But I don't know if this will help Bernie. I don't think it will hurt him, but i don't think it will have much impact.

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

That's right. boomer_wv Oct 2019 #6

Agreed. sheshe2 Oct 2019 #52

I'm gonna go out on a limb and speculate that the other candidates must be jumping for joy... Tarheel_Dem Oct 2019 #11

Why? kcr Oct 2019 #32

Let's see how long before Elizabeth has to "pivot" on M4A, and get back to me. Tarheel_Dem Oct 2019 #33

Yeah, just look at how she's already wavering! kcr Oct 2019 #36

I prefaced my statement with the operative word "wait". You didn't "wait" to "get back to me". Tarheel_Dem Oct 2019 #37

I'm sorry to hear it. I cannot respect any political professional Hortensis Oct 2019 #13

Make sure you guys are loud and clear RandiFan1290 Oct 2019 #14

76% of Sanders' good Democratic supporters voted Democrat Hortensis Oct 2019 #15

And 25% of Clinton supporters voted for McCain over Obama in 2008. mtmirror Oct 2019 #23

Much the same people in those groups. Take a GOOD look Hortensis Oct 2019 #24

Ah, but there was a distinct difference radical noodle Oct 2019 #55

This. We all start with power, which can be turned against us Hortensis Oct 2019 #53

Aw. NurseJackie Oct 2019 #22

It must be motivated by sympathy and pity... that's the only thing that makes sense to me. NurseJackie Oct 2019 #16

I suppose that's why the rally on Saturday is being billed as "Bernie's Back". George II Oct 2019 #18

That exactly what I want to see... as he rides off into the sunset. NurseJackie Oct 2019 #21

Agree. (nt) ehrnst Oct 2019 #19

Ocasio waited, and I'm guessing it was to test her own winds. Hortensis Oct 2019 #20

I prefer Warren over Sanders, but still greatly admire AOC Tarc Oct 2019 #25

Useless endorsement n/t PhoenixDem Oct 2019 #26

Interesting you would say that True Dough Oct 2019 #27

Twitter is a world-wide communications outlet. George II Oct 2019 #30

Sure. You believe more than 20% of those followers are from outside the U.S.? True Dough Oct 2019 #35

Followers aren't necessarily an indication of popularity or true "following" of a person.... George II Oct 2019 #41

Wait... here... LMFTFY NurseJackie Oct 2019 #42

Translated, I (a mere private citizen) have 45 likes per follower, she has .003 likes per follower.. George II Oct 2019 #44

+2? Do they not have minds of their own? Chemisse Oct 2019 #28

It's actually +1, and why isn't it IO (Ilhan Omar) +1? George II Oct 2019 #54

Huge! The largest voting demographic is young. More motivation to vote! floppyboo Oct 2019 #29

The "young" demographic is historically the one with the lowest turnout. George II Oct 2019 #31

Ya. That was my point exactly. floppyboo Oct 2019 #34

% increase is a deceiving metric... If a demographic already has a huge turnout.... George II Oct 2019 #38

Yes, which means they have the greatest potential for more growth in turn out. floppyboo Oct 2019 #39
