in, what is the beef? Like I have said previously and to state the obvious maybe Joe should have started his campaign engine a little earllier if he wanted to be further along at this moment in time. And I don't think as you do, that the BS tweet you have reposted implies an equivalency between Dems and Republicans. It merely puts both Repubicans and Centrist Establishment Dems on notice that he is in it till the end, as is his right and as he has plainly telegraphed since day one. On edit -- so much for the "big tent" tradition of the party and this site as well.

And to use a boxing analogy -- if you want to beat the champ, you've got to knock him out. With the fundraising records he has set and the mammoth ground game he has achieved over the last seven years, Bernie, in this analogy is obviously the "champ". Joe, being hte challenger, may be ahead big time on points but until he delivers the KO punch, the contest goes on. Bernie and his supporters are in it to the convention, after which, Bernie will support the nominee, as he has said he would, whoever that may be. What is so shocking about that? And did he ever imply anything else would be the case? I just don't get it. I don't get the thousand of posts attacking him and his supporters. They have been run off this site.

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