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

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

Stick a fork in it. denem Feb 2020 #20

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

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

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