He now ranks just above what I call the disruptor candidate(s) and Gillibrand for me, and this is coming from someone that was hoping he would get the VP nod in 2016. I was turned off a bit by his attack on Beto in one of the earlier debates and his attack on Biden last night just pushed me over the edge. He's now a persona non grata to me.

Folks need to stop thinking about who they like, but rather who can beat trump. Too many folks are all about the "like" even though their candidate has no chance to win the Electoral College which is state by state. We have one chance to beat trump. We better not get it wrong.
