THE SANDERS MOMENT RIGHT NOW IS A CULMINATION OF A PROJECT
THAT’S BEEN REALLY A DECADE
LONG.
LONG. >> UH-HUH.
>> UH-HUH. I WONDER, I MEAN, THE COMMON
CAUSE HERE IS BEATING TRUMP,
AND, JOE, IS IT TOO SOON?
BECAUSE WE’VE ONLY SEEN CAUCUS
RESULTS TO LOOK AT, LIKE, WHERE
STEYER VOTERS WOULD GO IF HE
DROPPED OUT?
DROPPED OUT? WHERE KLOBUCHAR VOTERS WOULD GO
IF SHE DROPPED 0 UT?
WHERE WARREN VOTERS WOULD GO?
BECAUSE I MEAN, THEIR
CANDIDACIES AT THIS POINT AT
LEAST FOR SOME OF THESE FOLKS
ARE FAIRLY IMPOSSIBLE.
ARE THEY NOT?
>> THEY ARE.
LOOK AT ELIZABETH WARREN.
SEE WHAT HAPPENS IN SOUTH
CAROLINA.
CAROLINA. FINISHED THIRD IN IOWA.
AND WE HEARD FOR A YEAR SHE HAD
THE BEST GROUND GAME THERE AND
WAS GOING TO DO GREAT.
SHE FINISHED FOURTH IN NEW
HAMPSHIRE.
HAMPSHIRE. WE HEARD FOR A YEAR THAT THAT
WAS HER HOME STATE AND HAD A
GREAT GROUND GAME THERE.
SHE FINISHED FOURTH.
>> UH-HUH.
>> UH-HUH. >> THEN WE HEARD SHE HAD A GREAT
GROUND GAME IN NEVADA.
SHE FINISHED FOURTH.
WE HAVE SOUTH CAROLINA COMING
UP.
UP. WE’LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS THERE.
>> JUST RAISED $9 MILLION.
>> GREAT.
>> GREAT. THAT’S FANTASTIC.
THAT’S FANTASTIC. MICHAEL BLOOMBERG SPENT LIKE A
COUPLE HUNDRED MILLION AND
DIDN’T DO HIM A LOT OF GOOD.
DID IT?
DID IT? THE OTHER NIGHT.
WE’LL SEE.
WE’LL SEE. MAYBE SHE DOES BETTER
SHE’S GOT -- SHE’S GOT TO START
OVER PERFORMING INSTEAD OF
UNDERPERFORMING.
UNDERPERFORMING. I DON’T THINK ANYBODY OUT THERE
WHO’S STRIDENT, ANTI-WARREN
PERSON, LIKE ATTACKING WARREN,
WOULD SUGGEST THAT SHE HASN’T
RUN A GREAT CAMPAIGN, BECAUSE AS
WE’VE SAID TIME AND AGAIN, SHE’S
RUN A GREAT CAMPAIGN.
I ALSO REMEMBER BACK NIN 2008,
YOU AND ME AND EVERYBODY ON THE
PANEL DECLARING THAT JOE BIDEN
AND CHRIS DODD WERE WINNER OF
EVERY ONE OF THOSE DEBATES.
WASN’T THERE YEAR.
IT WAS BARACK OBAMA AND HILLARY
CLINTON’S YEAR AND THOSE TWO GOT
OUT OF THE RACE QUICKLY.
SO IT’S TIME FOR ELIZABETH
WARREN TO OVERPERFORM.
SHE’S UNDERPERFORMED GREATLY IN
EVERY SINGLE EVENT SHE’S BEEN
IN.
IN. THERE’S JUST NO DENYING THAT.
>> UH-HUH.
>> UH-HUH. >> AMY KLOBUCHAR.
BOY.
BOY. SHE EITHER HAS TO REALLY
OVERPERFORM IN SOUTH CAROLINA,
LIKE SHE DID IN NEW HAMPSHIRE,
OR SHE’S GOING TO -- IT WOULD
MAKE SENSE FOR HER TO GET OUT OF
THE RACE.
THE RACE. AGAIN, THIS ISN’T MY FIRST
RODEO.
RODEO. THIS ISN’T A LOT OF PEOPLE’S
FIRST RODEO.
FIRST RODEO. WE’VE SEEN THIS TIME AND TIME
AGAIN, JON MEACHAM, WHO IS IT
THAT SAYS, ONCE -- IT’S EASIER
TO START RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT
THAN STOP RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT?
BY THE WAY, THE GUY FROM
MINNESOTA, HAROLD STRASSEN, WHO
SEEMED TO RUN EVERY FOUR YEARS.
WELL, WE’VE ALSO SEEN THIS IN
CAMPAIGNS WHERE FROM A DISTANCE
IT’S OBVIOUS.
IT’S OBVIOUS. THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT GOING TO
WIN, AND A LOT OF TIMES THEY’RE
ANGRY AT OTHER PEOPLE.
I THINK BACK, YOU KNOW, PAT
BUCHANAN AND OTHERS WERE VERY
ANGRY AT DOLE.
VERY ANGRY AT THE REPUBLICAN
ESTABLISHMENT.
ESTABLISHMENT. THEY JUST REFUSED TO GET OUT.
BERNIE SANDERS ALSO, VERY ANGRY
AT HILLARY CLINTON.
REFUSED TO GET OUT OF THAT RACE.
AND SOMETIMES PEOPLE HOLD ON A
LOT LONGER THAN THEY SHOULD FOR
