The Dem Nomination race is not over but it looks like Biden has the backing of the DNC and we won’t have to pick between Revolution or Capitalism.  

 

Now let’ts see if Biden can survive a Ukrainian Investigation into Hunter’s activities.  Now that would throw a monkey wrench into the entire process and it might open the door for a brokered Dem Convention.  

 

Ukraine has opened an investigation into Senior Bidens influence over the firing of the prosecutor in the Burisma case.....Joe is under investigation......

 

This could easily blow up on the DNC.......we'll see?

I'm old enough to remember Dems questioned Trump's mental competence & wanted to use the 25th A to remove him... now suddenly don't have any concerns about Biden's obvious dementia. Joe don't know what state he's in, what office he's running for & who his wife is #RiggedPrimary

Uh-oh one the serial negmeisters showed up to spoil the debate.....don't be afraid, step into the light and speak....I don't bite.

Biden’s a criminal! He’s an un convicted felon. This punk will be held accountable! He said in Dallas that he was appointing beetow gun confiscation czar! Well that’s great ! My property is posted by Texas State law! I dare that punk to set one foot on my property! I’ll show him what happens to cattle thieves in Texas! So bring it on DemoRats!🤠 JMHO

Pretty ballsy of the DNC to put all their eggs in the Biden basket that's sure to implode in scandal, don't you think?

 

Idk, it seems the DNC went all in to stop Sanders.  Big win for the DNC yesterday.  Biden is like McCain in 08, old Senator giving it one more shot.  The biggest problem for the DNC will be getting Sanders backers to vote. They are not going to support Biden.  It would not surprise me to see Sanders start his own party to stick it to the Dems if he gets the votes but not the nomination.  

 

How about a Biden/Sanders ticket.  Something for every Dem.

As a conservative Christian, supporting the Republican party and thus supporting their leader by default......Do you really want to go down that wife trail concerning Biden?

I still say a minority female running mate, such as Stacey Abrams is the way to go....The minority voters on the Left is a pretty powerful voice...toss in the disenfranchised women of the suburbs and it could be a very competitive presidential election.  As always, just my opinion.

I don’t think the republicans are getting their message across to them in the right way! Most Hispanics I know are pro family guns, small businesses , property rights and secure boarder! Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick knows how to convey those positions to them in the proper way, that they understand where the conservatives position is! JMHO 🤠

Biden's odds surge on after big Super Tuesday wins, but Trump still favored in November

Joe Biden’s decisive Super Tuesday victories have catapulted him from also-ran to the prohibitive favorite to win the Democratic presidential nomination, with predictive markets — and Wall Street — betting on the former vice president to prevail in his effort to outflank Bernie Sanders.

After a blowout win in South Carolina over the weekend, Biden’s momentum carried him to a string of impressive wins on Tuesday’s primary contests. While he lost California, the ex-Senator and VP racked up a string of shutouts across the South — including Texas.

In fact, traders attributed Wall Street’s rally on Wednesday in part to investors breathing a sigh of relief that Sanders fortunes appear to be waning. Real Clear Politics and Smarkets forecast his chances of winning the Democratic nomination at well over 60%, while U.K. betting site Paddy Politics implies a nearly 78% chance Biden will face President Donald Trump in November.

With former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg, Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar and former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg all dropping out and coalescing behind Biden’s candidacy, he appears poised to consolidate support among centrist Democrats. Oddsmakers now favor a primary contest that pits the more moderate Biden against the Vermont Senator.

“A tense night followed for the other candidates as it soon became clear this was a Sanders vs. Biden contest,” said Sarbjit Bakhshi, Smarkets head of political markets, on Wednesday. 

“Biden winning Texas cemented an unbelievable resurgence, which started back in South Carolina and has continued until now - leaving him the firm favorite,” Bakhshi added.

Stocks rally — but Trump still favored

Tuesday’s victories represented a sharp reversal of fortune for Biden, who was all but written off just a week ago as Sanders — a self-described Democratic socialist whose aggressive tax-and-spend platform has unsettled Wall Street — surged in national polls.

Just last week, Smarkets and Paddy Power both had Biden’s chances languishing at the low end of the shrinking primary field. On Wednesday, the former VP surged on both platforms — and helped feed a rally in key Dow (^DJI) components.

Health insurance stocks like UnitedHealth (UNH), Pfizer (PFE) and Walgreens-Boots Alliance (WBA) spiked on expectations that Biden’s less government-centric plan won’t radically reshape the sector. Sanders has embraced a Medicare-for-All, which in theory would nationalize most — if not all — of health care.

“Health care can be a little bit more volatile as this political season plays out with the ebb and flow” of which candidate is considered the frontrunner, TD Ameritrade strategist Shawn Cruz told Yahoo Finance on Wednesday.

“I think that will intensify as we get closer to the general election, especially if its looking like a little bit of a toss-up of who’s going to win,” he told “On the Move.”

Regardless, both Smarkets and Paddy Power investors expect Trump to prevail over both Sanders or Biden — with the widening coronavirus outbreak not yet denting the president’s fortunes. Trump has a nearly 62% chance to win in November, according to Paddy Power, with Biden seen having a probability of over 36%.

In fact, Price told Yahoo Finance that one Paddy Power investor has placed a bet worth $210,000 (£165,000) on Trump’s victory — the site’s largest election bet to date.

The site’s bet on Trump dovetails with a recent investor survey by Deutsche Bank showing a whopping 95% of market participants believing that the president would win a second term. Over 60% of those respondents said it was “very likely,” according to the bank.

“Nearly 7 months from the election, it looks like [Trump] should be in good shape” based on historical metrics of unemployment and economic growth, Deutsche said — barring a “large shock” from the COVID-19 outbreak, which may yet happen.

It appears Americans and African-Americans especially  have chosen Biden.....

 

I ( obviously an alien to voting ) am  personally extremely saddened by this turnout ....Which  I realize...had to be expected somehow......Fear still aligns in many US folks when it comes to Bernie....Fact...Ok....
