    You're really trying to make a desperately stupid argument there, and I have no idea why I'm even engaging you.

    Considering Bernie beat Hillary by a 3-1 margin, he's gotta be disappointed he only beat Pete by a few thousand votes.

    Well maybe you can get Corey Booker or kamala Harris back. Harris especially had more free media coverage than anyone and yet no one liked her. Why did she quit before a vote was cast?

    The President's performance on Twitter, while usually is embarrassing, is on another level tonight.

    Cusack is one of these assholes who thinks he's wise - and is anything but.

    A lot like Shortbus used to be.

    This argument is like the people who try to compare Babe Ruth with Mike Trout.

    You're comparing completely different scenarios. Sanders and Clinton were the only candidates in 2016. Of course Sanders got more votes then. I think there were a dozen or something on the ballot in Iowa and New Hampshire, including outsiders in Yang/Steyer who Sanders courted four years ago plus another progressive in Warren.

    Her campaign ran out of money. She definitely faded after that initial debate bounce, but she was polling around the same as others who are still in the race. She just ran out of cash. Word was the nuts and bolts of her campaign operation wasn't as strong as it should have been.

    I reject your premise. Buttigieg and Klobuchar are damn near neck-and-neck with Sanders. Both are moderates. Meanwhile, Warren was largely snubbed by the progressive voters of NH. It's damn near the equivalent of Hillary getting 45 percent of the vote in NH.

    If Warren pulled in 24 percent of that vote, I think you'd have a stronger stance. But they don't support her, either. A significant portion of NH voters not only don't support Sanders this time around, they don't support the progressive ideals he represents.

    If you don't think Bernie is disappointed tonight, you're not paying attention.
