57. MA isn't exceptionally loyal to their own unless they look like winners

Mar 2020

I have several friends who were 'diehard' Warren supporters until SC. All of a sudden, they decided to vote for Joe, because 1. they realized he has a shot, 2. they realized that Liz doesn't, and 3. they do NOT like Bernie and don't think he can beat Trump.
FWIW, I'm sticking with my girl until she drops out.

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

The hubris of that is disgusting ... nolawarlock Mar 2020 #10

I think she probably just won't endorse until the primaries are over. (eom) StevieM Mar 2020 #18

That is horsehit. I voted Senator Warren in 2012 although I had to follow a CentralMass Mar 2020 #31

Wrong ... nolawarlock Mar 2020 #44

Same here, and it takes a lot to horrify me after 3 decades blm Mar 2020 #62

Then y'all probably shouldn't have called her a snake. Codeine Mar 2020 #11

Clever. n/t customerserviceguy Mar 2020 #36

If you're so worried about the progressive wing, tell your candidate to drop out and support Warren. TwilightZone Mar 2020 #12

Yes. I'm sorry to see her not doing better too. Especially to fall behind Bloomberg and his $$$ hlthe2b Mar 2020 #4

too bad bdamomma Mar 2020 #5

She will rise above all this and do even more amazing things for this nation blm Mar 2020 #6

I like her and her platform maybe not the right circumstances. dem4decades Mar 2020 #7

I know, and it is really sad still_one Mar 2020 #13

I'm in Colorado and my first choice was Senator Warren ... Greywing Mar 2020 #14

Thank you, Greywing Cha Mar 2020 #22

She's under performing. Jarqui Mar 2020 #15

Tulsi has more delegates atm tonight than Warren does. Tulsi one, Warren zero, Obviously can change Celerity Mar 2020 #16

I was with her until Sunday, when the writing was on the wall. unitedwethrive Mar 2020 #17

All the BS sucked the oxygen out of the race loyalsister Mar 2020 #64

She deserved to win her home state question everything Mar 2020 #19

and I just switched to Warren after Amy dropped out 😥 Raine Mar 2020 #20

She's lost to everyone somewhere Renew Deal Mar 2020 #21

She got 3 votes in our California household kimbutgar Mar 2020 #23

She needs to suspend her campaign. It ain't gonna happen for her. stopbush Mar 2020 #24

I'm unbelievably pissed off. alarimer Mar 2020 #25

Apparently, few D voters agree with you. stopbush Mar 2020 #37

I supported Amy because I thought she was the best candidate. squirecam Mar 2020 #38

I love Amy...she made it possible for Biden to win Minnesota. Demsrule86 Mar 2020 #65

I support the person I think can win in November and defeat Mr. Trump. DarthDem Mar 2020 #52

Maybe it doesn't matter to you. alarimer Mar 2020 #53

Okay DarthDem Mar 2020 #68

I feel exactly the same budkin Mar 2020 #58

Well, she won my caucus in Iowa SharonClark Mar 2020 #26

She's so amazing. Going to be another "what if" presidency again. GreenPartyVoter Mar 2020 #27

I'm stunned and angry eissa Mar 2020 #28

She made a critical error in not going after Bernie squirecam Mar 2020 #39

+1 Kaleva Mar 2020 #41

Just an observation but Warren is just 9 points ahead of Bloomberg in MA Kaleva Mar 2020 #40

Bloom opened more offices in Mass than every other candidate combined. blm Mar 2020 #43

does that explain why Warren may come in 3rd in her home state? Kaleva Mar 2020 #47

Just explaining Bloom's numbers there. Mass is tough on its own. blm Mar 2020 #50

Ok. Bloomberg getting double digits in MA is probably 'cause of the great effort he put in there. Kaleva Mar 2020 #51

MA isn't exceptionally loyal to their own unless they look like winners Blaukraut Mar 2020 #57

Same. But still able to understand psychology of other voters blm Mar 2020 #59

I get it, too, but I'm still sad. Liz would be an amazing president. n/t Blaukraut Mar 2020 #60

Absolutely. She's a real anti-corruption warrior and a brilliant builder blm Mar 2020 #61

Yes, the ads must have worked. alarimer Mar 2020 #46

Well, she took constant hits from all sides when she was the front runner. blm Mar 2020 #29

I don't think that can be said enough Docreed2003 Mar 2020 #32

There was a significant change in Joe from that moment on. blm Mar 2020 #42

Indeed, it was relentless. As a Warren supporter, I am heartbroken with tonight's results. MerryBlooms Mar 2020 #48

yeah it's brutal d_b Mar 2020 #30

It flat out SUCKS budkin Mar 2020 #33

She needs to stay in the race until Milwaukee. DemocratSinceBirth Mar 2020 #34

I hope she does great things. She's amazing. nolabear Mar 2020 #35

Bernie was her albatross. Sparkly Mar 2020 #45

Yes. alarimer Mar 2020 #54

Well Joe can thank her for taking Mike out marlakay Mar 2020 #49

I don't think that mattered. Kaleva Mar 2020 #55

True that... Demsrule86 Mar 2020 #67

Warren deserves better support than she got in this race. BlueWI Mar 2020 #56

I agree. Sparkly Mar 2020 #63
