BERNIE SANDERS' NEVADA WIN IS A BREAKOUT MOMENT. THE OTHERS ARE TOAST

‘The only candidate who made any strategic sense on Saturday was Sanders’ Photograph: Callaghan O’Hare/Reuters There are no second prizes in presidential contests. No silver medals. No participation trophies. There are, however, endless numbers of delusional candidates and campaigns who insist that they will sweep the later states, or take their delegates to the convention, or contest the legitimacy of the

nomination process.

This was the position of one Bernie Sanders

four years ago,

not to mention his die-hard fans. Today, after his resounding win in Nevada on Saturday, America’s favorite socialist can look forward to trashing the arguments of the also-rans, just like the Clinton campaign trashed his protracted case of the race in 2016. Because there are no second prizes for Joe Biden, even if he pulls off a win in South Carolina, where the next primary takes place next Saturday. And there are no second prizes for Mike Bloomberg

, even if he

performs respectably on Super Tuesday, just three days later. And for Warren and Buttigieg, beating expectations is not the same as beating

the opposition.

Nevada is the breakthrough moment for Bernie, after squeaking out a win in New Hampshire, and squeaking out something like a tie in whatever happened in Iowa. You can easily dismiss Nevada’s bizarre connection to reality in the tourist version of Las Vegas. You can happily downplay the small number of caucus voters, or the weirdness of the caucus process

itself.

But Nevada shares some similarities with two key neighboring states: California and Arizona. Unlike the early voters in Iowa and New Hampshire, California’s Democrats are not obsessed with politics. They are what the consultants call low-information voters: they have day jobs, like the union workers in Las Vegas. But those union voters defied their bosses, at least among the Culinary Union, and voted heavily for Sanders at the caucus sites in the big hotel-casinos. So Sanders’ poll lead in California – somewhere between 8 and 18

points in recent

polls –

looks big enough to give him a delegate advantage that nobody will overturn after early March. In Texas, the other big Super Tuesday state, Biden was leading as recently as a month ago, but recent

polls suggest a

narrow Sanders lead. Texas is unlikely to help the rest of the pack

catch up to Bernie.

This leads us to the first and last argument that Sanders faces, which is the single most important factor for Democratic voters in every poll in this cycle: who is best placed to beat Donald Trump? The remainder of this primary contest will revolve around a never-ending, unresolvable discussion about Bernie’s prospects against Trumpian and Russian disinformation, targeted most obviously at the massive government spending he proposes. Yet the polls for all the Democratic candidates show a marginal difference between them in the notional head-to-head contests against Donald Trump. For now, a Biden or Bloomberg is a slightly better bet than a Sanders. But Sanders still beats Trump in Michigan, Pennsylvania and even Ohio. If Trump keeps hold of one of the swing states he surprisingly took in 2016, like Wisconsin, then Democrats will need to take back another state to have a couple of paths to victory in November. That’s where Arizona comes in: a state Trump won by 3.5 points last time around. Arizona and Nevada have similar percentages of Latino population: around 30% in both states. Among the Nevada caucus goers, Sanders swept Latino Democrats, taking 54% of their support – a full 40 points ahead of Joe Biden , according to CNN’s

entrance poll.

Those voters cannot be dismissed lightly. They are a good reason why Arizona is now a finely balanced state where Sanders holds a nominal one-point lead over Trump, and Biden was tied with Trump in the most

recent

head-to-head.

The non-Bernie candidates have almost run out of runway. But you wouldn’t know it by listening to them. According to Joe Biden, his crushing defeat in Nevada was some kind of comeback victory. “Well you all did it for me,” he told a crowd of over-excited supporters in Las Vegas. “Now we’re going on to South Carolina and we’re going to take this back.” One of his louder fans screamed out the inevitable: “The comeback

kid!”

