Default Re: Ultimate Cagefight MMXIX, Democratic Edition

So Joe Biden dropped heavily in a recent national poll to third at 19%, pushing Bernie and Warren both at 20% to the lead. Three notes:
This is a national poll, as opposed to polling in the key swing states that will actually decide the election.
This is one poll, not a bunch of polls, so let's see how this plays out.
It's good to look at more data than just polls, and avoid horse-racey parts.

There's always an argument from the elites and corporate lobbyists that politicians should take their money; it's a trap. They aren't wanting to give money to Warren because they love Warren; they want to buy a candidate to influence the administration and policies, full stop. And more specifically, Bernie scares the fuck out of them.
