My white Dem social media friends definitely trend younger due to all my years in youth ministry, and educated. Definitely more Warren than any others there, probably Bernie #2 and a smattering from there. The 30something educated women on my FB feed are, almost to a person. shocked and angry that Warren isn’t the front runner.

The Warren campaign is interesting. She was the clear frontrunner going into this primary and by all accounts should have done much better. Would be interesting to see an obituary on the campaign someday to see what went wrong.

Was trying to find a comparison for her in recent times. Maybe Jeb? A safe pick who could appeal to everyone in the party in some capacity but never could gain traction.