“Well you’re sending me back,” said the former vice-president, before smacking the media for declaring him dead. “We’re alive and we’re coming back and we’re going to win.” At that point, the voting count placed Biden some 25 points behind Sanders. Which only counts as alive in the sense that zombies can walk the streets at night.. Biden wasn’t the only one engaging in this kind of Trumpian projection of braggadocious fantasy over the cold hard reality of math, facts and truth “As usual I think we have exceeded expectations,” said Amy Klobuchar, who spoke before the final results were known, at a point where she was rock bottom among the candidates on the debate stage this week. To exceed expectations with a single digit percentage of the vote suggests you have the kind of expectations that doesn’t exactly inspire confidence. At that point the Minnesota senator started fondly recalling her announcement speech in a snowstorm, before she talked about traveling to South Carolina. Since she was talking from Minneapolis, the theme and logistics made more sense than the political strategy. The only candidate who made any strategic sense on Saturday was Sanders, who held his victory rally in San Antonio, Texas. If the Sanders campaign is going to end the hopes and dreams of its rivals early, they will do so in Texas. “Don’t tell anybody. I don’t want to get them nervous,” Sanders said as soon as he got on stage. “We’re going to win the Democratic primary in Texas. And, you know, this is also important. The president gets very, very upset easily. So don’t tell him we’re going to beat him in Texas.” Can Sanders come close in Texas? Possibly but not probably. Recent polls suggest he is only trailing Trump by a couple of points, marginally ahead of the other Democratic candidates. “No campaign has a grassroots movement like we do,” Sanders said

on Saturday.

No campaign except the Trump campaign, that is. It won’t be long before Bernie’s grassroots go toe-to-toe with Donald’s. “Looks like Crazy Bernie is doing well in the Great State of

Nevada,” tweeted

the

craziest president in recorded history. “Congratulations Bernie, & don’t let them take it away from you! Judging from Nevada’s results, he won’t. AMERICA FACES AN EPIC CHOICE... ... this year, and the results will define the country for a generation. These are perilous times. Over the last three years, much of what the Guardian holds dear has been threatened – democracy, civility, truth. This US administration is establishing new norms of behaviour. Anger and cruelty disfigure public discourse and lying is commonplace. Truth is being chased away. But with your help we can continue to put it center stage. Rampant disinformation, partisan news sources and social media's tsunami of fake news is no basis on which to inform the American public in 2020. The need for a robust, independent press has never been greater, and with your support we can continue to provide fact-based reporting that offers public scrutiny and oversight. Our journalism is free and open for all, but it's made possible thanks to the support we receive from readers like you across America in all 50

states.

On the occasion of its 100th birthday in 1921 the editor of the Guardian said, "Perhaps the chief virtue of a newspaper is its independence. It should have a soul of its own." That is more true than ever. Freed from the influence of an owner or shareholders, the Guardian's editorial independence is our unique driving force and

guiding principle.

We hope you will consider supporting us today. We need your support to keep delivering quality journalism that’s open and independent. Every reader contribution, however big or small, is so valuable. SUPPORT THE GUARDIAN FROM AS LITTLE AS $1 – AND IT ONLY TAKES A

MINUTE. THANK YOU.

Sanders just won more votes in Nevada than all the milquetoast centrists—Biden, Buttigieg, Klobuchar, Steyer—combined. Add in the votes for Warren (who probably underperformed in Nevada given that most votes were already cast before she broke out the flamethrower in the debate and roasted Bloomberg's testicles over an open flame) and the support for candidates espousing truly progressive policies is 20 or so points more than the centrist's.

Bernie's victory speech in San Antonio sealed the deal for him, I

think.

He hit every note he needed to, with clarity, directness, most importantly, _believability_. He didn't disparage his opponents, unlike the sour grapes speeches of some. Rather he outlined a very specific future that included everyone. His line about government getting off the backs of women and commitment to nominating Roe v Wade supportive judges was brilliant.

No offense intended to the G ,who really provide a real look on this thing, as opposed to many media outlets who do not.. " RECENT POLLS SUGGEST HE IS ONLY TRAILING TRUMP BY A COUPLE OF POINTS, MARGINALLY AHEAD OF THE OTHER DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES." It appears that despite the polls, sanders has won a insurmountable amount of delegates as result of the dem primary in Nevada. The talk in media is all of a particular group of union support who versed against him and result of that. Proved not true in result, a overwhelming victory in the first primary with people of color as significant part. Is the polling inclusive of those who do not normally participate and then are not included in survey …...seems so that. Result by vote is the true test of this thing of politic, not other

than that.

Polls may but guide us, but not prove that fact. Votes are the true test,none other than that. Result is always vote and who votes for what. That is the only true

poll on things.

Well it amounts to a look see as to the history of this thing, and demographic considered. Sanders has now shown he has a affiliation of the of color demographic which will buy him if not outright wins in the south good showing which will have him all else considered the one to beat. He lost in 16 because of loosing the of color community to HRC. AS Nevada is a read in of color, Hispanic this seems likely to not replicate, But we will see in SC.

Richard L. Wolffe presumes to be a journalist. An important, some might say vital, aspect of that presumption is knowledge of the subject about which one writes. If one states, as Wolffe does here, that Sanders was delusional in questioning the legitimacy of the Democratic party's conduct during the 2016 election then he either doesn't know his subject or he is a shill for another candidate.

