24 hours before Super Tuesday, Biden was a career primary loser who had been losing at Presidential campaigns since 1988. Then, in a perfectly coordinated, last-ditch effort, everybody dropped out and endorsed Biden*, impossibly reviving his dead campaign. That wasn't "voters"

Biden was going to be the candidate this time, come hell or high water.

*timing it just right in the news cycle!

One of Pete Buttigieg's staff members tweeted, then hastily deleted, the allegation that first the DNC asked Pete to drop out and endorse Biden, and when he said no, the DNC yanked all his funding to force him to.

That's my fault, I think. Some time back I called him a commie and he latched on to it like a tick on a dog. Nowadays, if it doesn't fit into his idea of [i]moderate/i] then it's communist.

Livin' in a state of perpetual hysteria makes a man gibberish-prone.

Or a state of perpetual offense-taking, and being hard done by at least in the abstract.

Apart from psychology (no thing is worthy, all is hated) all this guy's problems are First World problems. Yeah, he's still on Ignore. With sufficient Ignore, he'll only be able to talk into his own navel.

He's never testified to actually being *for* anything. I'd like him to show me I'm wrong there, but he is insusceptible to suggestion.
