While it's true that you and a few more have faith in Biden since the beginning, the way and the pace of which people got behind Biden was unpredicted, or at least very hard to predict. Remember, days before the super Tuesday, he was polling under viability (under 15%) in some states that he ended up winning. If he didn't win as big as he did that day, I don't think things would have ended so quickly and so overwhelmingly.

If Bernie were to win a few of those states (like Minnesota, I thought Amy exiting would have given that state to Bernie), I am sure Bernie would stay in longer. And the primary would be a much closer and much harder fight overall.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
