Radio Recap – Sleepy Joe Biden’s Campaign Awakens
Sleepy Joe Biden’s campaign wakes up. The big question is how long will it stay awake? Mayor Bloomberg has dropped out of the race, and we think Senator Warren will be next.
On today’s Jay Sekulow Live we discussed Vice-President Biden’s big Super Tuesday.
Well, it was certainly a good night for Sleepy Joe Biden. The campaign woke up. There will likely be an influx of resources from Mayor Michael Bloomberg now. Mayor Bloomberg had spent an unbelievable 5.1 million dollars on each Super Tuesday delegate he won.
After officially dropping out of the race, Mayor Bloomberg endorsed former Vice-President Biden.
pledged to keep his campaign apparatus, including his data and all field staff working, kind of like a Super PAC, for Vice-President Biden. That is something that Vice-President Biden’s campaign was missing. As many commentators will say, having that doesn’t guarantee you a win but when you couple that with Biden’s new momentum, it gives you better than a fighting chance now.
Vice-President Biden is now the delegate leader. He is leading Senator Sanders in states won and in actual delegates. That could tighten up as California results continue to come in.
Last night Mayor Bloomberg did not win a state, but he did win American Samoa.
Vice-President Biden won Alabama with Senator Sanders coming in second. Vice-President Biden won Virginia, with Senator Sanders coming in a distant second there. And Vice-President Biden also won Arkansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Texas, whereas Senator Sanders won the delegate rich state of California as well as Colorado, Utah, and of course his home state of Vermont.
Senator Warren didn’t win a single state and in fact, did not even come in second in her home state of Massachusetts. Senator Warren also came in fourth in Oklahoma which is where she’s originally from.
Don’t be surprised if she drops out soon. It would be absurd at this point for her to continue. I don’t care if she has resources or strong supporters telling her to stay in it, Senator Warren has no rationale to continue. If you cannot carry your own state as a sitting U.S. Senator, it is embarrassing.
Vice-President Biden may not have won this thing just yet, as there are still many states to go, but after Super Tuesday he is well on his way.
