(Bloomberg) -- Bernie Sanders has not only taken the lead in several recent surveys of voters in Iowa, which holds the first in the nation caucuses on Monday, but he has also pushed to the head of the Democratic field in delegate-rich California.
The Vermont senator, who has had strong support from Latinos and young voters, has been propelled into the top spot by voters who self-identify as “very liberal,” according to the latest UC Berkeley Institute for Governmental Studies poll, conducted for the Los Angeles Times.
Sanders has support from 26% of voters likely to cast ballots in the state’s March 3 Democratic primary, drawing support from liberals largely at the expense of Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren. Warren is now backed by 20% of likely voters, which is down from earlier surveys showing she had 22% in November and 29% in September in the state.

WNU Editor: It looks like he has the momentum. But the Democrat leadership is moving to stop him .... Sanders allies in new uproar over DNC convention appointments (The Hill). It is almost as if the leadership have conceded that they are going to have a brokered convention when Democrats meet to choose their Presidential candidate, and they are now laying the groundwork to make sure that Bernie Sanders is not going to the one who is going to be on top.

Update #2: The Democrat "civil war" continues .... Hillary Clinton admits she feels the 'urge' to run against Trump and says she would win - as she doubles down on Bernie criticism, imploring voters to examine his record (Daily Mail).
It was obvious during the last election nomination run-up that the DNC did not want Bernie and managed to push him out. The lack of candidates opposing Clinton was an obvious indication of that slant. Warren as she did then is working to ensure Sanders is not selected and likely will throw her support to Biden with Bernie bowing out as he so reluctantly did last time. Another bow another house perhaps.
ReplyDeleteIt is all a crap shoot anyway as no matter who gets in and even if that person, especially if it is Bernie, should become President the wealthy will still rule. Bernie has no congressional support.

ReplyDeleteHow much of a socialist can Bernie be, if he can be bought so easily per 'lil baby bob?
ReplyDeleteI guess one average house with a sub-par mattress or a stubbed toe is to much effort or risk to ask of a great revolutionary like Bernie.
Neither Bernie nor his sidekick AOC are that bright. AOC is terrified of garbage disposals. She has led a very sheltered life.

Snopes rated the story as true. LOL!
But Bob got her licks in. While implicitly rooting for Bernie "The Great White Hope of the Revolution", she got her obligatory dig ion at the US as a whole "It is all a crap shoot anyway ..."
I think bob's education was as modest as Bernie's carpentry skills, which is why she loves socialism. Al lot of needs, but not a lot of skill.
nice try. with trump alienating all our allies and befriending our foes and no health plan and no infrastructure plan and deficit skyrocketing,
ReplyDeletebernie or any other candidate looks good
List allies Trump has alienated?

Justin Trudeau is a joke. The Canadian armed forces are far less effective than the German armed forces.
Macron was the empty suit pushed by the establishment in tandem with them stealing an election. Macron laughed at Prime Minster BlackFaces' joke, but now is p[leading for help from Trump in Africa.
Japan' Abe like Trumps.
The former PM of Italy like Trump. The current one is a socialist running dog that will be voted out inside of 2 years.
The ineffectual Theresa May is gone. You think Boris like Obama better or Trump.
You assert this statement ,m but do not prove it like a goods libtard.
" ... alienating all our allies ... "
Congrats. You have been well trained to be the moron that you are.

ReplyDeleteInteresting response and something that explains why you couldn't properly answer the question, "what do they call Chinese food in China?"
A bit more for you to chew on.
Give Anon some fish and you will let him eat for a day.
Teach Anon to fish and he will be able to feed himself for the rest of his life.
Build a fire for Anon and you will keep him warm for a night.
Set Anon on fire and you will keep him warm for the rest of his life.
First, you were wrong about the Chinese food question.
ReplyDeleteSecond, you have used your implied threat about fire before.
Third, visit the casino some more and mix.
You are unable to answer the question correctly, eh?
ReplyDeleteCan you even define what it means to be Chinese? In the Han, Tang, or Ming dynasty some scholars or other notables discussed it. I forget which dynasty. Anyway, I looked it up and I was right. You shall remain benighted.
ReplyDeleteOn a similar note other than you may pay Canadian taxes, have a Canadian passport or physical squat your ass in Canada, there is nothing to prove you are Canadian.
Okay so it is true you can't figure out that one, eh? Can you answer the question about calling a bald guy curly?
ReplyDeleteDid you know there were no Chinese until they came to California?
ReplyDeleteNo, such things are beyond your ken.
Still unable to communicate I see.
ReplyDeleteDid you know that a particular type of birthmark appears on the butts of Mexican and Chinese males when they reach puberty?
