Can't find an answer to this specific question so I call on the Good, the Bad and the Crazy of this forum to answer this: why even bother with the remaining primaries now that Bernie, Biden's only threat, has dropped out?

Yes they are necessary for him to obtain the required number of delegates.

The R party is also holding primaries to nominate Trump, even though his nomination is a foregone conclusion.

Biden is incapable of being a viable presidential candidate!


If the DNC was to run a dead cat for president, the media would look the other way and claim, nothing to see here.


To run Biden is no different than running that dead cat. The attempt to make believe Biden is mentally capable of becoming president is deny reality. It is so outrageous it demands the DNC be investigated by the media.


Without a free press the DNC can boldly run an unfit candidate whose state of consciousness has faded into feebleness.

RNC ran an unfit candidate last time and lowered the bar to close to zero so all bets are off now.

The less that failing uncle Joe needs to appear in public the better it is for him and the Dems.

I wouldn't be surprised in this crisis time that they waive the requirement for delegates.



The Dems seem to be approaching the election like they have already lost.

This is going to sound crazy, but I think there might be elections for more than just President coming up in November, for which primaries are necessary.

At this point the only thing we need the 2020 election for is to find out exactly how many seats Democrats lose in the House and Senate. The presidential race is a foregone conclusion since the Democrats didn't field a viable candidate.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say you really like Biden.

Biden should be disqualified on a count of insanity for even thinking he can come out on the winning end of a debate and election against Trump. Someone needs to sit down and have a chat with him, before Trump lays the ultimate verbal and argumentative smackdown that Biden has ever witnessed. There really doesn't even need to be an election at this point, we are just following along with formalities pretending this Biden won't be in a nursing home next year.

Biden still +6 over Trump in the RCP average.