This year's U.S. Presidential election is the Democrats' to lose, and they are well on the way to achieving that outcome. Those who don't like Donald Trump will not come together as a whole behind Sanders. The Democrats are too divided, while the GOP supporters are mostly united behind Trump. The best that the Democrats can hope for in 2020 is to build a foundation for Progressive gains in

2022 and 2024.

From a non-American perspective there is nothing “moderate” about the US for profit health industry. Medicare 4 all is a basic human right. It’s time the USA joined the rest of civilisation and bring in public health care for everyone.

If this Sanders win is a sign that Trump is on the way out, I'd buy American citizenship - it must be possible in Trump land - and then I'd vote him out. There is nothing I would like better. Put it another way, Trump and Johnson should try to walk the Mid-Atlantic Ridge together. Better than any wall or any bridge.

I left the US 18 months ago and Trumps victory was a part of the reason. But you can’t vote him out, it’s not that simple. You’d have to go and live in a swing state for a start, I lived in New York and even I’d id had the vote it would have made no difference. New York and California would vote for a dog with a donkey lapel badge. You need to win over some of the deplorables or traditional republicans. The whole question is can Bernie do this. In America.

Right now.

Every time someone from that group has stood for the Presidency-- Gore, Kerry, Hillary-- they've lost. And when it comes to red-baiting the Democrats, I wonder how that will even be possible. Maybe by ignoring what the World knows about Donald Trump and Mr Putin, which is obvious to anyone not being paid to deny

it.

I agree with everything else you wrote, but let’s not forget HRC won the popular vote by a huge margin. Sanders will win both.

Gore lost in part because of Ralph Nader. Clinton lost in part because of Jill Stein (and the Comey letter). Sanders will be the George McGovern of our time.

I just read today that about 1 and one half million voters in California alone were actually not eligible to vote- I bet most ( if not all) were Clinton voters. I doubt she won the popular vote- personally, I don't believe a word she or the DNC say.

Well, it's a definite win for Putin. His two favored candidates are in the lead to clinch their respective

Trump has actually been PROVEN to have been "interfered with" and nobody in the US seems to give a shit. It wont end well, election interference is unpleasant if your used to giving it out rather than taking it.

(1) Go to a Trump rally. He gets 30,000 people at a time. They're not rich. Not even close. It looks like a trailer park in there. (2) To the extent "the rich" support Trump, do you think they're scared right now? Or celebrating?

The people at the rallies follow it round like groupies, it's the same 30000 people, I've even spotted the same people at different rallies. Yes they are poor, but then so are most Americans now. The rich dont need to attend rallies, they attend mar-a-largo food hall for a personal favour from trump. Man of the people my arse. They are toothless, but also brainless. They will turn on him when they realise there isn't actually a wall.

I live in Pennsylvania and I don’t think Sanders would beat Trump unfortunately. I think a lot of people won’t show up for Sanders which is why Trump won here four years ago. I volunteered locally for Hilary Clinton. No one had anything good say about her or Trump and he won. We’ve seen from primaries so far that while he wins the youth vote he’s not increasing the overall numbers like Obama did. I don’t see him having more support than Hilary and she lost. Unless he can get some people who voted for Trump to vote for him it’s not

enough.

Many who voted for trump have already decided they wony vote for him

again.

His rallies are to the exact same audience, trump will find out at election time how easy it is to fill a stadium, but much harder to keep the people you screwed over. Namely women, any immigrant, Mexicans, the middle class, farmers, factory workers, soldiers deployed in Iraq, anyone who gives a shit about climate change and anyone who understands the tax system. That's a wide range of people across all political divides.

I don't understand why all these candidates are still in it. I mean what is Klobuchar still doing? I can understand Warren and Biden still being in, and I can see why Buttigieg thought he might still stand a chance. But at this point the others need to give up the ghost. They could possibly still beat Sanders if they dropped out and left a single candidate. hopefully they won't. He's not a socialist though. He's to the right of Tony Blair for god sake.

If sanders gets less than fifty percent it then is thrown to a second ballot. And the party regulars as per superdelegates, will then decide the outcome, not popular vote. Party regulars are conservative per political bias.

Sanders, who recently beat *every* Dem nominee in a Yahoo/You Gov poll in direct match-ups, is running on a robustly social democratic platform, and, as such, is considerably to the left of Bush's neo-liberal pet poodle, Tony Blair.
