Even though the Nevada Caucuses had their own set of challenges, Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-VT) came out victorious in the Silver State. CNN's Chris Matthews wasn't happy about the results and Joe Biden's campaign is beyond pathetic, as evidenced by a caucus clip.
That's all from us! On to South Carolina!

Sanders has benefited the most from realignment. Steyer has lost the most. https://t.co/u7TSCq7ptw pic.twitter.com/ZTfsxsoo5s

A third of #NVcaucus goers were non-white and more than four in 10 backed @BernieSanders in their initial preference. His share of the vote was smaller among white voters. pic.twitter.com/jU06nmJr4E

And the Democratic media complex won't give up.
So many people in media were so wrong, for so long. Bernie had to deal with a media landscape totally opposed to his success, and prevails anyway.

BREAKING: The AP has declared Bernie Sanders the winner of the Nevada Caucus, cementing his status as Democratic frontrunner

Also, Democratic voters really like Sanders. I fail to see a legitimate anti-Sanders movement putting up a solid defense or anything that can derail Bernie all but taking over the party. That's a bit terrifying.
Many questions too? Why are Democratic voters, especially the culinary union workers who back Sanders tonight, willing to throw the dice on their health care plans being trashed for a gov't one?
Will PA/WI/MI union workers feel the same? Will they gamble? I still fail to see how you can successfully run on taking away health care from 150+ million people and winning. You're literally taking people's stuff--always an election-killing narrative.

That's it, folks. Sanders is now THE guy ... i mean he pretty much already as but it's official now. As for SC, i'll bet a good chunk of money that Sanders eats into Joe Biden's black voter support. We'll see- but the 'put all the eggs in primary x's basket' has never really panned out for anyone recently.

The Democrat's John Kasich ... and he was a former VP to one of the most popular Democratic administrations in recent memory. Sad.
.@joebiden is celebrating right now like he won the Super Bowl...The man is barely holding on to a very distant second place and a month ago he had a double-digit lead in NV! #NevadaCaucus

All the anti-Sanders op-eds, the endorsements against him, the warnings from party leaders, the dirty ads from DC groups, the CIA leaks.None of it matters. They no longer have power. And they know it. That's why they're freaking out.Their last hope: beg Bloomberg to stop this
— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) February 22, 2020
And Bloomberg won't because he can't
