Pure speculation since we don't really know what these candidates' intentions and motivations are. I'm thinking Gillibrand and at least one of the newer candidates who most voters couldn't pick in a line-up Joe Sestak or Wayne Messam. Good time for de Blasio to get out, too. Tulsi is going to hang on for a while longer. Steyer isn't going anywhere because he can buy as much organization and exposure as he wants with his own dough.
Really it's anyone's guess. Ryan, Delaney, Bullock, and Bennet have to know they're wasting time and money.
