Warren’s epic flop in New Hampshire leaves her no path to the Democratic nomination

Elizabeth Warren admitted defeat in New Hampshire Tuesday night. She claimed to be still plotting a path forward for her presidential campaign, but, at this point, it has nowhere left to go.

With results still coming in, MSNBC has projected that Warren will come out of the primary with zero delegates. At best, she'll be in a distant fourth, well behind Bernie Sanders, Pete Buttigieg, and Amy Klobuchar. This was a disastrous night for Warren on top of an already lackluster showing in Iowa last week.

Yes it is - America must know what the Democrats are selling here - most will be offended - as they should be

The big winner on five thirty eight was no one, who is closing in on Sanders. (What is being tracked is odds of gaining a majority by June 6).

Good one, SERKIT. Sad to see Ms. Fauxcahontas do so poorly last night.

For the life of me, I can't figure out what's wrong. Time and time again she's proven that she can connect with voters.

• She can drink an "ice cold beer" with her husband.

• She can pump her fist in the air, just like a Patriot fan.

She's what you call a "natural".

that's funny-the question becomes if she will drop out or if she thinks staying in gets her something e.g. state campaign workers for next time, VP -and/or if she resents Sanders enough for sabotaging her campaign that she doesn't get out cuz she knows that will ensure Sanders gets the nomination

I’m only 42 but I know it, lol. I watch mostly reruns these days. I love old TV shows!

[Eleutheria5]

No such luck. She’s still a Senator. Which means she still need not work for a living.

[cgbg]

She needs to make sure that black voters don’t like being lectured to by affirmative action schoolteachers with fake minority credentials—then she can drop out...

I hope she keeps in the race longer......keeps her out of DC

Can’t vote Nay to judicial nominees if you ain’t in the chamber.

“Well, if she doesn’t want to learn to code”

I thought she was a WW2 Navajo Code talker?

I was just out in Vegas.....Steyer owns the town with billboards, ads and videos everywhere.

Warren is finished. She may not make to Super Tuesday if she has bad showings in SC & NV

Biden is a dead man walking. The momentum is all with Buttigieg and Sanders.

Klobuchar may have been a blip in NH. We will see how she does in SC & NV.

[Colofornian]

No, less than 5%...Remember, it’s only a primary

Odd that Slow Joe is not mentioned in this article . . .

From the article:

"Joe Biden also flopped in the first two primary states, but he has South Carolina to look to. Even if his chances of a comeback are fading, at least he can argue that his strategy hasn't had a chance to play out again."

LOL

[GOPJ]

Her lie about Bernie was a bridge too far...

Wow! I did not see this happening to the fake injun. Things are certainly changing quickly and I can’t pop the popcorn fast enough to keep up!

[doosee]

Steyer is really making the SC TV stations happy. He has his boring ads on over and over. Every ad is stacked with black folk saying how much they like this white rich dude. Pretty funny. Oh, and he earned all his money honestly. Flipping companies as a hedge fund greedy mother.

After Warren won her election to the US Senate, the media were touting her as the replacement of Hillary as the leader of the democrat party. As it turns out, she's even less likable than Hillary.

I take great joy in seeing the democrats in-fighting for the presidency. It forces them to have to be at least as little more honest about their ideas.

It was fun to watch candidate Donald Trump win every debate in 2016, and specifically challenge the perceived leaders each time. We'd watch and wonder how many would be dropping out after the debate. He's a master, and no democratic candidate possesses his skills. That's why so many still stand.

[Erik Latranyi]

It is good that Steyer and Bloomberg are making late stands....it could interrupt any momentum by Sanders or Buttigieg.
