Maybe I'm just a big fat idiot but I lost most of my personal enthusiasm for the primary when Warren started spiraling downward and it pretty much killed my sense the country was actually moving leftward - if it were, then it actually would be a Bernie vs Warren election

I mean, the thing is, if it were actually true that "Americans want Bernie and Liz's policies and they just trust Bernie more to deliver them" then HE WOULD BE WINNING It would mean that every point Warren dropped would've been a point he picked up and he'd have the majority now

The fact that Warren's collapse didn't empower Sanders, whose numbers stayed stubbornly stable, so much as helping Buttigieg and Klobuchar on the way to helping Biden, tells me it was really about perception of competence and character not policy in the first place

(And if people react to this thinking "That just proves Lyin' Liz and her supporters were closet centrists this whole time", fine That doesn't change what I just said)

Frost is legitimately the worst, and that article was one of the worst pieces of professional public writing I've ever skimmed.

This is just not true. You are willfully letting a handful of loud people misrepresent the millions of us who don't give a fuck about Sanders himself, we just want someone to represent us in some vague way politically while Warren kept caving further right.

I'm sorry, when did Warren cave to the right? I must've missed it.
