Of the 34% of Nevada caucus voters who describe themselves as moderate/conservative...here is how they are thinking about voting:

23% Sanders
22% Biden
20% Buttigieg
14% Klobuchar
10% Steyer

Bernie being on top in Nevada among conservative Democrat voters would be a cause for concern if I'm a mainstream Democrat.

more concerning for trump.

trumps wins in some of the great lakes states depended on moderate dem crossover.

No one voting for Sanders is conservative or moderate. They need to take a good hard look at how they view themselves.

some wise leader may suggest that biden get out if thats the best he can do in his sweet spot.

biden. Bloomberg, pete, klobuchar are all in the same lane. i guess klobuchar and pete hope for vp. if they get out, a moderate can win.

as things stand only warren is in sanders lane.

The fact there are Democrats that think they are on the right of their party with a vote for Bernie shows you how mentally retarded Democrats are

He is considered mainstream by the left because of intersectionality.
He is white, old, hetero and rich. He doesn't check any boxes except being a communist.

This is concerning for true moderate Democrats. The party has moved so far left that the 34% in the party who call themselves moderate are still far to the left of the general electorate.
Trump has seen an uptick in support from independents.

The Democrat establishment is correct. Bernie has a ceiling even within their own party. If he's the nominee the concern really shouldn't be if they lose the presidency. That's a forgone conclusion. The major concern is with their down-ballot. They'll lose the House.

After this election I predict Democrats will get rid of proportional delegate primaries. It will be seen as the death knell for this cycle.

First, there is no such thing as a conservative Democrat. But for a moment let’s pretend there is.

No “conservative” Democrat is voting for Bernie, unless they want him to win just so their party crashed and burns and they can rebuild it as a more centrist party.

But that’s just fantasy
