Good for them….
Neither are gonna be the nominee….
Good political statement…
If anyone goes with NY Times editorial boards’ choice?
It will help Joe Biden and even Bernie Sanders…..
New York Times: “The history of the editorial board would suggest that we would side squarely with the candidate with a more traditional approach to pushing the nation forward, within the realities of a constitutional framework and a multiparty country. But the events of the past few years have shaken the confidence of even the most committed institutionalists. We are not veering away from the values we espouse, but we are rattled by the weakness of the institutions that we trusted to undergird those values.”
“There are legitimate questions about whether our democratic system is fundamentally broken. Our elections are getting less free and fair, Congress and the courts are increasingly partisan, foreign nations are flooding society with misinformation, a deluge of money flows through our politics. And the economic mobility that made the American dream possible is vanishing.”
“Both the radical and the realist models warrant serious consideration. If there were ever a time to be open to new ideas, it is now. If there were ever a time to seek stability, now is it.”
“That’s why we’re endorsing the most effective advocates for each approach. They are Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar.”

Zreebs says
At this stage of the game, bothKlobuchar and Warren still have a shot at being the nominee. A large percent of the electorate is still undecided.
My Name Is Jack says
Biden remains the “favorite “ (see my “fair and balanced “odds) .
.Klobuchars best chance is a Biden collapse.
For Warren to prevail, Sanders has to collapse.
Zreebs says
Sanders is the one candidate who I think will be there at the end. But I don’t think that Warren can’t win without a Sander’s collapse. She briefly led in the polling a few months ago – and Sanders was still doing strong.
I will agree that neither Warren nor Klobuchar are likely to win, but there are still a lot of unknowns.
jamesb says
I agree Z….
Sanders is probably the only semi-real challenger to Biden…
Zreebs says
That is not what I said so I have no idea what you are agreeing with.
You shouldn’t agree with someone when you don’t understand what they are talking about.
jamesb says
‘….Sanders is the one candidate who I think will be there at the end. But I don’t think that Warren can’t win without a Sander’s collapse.’….
Sanders against Biden of the two…
Zreebs says
I used a double negative – which means I believe that Warren CAN win without a Sanders collapse.
CG says
My hunch is that the Des Moines Register will endorse Klobuchar.
