How Sanders Hopes to Knock Warren Out of the Race

[RandySF]

Vice: “Warren has spent the past days chasing frantically across the country in a desperate search for Super Tuesday delegates. But her biggest problem might be back at home. Warren faces the real risk of losing Massachusetts to Sanders, a blow that could knock her out of the race. And as Warren raced from South Carolina to Alabama to Texas, Sanders dropped into her home state this weekend to try to seal her fate.”

“Three separate polls released in recent days show he’s right. Sanders, from neighboring Vermont, has inched ahead of Warren in her home state, buoyed by his strong showing in the early states and Warren’s failure to finish higher than third place in any of them.”

“A home-state loss would be devastating to Warren. It’s hard to see how she would continue after Super Tuesday at that point, especially since Massachusetts shapes up as by far her best chance of winning a Super Tuesday state.”

1. Bern is 30y of talk and no results. Warren is competence, action, and Results

Progressives should prefer real progress over.......speeches.

2. One would hope, but here we are.

It blows my mind that Liz isn't kicking Bernie's butt. She is better in every way, IMO.

6. Is it true that Warren is getting less cable tv time?

I've read a few tales of this, but can't find any numbers. It wouldn't surprise me if she was being overlooked by the tv.

3. Sanders recognizes that Warren is competing for votes with him

Their support doesn't completely overlap, but Sanders would probably get about half of her supporters. But it's true that the Sanders' campaign would like her out, and if they can get that it would help their chances in getting a plurality of delegates. Losing Massachusetts would become a narrative, no doubt. I hope she is able to "win" there.

5. Why isn't Warren winning easily in her home state? I would love to see her as our next President.
