So, what's the winning path for Amy, Biden, Pete and Warren?

[IluvPitties]

Frankly, Biden must win in South Carolina. He doesn't and he's done. However, I am struggling to see how anyone else can change the trajectory of this race. Pete seems to be losing steam, Warren seems to be struggling to catch on and Amy has had some rough days lately.

Sanders is, slowly but surely, picking up steam and running away with this. South Carolina can reverse his fate, but apart from that... I am struggling to see it...

1. I'll go with Bloomberg if Biden doesn't make it.

I'm choosing BLOOMBERG because we get Indies, Repub, racists, econ anxiety folks, old people, college educated. Bernie people won't matter.

2. At the convention!

Sanders =1/3 of the delegates....all others 2/3. It will be wide open and who is the best horse-trader.

3. The ONLY two candidates

That can get an actual majority is Biden or Sanders. That’s just fact.

But to deny Bernie a majority, Biden needs Amy to win Minnesota. He will win it if Amy drops out.

Otherwise Bernie gets a plurality, and it goes to the convention.

4. Don't struggle-it'll work out for Biden et al

I switched from Amy to Joe recently, tho I have always liked them both.

I still think Biden will beat Trump...Sanders no chance, we’ll get crushed.

5. If Biden gets a strong second tonight

then I will say Pete, Amy, Warren, and Steyer have to withdraw. I would even like to see Bloomberg go too. It needs to get down to two fast. Frankly, if Bernie is our nominee NC could wind up all GOP again and this time it would be with the most anti gay politician in ages as Governor. I would likely lose my job if he won.

6. If Amy quits then Sanders wins Minnesota.

That would be bad for Biden.

7. but if she stays in she could cost him other states.

We have only one shot here and it is Biden vs Bernie assuming Biden finished as well as he is showing with 12% in.

8. Amy and Pete have little AA support

They aren’t costing him SC or the other southern states. That is Steyer or Bloomberg.

Biden needs to get AA support and win the southern primaries. Then he needs the northern primaries split between 3 or more, to cut down Sanders delegates.

That’s his only path to get more delegates. Because even if Amy or Pete or Steyer dropped out, it’s not enough. Either they ALL go, which isn’t happening, or he needs to be strategic.

9. Amy++, Warren+++. I like them both.
