Thanks for posting this. Interesting read.

There was an article in the UK press recently, about a Youtube ad made by a Sanders supporter which might help explain why people who watch corporate news are relatively less likely to be considering him:

Really interesting analysis, especially the breakdown of non-white voters by sex. Thanks for linking as it is just the sort of deep dive of data I love!

They’re all going hard after warren tonight. Biden looks spent. Booker is having a good night.

Biden jumbling his words bigtime at the moment

Sanders despite having a heart attack mere days ago looks snd sounds far brighter than Biden.

Harris going on a weird tangent demanding Warren agree with her that Trump should be banned from twitter wasn’t much more coherent.

Haha, Biden shouting at warren who goes on to thank Obama for his support.
I agree LL,Sanders showing no signs of poor health. He seems rejuvinated!

That Biden clip is going to get a lot of play



Think it has been Sanders best debate to date tbh, he still has a lot of energy but a little calmer than previously.

He's also got AOC who will be speaking at his rally in NYC tomorrow.
The only member of the squad who wont endorse him is Presley who, presumably, will go for Warren.

having had some time to think about the debate last night.
First off, they are an absolute mess. Booker was right to try and point out that the other candidates shouldnt be tearing strips off each other.
Loath to say it but Trump giving one or two of them a miss in 15 or 16 was actually smart.
How did Harris get hammered for going after Biden but there's barely a peep about Biden going after Warren.
And am I the only one who thinks Buttigeig came off poorly for being so aggressive. The media seem to think he did great.
And there's 8 bloody more to go!

Hoping for Warren win. Maybe she will make Sanders her running mate and eventually the VP, as long as his health allows it.
