(Never mind Tulsi Gabbard) It's time for my prediction of the outcome for the rest of the primaries:
60/40 Biden/Sanders + or - 5%
I predict that Joe Biden will go to the convention with a majority of pledged delegates.

(25,428 posts)In light of the huge lead in Florida, if we're going to blunt the nonsense that is undoubtedly coming should Biden win the nomination, it would be helpful for his win to be emphatic.
If the win is a clear majority and there is no doubt Biden is the winner, I think people will be less likely to take the kind of silliness that happened in 2016 seriously. That's not to say that it won't happen. I just think most people will have little or no tolerance for it.

(25,183 posts)provisionally. Joe Biden had a great debate performance in the SC debate, most of his previous ones have been lackluster, at best. If he has really shifted his game, and can keep up the performance he's shown that he can deliver, he will wrap this thing up by the convention.
However, if he makes an-as-yet-to-be-determined number of gaffes, then I don't know how it's all going to shake out. Bernie does a good job of staying on message, even if it is the same message over and over.

(2,706 posts)Biden will have a lead after that which will be hard to catch.
And after that still comes Florida and Georgia.

(25,183 posts)looking like the calendar favors Joe Biden at this point. However, we have the new wrinkle of Warren being out, we still need to see where her supporters are going.
