It is really Biden or Sanders now

And the only question is, who has the better chance to beat Trump.
I wish it was about policy too but its not.

I do not know the answer. It's what most Dem voters are trying to figure out.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

the nice guy vs the kind of nasty guy. As was on display in the contrast between the two candidates’ speeches tonight.

Sorry, that’s how I see it. Character counts more than policy details in my book, because policies need to be enacted in Congress, and Democrats in Congress aren’t quite so amenable to belligerence as Republicans are.

But there is going to be huge Election Day chaos and there must be an overwhelming flood of votes for the Democratic Party from top to bottom, that no cheating can deny.
If we don’t get there, no blue sky, utopian plans will mater.

I don't know if Warren helps more by staying in or suspending. Somebody is gaming it out, though.
