(3,256 posts)1. Not all Warren supporters will go to Bernie. 70% will go to Biden.
2. But if Bloomberg drops out, Bernie will be finished for good.

(26,997 posts)But perhaps some of Bernie's supporters should do a little self-reflecting before they start flinging verbal poo at someone whose endorsement they may need. Doesn't reflect well on their candidate. At all.

Siwsan
(26,997 posts)I am a big fan of Senator Warren. She's been my 2nd choice, pretty much all along. Also, I supported Bernie in 2016. I just really didn't feel this is his time, anymore. Just my personal view. I have a lot of respect for Senator Sanders.
And I really don't want to get into any spats with DUers, over any of this, so if I offended you, please accept my sincere apology.

(6,409 posts)I just cannot handle the prospect of Bernie ( the hate monger #2) being the nominee. And despite Warren being my first choice and preferred candidate, I voted for Biden. As did my ex and my daughter and all the other Warren supporters that I know.
The idea of Bernie handing us 4 more years of Trump is so much more than I can take.
But I feel bad. I feel like a traitor in fact.
Because I have loved a Warren for a long time. And think that she would make the best president.

(8,419 posts)I would never entertain Bloomberg, the issue is, there are a huge number of people like me, fine with Warren, not with Bernie. Her support does not translate to Bernie support. I like her, was going to vote for her as of two days ago. Team Bernie flipped me to Joe. I am a hard core liberal, Bernie lost me years ago.

(8,419 posts)Needed to make a decision. Decided Warren can't win so that took her out. So it came down to Bernie or Joe. That was an easy decision. I have zero trust in Bernie. That is based on his past actions, and his surrogates actions.
Now I could sit back an pout and deal with more years of tRump and repukes or go for the win and move forward!
I will take it further, anyone who doesn't get this needs to sit down and really think, because never in my life have I seen an election that can't be lost. 2008 was bad, 2020 is to save Western Democracies.

rufus dog
(8,419 posts)I was going to vote for Warren as recent as 30 hours ago.
Switched from Warren to Biden, and the switch was directly related to Team Bernie's actions.
There are a whole lot of people out there like me. Bernie is the absolute last choice.

W_HAMILTON
(8,211 posts)It's like the ghosts of candidates past coming back to exact karmic justice on the Sanders people.
What goes around, comes around.
Even if Warren were to drop out AND endorse Sanders, I imagine that a sizable chunk of her voters will never vote for Sanders because of what he and his supporters have done.
We tried to tell y'all to cut the crap, but the insults and attacks just kept coming and coming.

The Sanders campaign confirmed to The Associated Press on Monday that the message was sent to a possible voter through Sanders messaging system by a rogue campaign volunteer."

(26,955 posts)Joe has to focus on triage with international relations. Warren could be the architect to drive real domestic policy changes working with Pelosi and Schumer. Consolidate the critical progressive/moderate vote with Biden/Warren. A balanced ticket and 2 capable people to deal with the damage of 21st century Republicanism.
Also, Adam Schiff as Attorney General.

(3,623 posts)...when Bloomberg drops out, probably 90% or more of those voters will go to Biden. I think Joe will easily go past 2,000 delegates before the convention.

Jarqui
(10,395 posts)A bunch of Warren supporters would support Biden - who is the preference of women.
Sanders may well get more than Joe but it would be nothing close to a major shift into Sanders column and little for Joe.
Elizabeth has done so poorly tonight that I do not think it would be a big deal. Most of the states, she's less than 15%. Let's be generous and say 60% go to Sanders and 40% go to Biden. On 15% of the votes, the net effect is 3% more for Sanders. When you project that 3% difference to delegates - it is not an enormous shift.
Sanders also has to fear Bloomberg dropping out because the opposite happens. Biden would get a 3% bump - very roughly. But in delegates, again, it is not earth shattering.
