Elizabeth Warren and Her Fans Reject Two-Man Race on Super Tuesday

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

MONTEREY PARK, California—The pundits are saying it’s a two-man race. But one woman isn’t ready to throw in the towel.

As the sun set on the not-quite-packed quad at East Los Angeles College, a few thousand Elizabeth Warren supporters gathered to hear the last remaining major female candidate in the race—and the youngest contender at just 70 years old!—make her final pitch before Super Tuesday.

Two days ago, former Vice President Joe Biden cemented his role as the main challenger to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) with a decisive victory in South Carolina. In the 48 hours since, Tom Steyer, former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg, and Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) have all dropped out, with the latter two formally endorsing Biden at a competing rally in Dallas, Texas. Former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg and his billions of dollars can stay in the race as long as they please, but even his campaign seems to be seeing the writing on the wall.

So where does that leave Warren?

Going into Super Tuesday, Warren has just eight pledged delegates, putting her in a distant third place behind Sanders and Biden (if you discount Buttigieg). According to FiveThirtyEight’s projections, she will mostly likely drop to fourth place overall, behind Bloomberg, after Super Tuesday with Sanders and Biden nearly tied far out in the lead.

1. One never knows ...

The polls have been so volatile that day to day or even week to week predictions are misleading and useless. And heck, either Bernie or Joe—or both—could contract COVID-19 after shaking hands on the campaign trail. Let's not forget the tragedy of RFK, or the untimely plane crash of Paul Wellstone. I hope nothing like that ever happens again. I'm just saying that life is unpredictable.

Right now, it would seem that Warren has no path to the nomination. And that is probably correct. But who knows.

3. I got a text from the Warree team yesterday asking who

I was "thinking" about supporting. I replied "We're going with the Wingman, VP Biden.

4. Can't blame her or them.

Three days ago, the race, to many, appeared to be over.

It would take an even more remarkable shift for Warren to come back, but the speed with which Biden did was shocking, so I'm not in any hurry to rule anything out.

5. It is a little unsettling,

here we are the progressive party of diversity and youth, and we have two quite old white men leading our charge.

6. Amen

She should hang on and hang in, I'm with her.

8. That's an entirely ridiculous statement. There was plenty of youth and diversity but they largely

misfired. The only one who made a name, was Pete, and it is fair to say he took huge advantage, from where he started, and as Joe said, he will be around for decades to come.

All the others screwed up themselves, or just didn't have IT, this time.

9. Right.
