Can you imagine, Joe didn't have one office in Virginia, never visited, had no ads up & look at his results!

Joe is leading with delegates, more to be distributed & California hasn't been included yet, probably take a week or so for all of their numbers to be tallied.

With all the monies spent, Bernie & Mike couldn't buy enough votes to make an argument that they are the best candidate.
And Yesterday was Bernie's best chance, next comes Florida, Georgia, etc. those states will NOT give Bernie the 'socialist' a win.

Joe proved they came out in greater numbers, to vote for him.
He won the Black voters, women in the suburbs, people over 45.
Bernie made NO gains with Black voters since his last bid.

Joe proved he is uniting the party, with the support of Pete, Amy, & Beto rallying around him.

Americans don't want a revolution, we want a normal, dependable, humane being.

Now, Mike needs to get behind Joe. Warren needs to dropout & support Joe.
And, yes, Bernie needs to accept the fact he doesn't have the numbers, and rally his supporters to get behind Joe.

There are only two candidates in it, for all the blather. And it looks like the socialist-progressive side is smaller than the centre left-moderate right one.

Sanders and Warren have done the work of John the Baptist. They are laying the path for a future candidate of the left. But the socialists and progressives won't win it this time.

Sanders, whose socialism is on the left wing of the party, stopped Warren, whose progressive positions were more electable with the whole party, from getting traction. Actually, when she trespassed into socialist territory with her healthcare ideas, she also ruined it herself. Sanders' supporters stayed with Sanders. But she lost the centre left.

I'd say her supporters go about equally to Sanders and Biden once she pulls out. Which means Sanders is doomed to a tranche of about 40%. And Biden snags the rest.

Or put another way, Sanders dooms the progressive agenda by setting out his stall in an unelectable part of the Democratic spectrum.
