Biden's dysmal fifth-place finish in New Hampshire is the beginning of the end. Creepy Pete will do poorly in South Carolina and Nevada. Senator Warren, sadly, looks to be finished. Senator Klobuchar will also do poorly in South Carolina and Nevada. Bloomberg, meanwhile, is targetting the crucial demographic he needs for the Democratic nomination, beyond the suburban voters that have drifted away from the Repugs and that he'll lock up easily over Sanders. And, of course, he has more financial resources than any of his competitors. Given that the Democratic Party has been for at least thirty years now merely the prudent and less vicious wing of the ruling class, what could be more apt than nominating a billionaire to take on the perfect symbol of the imprudent and very vicious wing of the ruling class?
UPDATE: As if on cue! (Thanks to Jerry Dworkin for the pointer.)
