Sanders and Warren...and Buttigieg seems to be the darling of these states with mostly white voters, you would get want your candidate to get out of Dodge and work on an area that he can win.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Trump wins.... FarPoint Feb 2020 #63

This doesn't mean Trump wins. Come on! n/t zackymilly Feb 2020 #73

He should have left last night - other places to be and other people to see. MY opinion - thanks. Skya Rhen Feb 2020 #3

+1, its the media that over values NH and IA relative to democratic party electorate. uponit7771 Feb 2020 #27

Yes but the never Bidens live in a negative reality LakeArenal Feb 2020 #31

Why waste time there when you can shore up your firewall? BusyBeingBest Feb 2020 #4

He's being pragmatic, IMO... cynatnite Feb 2020 #5

See ya Joe.. jalan48 Feb 2020 #6

While he could do more in SC, the problem is that this is now the lead story Mike 03 Feb 2020 #7

Yes squirecam Feb 2020 #10

Until the next lead story. LakeArenal Feb 2020 #32

10000000+ wisteria Feb 2020 #60

Then they are lying and creating a narrative that doesn't exist wisteria Feb 2020 #48

Here's Joe Biden wasting money on a party in IA... brooklynite Feb 2020 #68

I would call it "Bullshit News" instead. TexasTowelie Feb 2020 #81

I made this exact point here and in another thread. Mike 03 Feb 2020 #82

One of the few times I agree with Joe. brutus smith Feb 2020 #8

If he is that cash poor squirecam Feb 2020 #19

No time to waste on unimportant states. democratisphere Feb 2020 #12

Calling states 'unimportant' is ... not good optics. AtheistCrusader Feb 2020 #15

Actually, he called it "unrepresentative"...on national TV this morning. brooklynite Feb 2020 #69

I meant Democratisphere, not Biden. AtheistCrusader Feb 2020 #78

Now we blame Joe for the parsing of words in your comment LakeArenal Feb 2020 #34

Biden needs to drop out of the race entirely. Yavin4 Feb 2020 #13

Iowa and New Hampshire are unimportant in the National picture. democratisphere Feb 2020 #16

Stick a fork in it. denem Feb 2020 #20

hey at least he's doing better than 2008?! Locrian Feb 2020 #24

And 2008 went better than 1988. At this rate, 2048 is looking good for Biden. Garrett78 Feb 2020 #45

This. Joe's going to have to shift focus from saving "the soul of the nation" to fending off Mike 03 Feb 2020 #65

IA and NH is not winner take all so there's no "lose big", that's M$M thinking not math uponit7771 Feb 2020 #29

They effectively are WTA if you don't get any delegates at all brooklynite Feb 2020 #71

Delegates count can be split, that's not WTA for any single candidate uponit7771 Feb 2020 #88

Bill Clinton lost five primaries or so.. LakeArenal Feb 2020 #37

It was precisely how well Clinton did in NH that propelled him forward. Garrett78 Feb 2020 #47

Time will tell. LakeArenal Feb 2020 #51

He must be expecting 4th/5th place. tritsofme Feb 2020 #14

It makes sense to me. NH will probably go to Bernie. Better to go batten down the hatches Vivienne235729 Feb 2020 #17

+1, and its not a winner take all state so Biden will still get a share of delegates uponit7771 Feb 2020 #30

Exactly! Vivienne235729 Feb 2020 #35

WRONG: You don't understand the process... brooklynite Feb 2020 #74

Biden isn't going anywhere. wisteria Feb 2020 #53

Biden can thank Bloomberg for sabotaging his campaign Doremus Feb 2020 #23

Bloomberg sabotaged Biden by...attacking Trump? brooklynite Feb 2020 #25

No, by siphoning Biden voters where there were underfunded candidates uponit7771 Feb 2020 #33

Again...siphoning voters by attacking Trump. brooklynite Feb 2020 #36

relative to Bloomberg hell yes uponit7771 Feb 2020 #38

So are Pete, Bernie, Elizabeth and Amy...they seem to be doing better. brooklynite Feb 2020 #43

Than Biden? I don't see that in an aggregate of polling uponit7771 Feb 2020 #52

We're discussing NH brooklynite Feb 2020 #56

So far, he hasn't directly siphoned votes democrattotheend Feb 2020 #39

Bloomberg isn't competing in the first four states. Kaleva Feb 2020 #49

Exactly democrattotheend Feb 2020 #64

Nope...you wouldn't. If you were pretty sure that you can't win and this is a state near both Demsrule86 Feb 2020 #70

The primary is today Bettie Feb 2020 #62

So there's not gonna be a party and he's leaving tonight awesomerwb1 Feb 2020 #66

Good move...it is not his turf as both Warren and Sanders are from nearby states. Demsrule86 Feb 2020 #67

Biden is running for the exit. denem Feb 2020 #72

Biden needs to stay there, win or lose. It makes him look defeated. zackymilly Feb 2020 #75
