Klobber, Pete, Harry Reid, and Tammy Duckworth all endorsing Biden. Biden back to being the favorite in this?
 
Warren needs to make a decision, staying in now just makes her look like she can't accept defeat, she's not going to help anyone by trying to get a few delegates to take to the convention. If it is a brokered convention she's already pissed off both sides so I don't see how she benefits, progressives don't trust her and moderates still think she's too far to the left. She refused to shake Bernie's hand again after the last debate so I'm not sure where her head is at but he was going to be her best shot at being on the ticket in November and she just brushed it off.

The handshake stuff is nonsense because they were seen having friendly chats during the breaks. I don't really buy the idea that he wouldn't put her on the ticket if he wants to because she didn't shake his hand once. You would have to think pretty little of him to believe that. Don't really know that she even wants to be VP either.

There is no way she thinks she would win in a brokered convention. Its far more likely she would be looking for the power that having those delegates would hold in terms forcing concessions that she wants. Most likely she drops in the next few days as the money is going to dry up.

This in addition to Tim Kaine (Hilary's VP Pick) and Terry McAulife (former VA Governor) both endorsing Biden for it.

I haven't seen it yet, but where did Amy endorse Biden? Or is that just expected at this point?

The story I saw with her dropping out had that, fwiw.

Oh I know she'd take the job if offered and I don't think he'd hold off on it because of the handshake either but I just don't know if the supporters for either candidate would be that happy with it now. Many of her supporters are on social media talking crap about Bernie all the time and many of his are doing the same thing to her so it'd be interesting to see how many of them do a quick 180 if this were to happen. Today there was a guest on that youtube show Rising that made a good point about her being an institutionalist and that Bernie isn't and how she doesn't want to sort of burn it all down the same way he does.

Well its not like their supporters would stay home if the team up so I don't think it matters much. At the end of the day he either picks someone that can help him win which isn't her or he picks someone that he can work with that he reasonably close to politically which she would be the best pick in that case.

Anyone that is 100% on board we with what he wants to do probably isn't qualified to be VP

That's good, you won't have room to eat their nasty fries lol.

They're good sometimes if you order them with no salt. Most of the time thought they're oversalted and hard so at least ordering them with no salt ups the chances they will be fresher.

I thought they didn’t make them any more, is that a sixteen patty?

I have no idea, I never knew they did that.

I'm going to chalk it up to the fact that I'm hungry and haven't had a burger in a long time, but that actually looks really good. I'd give it my best effort.

Lol, a bit too much cheese and it would be better if it were chedder.

I don't know the polling suggests a more even split than most would expect but if he gives Biden any kind of bump relative to Bernie than he is helping to keep that from happening. An even if the split was completely even it sill helps Biden be viable everywhere. Race would have been over for sure if Biden was under 15% in California.

At this point they are all just playing spoiler for Bernie or Biden and they should follow Pete's lead



He does need some kind of resume boost so unless he thinks Indiana will make him Senator or Governor he really does need Biden to win.

Yea with everyone seeming to endorse Biden he probably will, at least the centrists seem to be pushing Biden to win instead of Bloomberg.

Their fries always taste stale and soggy, I'd take fresh Wendy's or McDonalds fries over theirs any day of the week! especially if they let them get a little crispy with a that beautiful golden color around the edges, sadly that seems to be a rare sight these days lol.

Yea, there stale alot of the time these days. Fresh McDonalds are better but they are stale and hard a lot of times to nowadays, have to go to someplace like the Hat to get really good fries most of the rest aren't worth the calories.

I think most places only go to 4 patties, you could ask for them anyway you want them, they just won’t add fries in between, you gotta do that ykursel

you could always as for a fresh batch. Only once have I ever had a bad batch where some were under cooked, but it was a the one just outside of LAX. But yeah McDonald fries are the best, but ya gotta wat then quick before they go stale. five guys fries are pretty fire though. Followed by bakers and burger im fries.

McDonald’s fries from president!!!

*edit to add* dude, slaters 50/50 sweet potato fries with pumpkin sauce are heaven

Should we be working on some kind of Plan B?

We are, plan Bernie :)

I really hope people don't jump to Bloomberg, he just doesn't have the charisma to beat Trump, almost everyone I know that's seen him in anything other than a commercial says he comes across like a jerk.

Bernie is still my plan B for Warren, but as that ship is about to run aground most likely before our primary...

I can tolerate Biden but I'm also tired of seeing Republicans win and push all their fringe's bulls*** and then a moderate Dem tries to work with them. Still, if it's not a real progressive, a moderate like Biden would still be an improvement over a DINO who bought his way in.

I don't think there is much to worry about on that one. Its going to be Bernie or Biden unless they both die.

Bernie needs to expand his messaging and not just start to repeat all his 2016 crap. It can't just be establishment establishment establishment right now. No they aren't scared that you have all the working class voters. I'm pretty South Carolina has them too.
 
Betto is alive! Safe to say, one of the three endorsers from yesterday will be his VP pic. I'm choosing Betto. If Biden can fake he's not old in the mind and wins the nomination, incredible he's the youngest candidate in the race now, he'll give Bernie a run. He would have to make his VP pick soon though. If Bernie destroys him today, it's basically over.
 
Nice line at my poll this morning, started to grow as I was leaving. Was personally out in and out in about five minutes.

Dropped a vote for Bernie, and convinced tumorwoman to as well.

Interestingly enough, literally every candidate (save Beto I think?) was on the ballot. I hope people are paying attention to who is in the race still, because you're gonna see a lot of votes for people who aren't even in the running anymore. Hell, Marianne Williamson was still on the ballot.

I think he picks Kamala Harris. Maybe Duckworth.

Picking a VP as soon as he entered the race could have been interesting but he can't do it now. It will just be seen as desperate like when Ted Cruz did it.

Trump has Trumpisma. A newer mutated strain of Charisma.

This is unlike people such as Obama who had true Charisma. Trump is a mix of Gameshow host and Wrestlemania.

The notorious RBG said it best when she said that Ameirca is a like pendulum. The further right the pendulum swings, the further left it will swing back.
 
This is why everyone needs to become a single issue voter this fall - the issue is removing Trump.

This country will not survive another 4 years of Trump. It isn't certain we can even recover from what he's done.

These Trump crazies are becoming more and more noticeable. He's waged a war on the truth for so long now, and he's starting to win.
