2020 presidential nomination

Biden had some more terrible news at dawn yesterday, or whenever he woke up. His numbers in California have collapsed. California, the state with 494 delegates. The only states with hauls anywhere near California are New York (320), Texas (261), Florida (248), Pennsylvania (210) and Illinois (184).

In 2016 Trump did poorly in Utah, a state where his amorality-- and worse-- is not appreciated. He came in third in the Republican caucuses:

The transpartisan establishment-- classically conservative by it's very nature-- is freaking the hell out. Despite their best efforts, the damn working folks look like they're going to give Bernie the damn nomination to take on the sitting duck criminal of an illegitimate "president" in November.

CBS News released their new YouGov poll yesterday. There was a great deal of information but what I found the most important measured the enthusiasm level for the various candidates in Iowa. Remember, a caucus is not a primary. Caucus goers change their minds after arguments from their neighbors.

Democratic primary voters have been smelling Biden's bullshit and have been turning away-- some in disgust and some in disappointment. Like Trump, he's incapable of stopping himself from lying. Like he Trump, he lies about all things, great and small. He was one of the architects of the Iraq War and he lied over and over and over again, claiming he opposed it.

Amy Klobuchar by Nancy OhanianOver the weekend in New Hampshire, the Union Leader endorsed Amy Klobuchar for president. Good news? Well... maybe for her competitors. The Union Leader isn't just a Republican Party mouthpiece, it's one of the most notoriously conservative daily newspapers in the country.

The New York Times released the results of the new Siena poll of Iowa caucus goers yesterday under the slightly ominous headline Sanders Siezes Lead In Volatile Iowa Race.

The B-TeamLast Sunday, Jeff Greenfield, writing for Politico noted that if the Democrats nominate Status Quo Joe, they may be safe, but also sorry.

Tulchin Research is best known as the pollsters for the Blue Dogs but, that said, they don't skewer data the way Rasmussen does. Their new poll for California is certainly not a Blue Dog poll! Bernie, in fact, has overtaken Status Quo Joe.
