Warren its time to say goodbye [View all]

I love you & your policies but staying in the race at this point is not for the American people it is for yourself.

A 3rd place finish in Iowa then losing more ground and finishing 4th with 9% in NH, a neighboring state to your home state.

Currently polling at 3rd or 4th in Nevada & 4th in South Carolina. There is no state on the map that the campaign can point to and say they will win. There is no road to victory at this point.

This only hurts you politically. You will be taking up space on the debate stage for candidates that still have a chance to win.

I would be making the same case for Joe but he is currently ahead in South Carolina & Nevada. He is also in top 2 in national polling. There is a path to winning the nomination. I would actually say a strong one. If he wins Nevada and South Carolina you will hear all the "comeback kid" talk and he will have lots of momentum.

But nobody can look at what has happen and look at the numbers for future states and make a case that Warren has any shot.

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

Absolutely not!!!!!! Peacetrain Feb 2020 #11

I hate this primary system. Liberal In Texas Feb 2020 #12

Not only are they small states, they are very unrepresentative justhanginon Feb 2020 #24

I support Pete, but I am not in favour of telling Senator Warren to drop out after only 2 states Celerity Feb 2020 #18

So, should Biden drop out, too? obamanut2012 Feb 2020 #19

Bullshit. nt LexVegas Feb 2020 #22

Yes... That should really be an issue. LaurenOlimina Feb 2020 #30

And she held her fire. denem Feb 2020 #31

Then the Biden voters will go to Klobuchar and Buttigieg. Mars and Minerva Feb 2020 #90

and no one even has 30% of the ones distributed... JCMach1 Feb 2020 #43

This is one of the things I loathe about our party candidate selection process. Pacifist Patriot Feb 2020 #44

Proportional distribution is something that was pushed for years... JCMach1 Feb 2020 #47

Absurd to pretend that the first two steps in a marathon indicate the eventual victor. LanternWaste Feb 2020 #45

I'm not even a Warren supporter, but this take is completely ridiculous. nsd Feb 2020 #46

Stop. It's two unrepresentative states with a small number of delegates. The Velveteen Ocelot Feb 2020 #51

She would be a fool to get out now. Srkdqltr Feb 2020 #53

She has a great platform pattyloutwo Feb 2020 #54

She's not listening,"98% of the people haven't been heard from, this is going to be a long primary" Baclava Feb 2020 #56

Fighters don't quit. E.W. believes in her candidacy. Fight on Elizabeth. oasis Feb 2020 #70

NH was a must-win for her, especially after a poor showing in Iowa. Garrett78 Feb 2020 #72

finally someone else agrees LeftTurn3623 Feb 2020 #73

Outside the DU bubble, you'll find lots of agreement. Garrett78 Feb 2020 #75

To be fair, her showing in Iowa wasn't a bad one. StevieM Feb 2020 #74

Given where she had been polling, I'd say IA was a disappointment. Anyway, we're on the same page. Garrett78 Feb 2020 #77

Hmm ... all these BlueMTexpat Feb 2020 #76

Your logic for pushing out Warren also applies to Klobuchar and even Buttigieg. LonePirate Feb 2020 #81
