If they were 50 years younger, this could have been a worldstar like moment, secret service with the black escalades and limos blocking off Pennsylvania so Trump and Bloomberg could run the head up.

Bloomberg's ads 
Mark Penn thought the primaries were winner take all
. Losing the south doesn't help and Hillary lost to Obama while winning states like Texas, MA, NY, CA,OH and PA but the margins were not as big as the Obama victories. There was an article posted last night that Sanders team thought Harris, Booker et al will split the black vote and he would coast to victory that way. I think reaching out means working within the party something that is the opposite of his plank, he could have worked with some progressive lawmakers like Sherrod Brown and former lawmakers like Feingold as they will make a different argument than the outsider. Obama also did that very well, for all the nostalgia about him he managed to get insiders working with him as the campaign went on, he got a bunch of them to break with the Clintons

Fam, he mixed up his wife and sister last night.
Bloomberg said, "that was my pocket money... I'm about to go in my BAG"
We talk about this already?

Liberal voters in recent history have been the smartest dummies in politics. We constantly make fun of conservative voters for their belief in conspiracies and intelligence but they are at the very least smart enough to vote with the party.
If you hadn't been paying attention to politics at all until yesterday, I don't know if you cold recognize democrat from republican the way the people who belong to the same party are attacking each other.
Bernie still has a slim chance because he can pickup the vast majority of CA delegates but he has not done much to gain ground in the places he got beat in during 2016, a lot of those places are coming up next. Biden is pretty much the nominee after yesterday's performance. Definitely wasn't my preference but I'm going to vote with the party because thats my best shot of having my interest represented in the upcoming election and administration.
So many people think they're punishing anyone other than themselves by being a pedestrian to the process. You can't get mad at D's because your candidate wasn't selected, sit at home and pout on election day effectively helping the other side and then get mad again during mid-terms and the next election cycle when the party has to fight for a seat at the table when in reality if you had of just voted with the party, they'd be fighting for something useful instead.

We've known for years Biden is prone to mush mouth. Honestly, I think his issue seems to be more of a speech thing, like his mouth not keeping up with his mind, not necessarily that he's truly feeble/senile.
Because they switched sides.

General elections =/= primarys
They can coalesce liberal media echo chambers and suppress disadvantageous stories when they dont have to compete against the fox news propaganda machine. They can coordinate with advantageous intra party moves in the primary that they cant in the general (spoiler candidates, timed dropouts, cabinet position promises).
This is all obvious. With such a staunch defense of establishment dems, you'd think they had a winning record against incumbent Republican Presidents or something.

Good for him. If has the change who he is, then it's not worth it.

i'm not saying have a conversation about black problems, i'm saying explain why you're platform helps them. yall keep conflating points (or posters, i'm not on the run a black agenda or bust train). bernie takes painstaking measures to explain how his platform lifts up working class people, you can do the same with black people. here's why my overarching GND helps your community - it gets rid of issue xyz that disproportionately is found in your community, etc. not create a specific plan for issue x in black community
