Just remember Tards, when the recent excitement wears off and Joe starts talking tinker toys in public in a way that keeps dems groaning and cringing, you are trapped like a rat now. No place to go. No one new coming in to the process. Trapped like a rat. We know you are all scared and it is palpable when Joe speaks. You are lighting candles hoping he can make it through each and every sentence. Guess what. It's going to get worse. Much worse.
Democrats fear a 2016 repeat in 2020
(CNN)After Joe Biden's stunning comeback on Super Tuesday, the Democratic Party is once again facing the nightmare of 2016: a collision course between its establishment candidate and Bernie Sanders that could leave the party fractured and weakened come November.
Four years ago, some of Sen. Sanders' most ardent supporters -- including many young voters -- stayed home on Election Day, rejecting Hillary Clinton as their nominee. This campaign cycle, many of the Vermont independent's supporters are still deeply distrustful of a Democratic establishment that they believe wrested the nomination away from Sanders.
But while Clinton and Sanders fought a long, drawn-out battle four years ago, the swift coalescence of Democratic Party figures around Biden has been far more overt and catalytic.
Though all sides claim they will be united in working to defeat President Donald Trump, the brewing Biden-Sanders battle could run even hotter than the Clinton-Sanders clash, because of Biden's and Sanders' dueling strengths, which have divided the party along lines of race and age.
