It appears that sanders' support of Castro is not being well received in the Sunshine State Gothmog Mar 2020 #8

And 14% for Bloomberg. TwilightZone Mar 2020 #9

Yes, it's safe to basically view Bloomberg delegates as Joe's. nt Mike 03 Mar 2020 #21

Not shocking at all in that state. Affirmation. Todd79 Mar 2020 #10

Is this within the margin of error? awesomerwb1 Mar 2020 #11

Yes, it seems so, which makes it probably worse for Sanders. OnDoutside Mar 2020 #20

Yep, already had a big lead. TwilightZone Mar 2020 #19

I am sure that someone is going to smear Uncle Joe DonaldsRump Mar 2020 #18

People underestimate how bad the Castro gaffe was for Bernie AGeddy Mar 2020 #22

Double digits, let alone viability, looking questionable at this point! tritsofme Mar 2020 #37

Bernie is NOT EVEN VIABLE!!! He'll get ZERO delegates in Florida. Devastating! NurseJackie Mar 2020 #40

well, he might win some at district level, but he will surely not have many nt Celerity Mar 2020 #49

That's true! It will be an overall net LOSS in delegates. He'll fall further and further behind. NurseJackie Mar 2020 #59

Lol at ketchup Celerity Mar 2020 #66

Holy crap wryter2000 Mar 2020 #41
