It's not like we have 95% of the country who haven't voted yet, right?

They better change their minds in the next couple of days or so, or else they run the risk of losing their reason to not stay with Biden!

My hubby says every one he knows throws the mailers away and people who say they vote as unions tell them are not correct.

We vote progressive, and if Warren gets out it will be Bernie like last time.

There is every reason to believe Pete and Amy will be gone after Super Tuesday. I’m not happy about that at all - but they are feeling the financial squeeze. As for Warren - if she is cancelling TV ads in Nevada and South Carolina - that’s very bad news.

Sad to say, but some very good people just don’t have the resources to carry on.
