10. Sanders hasn't really been challenged yet.

The other contenders seem fearful to go hard on Bernie.

Bloomberg is just getting started, and has the organization and resources to carpet bomb Sanders with the truth about his record, policies, etc.

Sanders may still come out on top, but would've been fully vetted.

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