(11,105 posts)You may be right about Bernie's effect on the November election. But likewise, the people who are Bernie or busters today (especially the more reasonable ones among them) may become reluctant, or, more accurately, tacit in their uncompromising support for Bernie despite their faces. Their disaffection with Bernie can prove to be more persuasive than their far less likely sudden affinity for Biden.The more credibility Bernie loses with time, the more the likelihood of Bernie or Busters opening their eyes to the reality of the situation, especially in light of Trump running for the second term. I know, I am counting on people to be reasonable where their interests are at stake, which is never a good idea, but I am merely talking about likelihoods and probabilities. A clouded mind becomes less so when the all-powerful wizard behind the curtain reveals himself to be an ordinary con man from Omaha, Nebraska (or Burlington, Vermont).
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
