Biden seems to be beating the big money--BS spent FORTY times as much as Biden in Texas!

This is amazing. Biden seems to be proving that money can't buy the Democratic Primary--and not just Bloomberg's money.

NPR reports Biden spent only about $89,000 in compared with more than $3.7 million that Sanders spent. That's right. Sanders spent over 4100% more than Biden.

Still, neither Sander's money nor Bloomberg's bought them first place.

3. That was Priceless!

This is one of the most amazing things about Biden's 180 from Feb 28th... how he wasn't spending money all over the place in the States he won tonight.

James Clyburn & GOTV in South Carolina.. Pete, Amy & Beto and all their Supporters!

5. I expect Joe's money woes to improve now that the field has narrowed & he has new momentum.

Unfortunately for Joe, many in my demographic just don't have the disposable income of some of his rivals' supporters. We're older, and this is the first election cycle in a long time, where I personally can't help as much as I'd like. That being said, it's very heartening to see that rallies & oodles of money aren't the only way to the voters hearts.

8. Embarrassing loss for Bernie.

"Money is bad" seems to be a central campaign theme for him, yet he's pulling in and spending LOADS of money with little to show for it.
