Former MD Congressman John Delaney pulled the plug on his Presidential campaign. Delaney was the first Democrat to announce he was running back in 2017. Understatement of the year:

Re: Fire Up the Toaster - 2020 Political Edition
After giving it the old college try, the democrats latest gallant attempt to remove the duly elected President from office without charging him with any crime, except ones they made up, is now toast. As they are now saying, 'without any evidence', we are now a monarchy. Hail King Donald, first of his name. Protector of the realm. Flunkie of Russia. Father of Grand Dragons. The Wall Builder. Ruler of the 7 Emoluments.
The king thing probably won't stick, though. Except for those already 'in the tank'. It's just a holdover for the next 'corrupt scheme' they have in the queue.
Anyone want to speculate what's the next egg in the nest?

There was a time when the Republican party had morals and ethics. Go back and read Margaret Chase Smith's speech about Joe McCarthy. Contrast that with Susan Collins' ridiculous defense that Trump has "learned his lesson." Trump has learned a lesson. He's learned that no matter what he does, Susan Collins and Mitch McConnell and Lindsay Graham and the rest of them will fall in line. I'm pretty sure this last stunt will cost Susan Collins her job. I'm just wondering how many of the rest of them will pay the price for rubber stamping Trump.

Re: Fire Up the Toaster - 2020 Political Edition
I think that Warren and Klobuchar are staying in through Tuesday because the Massachusetts and Minnesota primaries are Tuesday. If they drop out, they hand those states to Bernie, while if they stay in they'll pretty much split the delegates with him. I'm expecting some announcements on Wednesday and possibly someone cutting a VP deal with Biden.Bob Juch wrote: ↑Sun Mar 01, 2020 5:32 pmPete's out:

Re: Fire Up the Toaster - 2020 Political Edition
Without having read any of the stories to see what his statement was, I'm intrigued that Mayor Pete withdrew two days before Super Tuesday.
If he knows he has no shot (because his lane is the same as Biden's), fine, then go on and get out and encourage your voters to go to one person in particular. Same with Steyer - I am wondering if he is encouraging his voters to go to anyone specific (and if he will be supporting any of them financially before there is a nominee).
Possibly all of this has been answered, and I just haven't had time to read the many stories we generated tonight. I had issues with one paper's sports pages in particular, and am just now catching my breath. As long as they are overbooking their papers, I feel like I have some job security.

Re: Fire Up the Toaster - 2020 Political Edition
Speaking of people who have no shot, does Bloomberg still seriously believe that he can buy the nomination after parachuting into the race only three months ago and completely shunning the first four contests? Or it more about trying to buy a few delegates so that he can have a platform at the convention?

While Buttigieg did not overtly state who he wants people to support, he was pretty clear in his message that he still wants to make sure that there are no "down ticket" impacts now that he will not be the nominee. In other words, Biden not Bernie.Ritterskoop wrote: ↑Sun Mar 01, 2020 8:49 pmWithout having read any of the stories to see what his statement was, I'm intrigued that Mayor Pete withdrew two days before Super Tuesday.

It is surprising when the person in 3rd place bows out before those in a more distant 4th, 5th, or 6th. No idea why Elizabeth Warren still is in the race, let alone Amy Klobuchar. (Altjhough of the remaining also-rans, it seems like Sen. Klobuchar is the one who is not still running as a vanity exercise.)
If I was to guess, I think that Buttigieg may have dropped out as a strategic move to again beat Sen. Klobuchar to the punch. They are the best (only) candidates to reach out to the states where Trump won the last election, via-a-vis "blue collar, midwestern values states", so Buttigieg makes for an interesting Veep candidate. Of course, Bernie is the one who most needs that help, and I am not sure that either Buttigieg or Klobuchar can be Veep with so many debate soundbites available.

Re: Fire Up the Toaster - 2020 Political Edition
As I noted earlier, in Klobuchar's case, it's probably due to the Minnesota primary Tuesday. She stands to get a possible majority of the delegates there, many of which would go to Sanders if she dropped out. Warren faces the same situation in Massachusetts, but, in her case, there's a very, very, very, slim possibility she might emerge as the "liberal" alternative to Sanders and siphon some votes away from him.Appa23 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 02, 2020 11:59 amIt is surprising when the person in 3rd place bows out before those in a more distant 4th, 5th, or 6th.

Nobody really knows at this point if Bloomberg will score significantly tomorrow or not. Tom Steyer spent a ton of money in South Carolina and wound up with two delegates. A similar showing by Bloomberg tomorrow and he pull out.
The latest analysis by FiveThirtyEight (after the Buttigieg dropout) shows a 65% chance of no one having a majority of pledged delegates at the convention, Sanders with 20% (down from the mid 40s a week ago), Sanders at 20% and Biden at 15%. As far as having a plurality of delegates is concerned, Sanders has a 57-41 % chance against Biden in that regard.

I can't see anyone in their right mind voting for Joe. Half the time, he doesn't know where or even who he is unless he is reading from a teleprompter, and even then he gets things wrong. He is way too old, bless his heart, and he should have bowed out long ago, but for the number of people with TDS willing to vote for a person suffering from senility (sorry, but it looks like it) over the guy who's doing the job.
