(8,148 posts)most likely, as a projection based on the primary contest thus far, to win the nomination and go on to beat Trump. Now, Clinton might have influenced primary voters and the voters we need in the GE to consider the source, as they encounter lies and distortions Bernies campaign promotesagainst Warren too.
If theres backlash, well, those Bernie supporters whose motto is Bernie or bust were always going to defect if their idol was not nominated.
True progressives, as opposed to cult followers, will vote blue to stop Trump. And although Biden consistently leads the pack, anything can and does happen. If Warren were to pick up, becoming the nominee, she would have also escaped damage from Bernies scorched earth campaigning, also benefit from Hilarys honest evaluation and corral the progressive vote.
Hilarys assessment helps us far more than it harms. Further, she is a far more popular and accomplished political figure than Bernie whose divisive politicking is more than a meme,
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
