Way too many people worrying about the anti-Bernie consolidation today, and way too many people bitching about what the campaign failed to do after Nevada.
None of it matters.
If the Sanders campaign cannot turn out the vote for Bernie tomorrow in all the Super Tuesday states, he will lose the primary and would have lost to Trump.
This is the test, and it is the only test that matters. Turn out the votes and win big, or you are done.
Ace it or face it.
The exact numbers won't matter at this point, as it is all about narrative.
And that narrative absolutely needs to be: turnout, up; margins with Hispandex, up; AAs, up; every other demo, up. Show everyone that you are doing what you said you would do. This is your one and only test, cuz, frankly, you didn't really do well in Iowa, NH, or SC.
If Bernie cannot vanquish Biden, or a combination of Biden, The Snake, and Bloomberg, then the sad fact is that for all the wants and wishes and hard work and money, Bernie's people are never going to vote for him in sufficient numbers.
Beating an incumbent president is hard, even one as hated and gross and insane as Trump. If Bernie gets tripped up because a couple of vile neolib shitbags drop out of the race, he wasn't ever going to beat Trump.
Ace it or face it.
What Booty-gig and the Klobmonster did will have no effect on whether the Sanders campaign wins or loses.
The only thing that matters is if the Sanders campaign can get all those Bernie voters to actually vote.
Ace it or face it tomorrow.
