    In terms of understanding Warren erasure, ground zero was the Iowa fiasco (spiking the DMR poll & results being delayed for days). There has to be a reckoning with that.

        yet another instance where she would've been much better served to align with Bernie instead of centrists.

        At this moment Warren is in third place by delegate count. So if you are talking about actual votes that have happened, she should be in the discussion. Not to mention that the only two states that have voted aren’t remotely representative samples of the D electorate.

        Are you saying that the "erasure" is due to the media focus on the DMR poll and the Iowa disaster?

        But a third place finish in the Iowa caucus with its white and highly educated participants was not really a great result for her anyway, so I don't think getting the results immediately would have changed much.

        How gullible are you? There’s been no erasure of Warren. She got nothing but glowing mentions. She was ahead. She got more time to talk than anyone else in the early debates. I don’t hear anyone asking about her medical records or her supporters.

        After she earned third behind almost deadlocked Pete and Bernie they talked about those two and Biden. When Biden placed 5th in NH they played his speech and skipped hers. She released more medical records than the field and the rest have doctors letters.

        They will settle for a long read postmortem instead.

        There is an easier answer. Media has bought into the "lanes" concept. Warren & Bernie in one lane and others in another lane. After Iowa it was clear Bernie was winning the Progressive lane. But Moderate lane was wide open with Biden fading. So talked about Pete & Amy.

        NBC left her entirely off of a national head to head vs Trump pole but included Bloomberg, Butiegig, Klobuchar, and Biden. She outpolls nationally at least two of them and has more delegates than three. They only include one person in the leftist lane but all of the moderates?
