If you want a moderate, Biden seems to be the only choice going forward. Because of proportional representation, voting Biden even when he won't win in your state still helps him get more delegates.
Buttigieg and Klobuchar don't have much national support. Bloomberg is a Sanders foil, an ex-Republican, and would lose 1-on-1. The only moderate with national support, the only moderate that could take in most of Bloomgerg's, Steyer's, Klobuchar's, and Buttigieg's support is Biden. This is how I see it. Moderates and liberals should rally around Biden as soon as possible, unless they want socialism on their ticket.
After capitalism gave us Trump, why wouldn't they want socialism on their ticket?

YouGov has been pretty heavy on Warren this cycle, that could explain her high numbers.
Positive view on:
Texas:
Socialism 56 (+19)
Capitalism 37
California:
Socialism 57 (+12)
Capitalism 45
(CBS News/YouGov poll of Dem voters)
That's good for Sanders if true ^^

I also said right after Iowa that I wouldn't choose to endorse anyone who didn't get delegates in all four February states. That only leaves Biden and Bernie.
Oh well.
I'm now begrudgingly endorsing Bernie Sanders in the primary, and will try to advocate on his behalf to my colleagues. I am very worried about Biden's support of the TPP and similar trade deals — both for their destructive impact on Americans, and also that his support of them will likely prove to be a major challenge to retaking the Rust Belt in November. Mr. Sanders has a much more working class centered policy slate, and while he would never be my first choice in this race, he seems to be America's best change right now to actually move towards economic equality and a worker-oriented economy. I will vote (D) in the general election no matter what, but if Mr. Sanders wins the nomination I will actively consider helping out with the campaign. My state is not a contest (it's too late in the primary to matter at all, and its Cook PVI makes is a no-op in November), but I would happily donate and maybe textbank.
I would just like to reiterate that I say begrudgingly for a reason — Mr. Sanders is really my second choice among those still in the race, and my fourth or fifth choice among everyone who ran. But I gave myself strict standards for who I will consider supporting for a reason, and I fully believe that Mr. Sanders is the compromise candidate that I can be most happy with.

I understand it might be hard, but you made the right choice. Thank you for your support of Bernie Sanders and welcome to the Revolution. NotMeUS means something here. It's not just a saying.
If you wanna know more info on how to phone or text bank, and/or canvass, I'd download the Bern App. And yes, make sure to talk to as many people as possible about Bernie. I'm already talking to my family and friends about the primary.

We'll see how Super Tuesday and the rest of the primary goes. I'll start more actively exploring how I could help out if Sanders becomes the presumptive nominee.
A decent amount of my friends and immediate family support Bernie, but my SO is a Pete supporter so I have my work cut out for me already
