on Super Tuesday I mean?
***
Senator Warren took out Bloomberg in the Debate, tore out his living guts and used them to grease the treads of her tank. Thus immunizing the democratic party (for now) from the unappetizing prospect of a faithless plutocrat buying the nomination wholesale. Meanwhile, Senator Sanders, on the eve of the Massachusetts Primary went all out balls to the wall Bernie-Bro and held two "huge" rallies intent on humiliating Elizabeth Warren on her home turf.
And what the hell it worked....she came in third. And right now I can tell you the balance of PUMAs who still gather about her as acolytes do, are a displeased resentful lot with little love for the Senator from Vermont, he's gonna need to preach a lot of peace and make many many promises to reconcile himself to this crowd.
But I think in a larger sense, all Sanders and Warren did was collectively hold the bridle that Former VP Joe Biden might mount up and ride to Glory. I think Bernie would have been well served to stay out of the Commonwealth and cede the State to Warren, the better to deny a little momentum to Biden, but no, Sanders went for humiliation and went promptly off a cliff.
Insofar as Massachusetts is concerned, I suspect this was the vibe on Tuesday Night elsewhere as well, a shit ton of democrats went into the voting booths, looked over the field and said to themselves, I Didn't Sign Up for This...and promptly voted for Joe Biden.
The President (assuming he is paying attention in his allegedly drug addled state), Senator Sanders and many others had best beware that italicized emotion above, the voters clearly want an end to fear, uncertainty, grievance, special privileges for weirdos no one has ever heard of AND the tyranny of the wealthy. They thought Joe can do that, maybe not so much Bernie or even Elizabeth sad to say.
They aren't asking for much, just for all of this shit to stop.
That is the real takeaway from Super Tuesday, The Country is Screaming for Decent Sane Constitutional Leadership. They'll even vote for Joe Biden to get it.
