This sounds like blackmail. I don't pretend to know for sure, but that's the look.

And just like that ... Buttgigger's nickname was retired.

Yeah, this has yet to play out, someone was bought... and I bet it wasn't cheap.

I'm surprised as well. Did they see something that bad in South Carolina (which Biden had in the bag for a long time) to think they didn't stand a chance? I mean, the guy was doing well in the delegate count.

Right on the mark,  something. Hard to tell what.

Looks like we're going to have a Bernie Biden showdown. IF Buttgig's delegates go to Biden that puts him ahead of Bernie and if he does well on Super Tuesday, perhaps bye-bye Bernie making Biden the nominee.  That would make it difficult for the DOJ to go after him for Burisma and China.  The DEMS may be insulating Biden and everyone who's benefiting from his corruption.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Minnesota voters need to decide if this is a sports game (cheer for the home team) or the most important primary election in a generation.

Makes sense, Richard Painter above, may have worked in some Republican administration in the past; but he sure seems liberal. Big NT.

Is this really today? It does make sense, she might take away Bernie votes in MN.

So, we will see.  It's probably not too early to set up a Super Tuesday thread, a lot of articles on it.

Not sure.  Given his boat load of negatives and Bidens negatives, not really a good team.
I would think someone like schiff for vp.. bigger name recognition, more national experience,  but young enough to take over the reins when/if biden is no longer able to perform.

Bernie won't drop out. In 2016 the Pantsuit Assassin had it wrapped up with a bow on top the moment she entered the race an' he still fought right up to the end. He's like that drunk who doesn't get the clue that the party is over an' it's time to go home an' sleep it off.

I don't see Butti being anyone's VP.  He has a unique ability to suppress the minority vote.

Pete "could" be a good VP pick.

What I see wrong with that ticket, is it would be two white guys. I'm not sure if the Democrats could sell that,  they, ideally probably want a person of color OR a woman.   But it could happen nonetheless.  I'd see him in a cabinet position and doing this for the team.

I just saw a purported picture of Pete have breakfast with former president Carter today. So, that was a bit interesting, I already lost it though.

Who's next to drop?

- Former Vice President Joe Biden
- Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg
- Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii
- Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota
- Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont
- Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts

Perez is on the phone right now threatening the political futures of Gabbard, Klobuchar & Warren. Bloomberg won't quit until he gets tired of throwing his money away.

Meanwhile the brains at the DNC are trying to figure out a way to slip a few CCs of Lidocaine into Bernie's cafe cubano.

I think Mayor Pete's in it for the money, and is sitting on a pile of cash raised in 2019.  He sees rapidly diminishing returns on the cash from here on out, so he's dropping out and keeping the money he raised for a future election, possibly a Federal office. 

After the 2008 loss to O'Bastard, McStain had a large war chest of unspent money that he was allowed to keep and use for his Senate reelection bids.

Warren has done everything but self-declare herself Sanders VP choice.
She is no longer running for President. She is running to be on the Sanders ticket.
That's why she kisses his butt every time she is near him.

Biden needs a bonafide woman, not one who wants to be a wife.

He needs the female vote and his many fondling photos will come out in general.
