got money and we don’t know what will happen with Super Tuesday

If Democrats refuse to vote for any one of these folks in the general then we’ve already lost. But let’s say all the drms vote for the nominee and don’t pout because their favorite didn’t win

Repubs are gonna vote for trump 40%.

Who can get the middle 20% in the battleground states cause that’s the game people?

Red states are red and blue states are blue.

primary today, I would vote for:

3. It really is good to consider the "heartland" voters.

They get all the eyes and are all the talk. Appeal to some in those areas to pick up more votes and "free media".

6. One can't "continue" to win if one hasn't begun winning yet. He lost Iowa with 1/4 of the votes.

14. Iowa has 2 winners this time around. Odd, I know, but the agreed upon rules make it so.

It was agreed that there would be 3 results, with the possibility of there being multiple winners.

There's the pre-alignment vote total (Sanders), the final vote total (Sanders) and the state delegate equivalents (Buttigieg).

13. She'll probably drop out before Super Tuesday.

You can't come in 5th, or even 4th, in each of the first 4 contests and stay in the race. She needed to win Iowa or at least come in a close 2nd--that was really her only shot.
