TOWSON, Maryland Sunday, March 1, 2020 - My, how a day can change things. Going into Saturday, Democrats everywhere were hoping against hope that old Joe Biden would hang on to a shrinking lead in the polls and defeat the Communist, Bernie "Mao Tse" Sanders in South Carolina.
Well, guess what? Old Joe didn't merely hang on. He annihilated Sanders, giving hope to the American contingent that still exists among the donkeys that Communism will not completely swallow up the party of John Kennedy, FDR and Harry Truman.
When all was said in done there, in the Southern Carolinas last evening, Biden had over 48% of the votes cast and had collected 35 of the 54 delegates available. By contrast, the Communist and Anti-American, Sanders, ended up with a shade over 19% of the cast votes, good for a stunningly low (and unlucky) 13 delegates.
The other Democrats still in the race gathered the remaining votes, but none of them were awarded even a single delegate.
It stood to reason that, even in today's wacky and ill-informed America, there would be more than a little bit of "waking up" as primary elections and caucuses approached in the 50 states. Thousands of Americans have perished trying to prevent Communists from taking over in these United States and elsewhere in the Western World. That fact can still be like a bucket of ice cold water being thrown in your face when the cold hard reality of what you are about to do hits you in a voting booth.
Like thousands of Americans, I'm only too happy to vote for a candidate who has cogent ideas about improving the American Experience. But I will be damned if that willingness includes handing a key to the pantry to a candidate - like the old Communist Bernie Sanders - who wants to destroy all things American.
And that is EXACTLY what the old fool Sanders wants to do. When he takes to the stage and gets all red-faced, it's like he's back in his younger days, honeymooning in Moscow (he really did that, you know).
In the coming days, we Democrats will learn if sanity had merely a short reprieve on Saturday, or if the good guys are really still alive and kicking. Can't we do better than falling back on crossing the party line again and asking a Republican to save the nation?
