So many people there have voted early, before the debates, that it probably will not matter. So the earliest we will see any effect is SC

Joe now needs to come back and attack hard.

Bloomberg showed he is weak, yes, he has money but zero credibility and he's been a terrible distraction for the moderates.

Also now Klobucher is down and out.

Joe needs to come out strong and take the lead moderate role and if that means putting Bloomberg/Amy out of the game so be it. We don't have time for waffles, we need to coalesce around a strong moderate before we get into the danger zone.

They squandered valuable FREE National TV time for a piling on fest of Bloomberg instead of talking about Trump and his CABAL trying to totally take over the United States of America. Mike isn't a big mouth,shout out kind of speaker like Trump and even some on stage. I think he stood silent for several minutes thinking that Holt was going to ask HIM a question instead of yet another for Bernie and Warren. Holt lost total control of that debate very early on.

This is Joe's third presidential run and he still hasn't won a single primary.
And Joe does the best in the swing states we need to win the presidency.
