I think MFA is dead even if Sanders wins. His 'damned bill' has 14 co-sponsors in the Senate - out of 47 Democrats. I only see a few nationally running on it, so even if 6 newbies come in (a miracle in and of itself) there is no support in the Senate. It simply cannot happen anywhere near as fast as Bernie and Warren campaigned on. If a public option becomes available, that people slowly move to and embrace then maybe waaaaay down the road the landscape will look different.
Michigan is the wild card. While Biden his right now heavily favored, Clinton was heavily favored in 2016 and Sanders beat her 'bigly.' If however Sanders loses here, he's probably finished, unless Hunter Biden gets another job.
Senator Sanders beat Secretary Clinton by 1.42% in 2016. He narrowly beat her. 17,000 votes. 2020 is not 2016. I expect Biden to win big.I think MFA is dead even if Sanders wins.

Last Tuesday and today: exit poll after exit poll say it's a referendum on who can beat Trump.
A clear majority of Americans (57%) want health care for all. Since private insurance can't and won't provide it only a government insurance program can.
Then why is the early frontrunner out of this race?
Because a national health isn't the dominant issue. Getting rid of Trump is. You know as well as I that early front runners often fade.
A national health IS my issue as is getting the wealthy and corporations to pay their fair share of taxes. I voted for Bernie.
You are in the minority.
No.
This has more to Sanders and his weaknesses, real or perceived, as a candidate.
And Warren? MCA was her platform.
As much as you want to keep harping on this Warren and for that matter Sanders was not a "one trick pony"
She had "a plan for that" that being EVERYTHING
Sanders had plans beyond MCA ,College tuition etc etc

And Biden says “ NO Medicare for All” and is winning, so there is that.
Biden has been the National front runner since his announcement in late April.Then why is the early frontrunner out of this race?
