Is Biden inevitable now?

[SnowLabrador]

Based on the results, he could win SC by 20-30 points, even more than the polls stated. Will this give him enough momentum that he is the presumptive nominee after Super Tuesday?

[SaneDemocrat]

Yes

[rob in cal]

  Or is this just a case where a favorable pro Biden state finally popped up on the calendar? Imagine if it was California voting tonight.  I think if there was more like a week or 10 days until ST this would be more important for Joe.

[indietraveler]

No, if anything a large Biden margin tonight just muddles this more, especially if no one drops out before Tuesday.

[Pericles]

It's looking pretty hard for any candidate to win a pledged delegate majority at this point.

[Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Bodies for Biden]

No, because the primary is still happening in states outside the former Confederacy.

Atlas is going to be insufferable these next three days, isn't it?

[TDAS04]

No, but he is much stronger now.

This is what pundits say every primary, republican or democrat. And it never happens.

No. His prospects have gone from "dead in the water" to "underdog but at least realistically viable"

[Podgy the Bear]

He's probably down by a touchdown, somewhere in the second quarter.  Still a long way to go.

[Zaybay]

Already starting with this, huh?

[Progressive Pessimist]

I'm still not so sure about that. He's back in it though and after Super Tuesday some consolidation around him may finally happen.

[Mexican Wolf]

Of course not. There are still a ton of states left to vote, including many that Biden isn't favored in. (Bernie isn't inevitable, either, by this same metric.)

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

Of course not. A long primary is probably what's inevitable.

[Meclazine for Israel]

It is great news for the old dog.

Everyone loves an underdog, and this is his big chance.

Underdog Joe Biden snatches victory from the jaws of defeat after leading in the polls from December of 2019 to January of 2020.

[Pouring Rain and Blairing Music]

As inevitable as Thanos. Perhaps he has a better shot than Thanos, but nothing is inevitable in the primary right now.

[NeederNodder]

Depends on who drops out and when.

[Hammy]

No, because the primary is still happening in states outside the former Confederacy.

Atlas is going to be insufferable these next three days, isn't it?

Atlas is going to be insufferable the entire primary season, though that's hardly a change from the norm.

[Sbane]

Still think Bernie is the easy favorite to get the plurality of delegates, but if Biden keeps up his performance with AA's across the rest of the states, he will keep it close with Bernie. And then we have the convention.....and 4 more years of Trump.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

No, he isn't, the Establishment is trying to get voters to go with Biden again and they didn't learn their lesson from Hilary.  Bernie already has votes banked in CALI

[Xing]

No. He has a fighting chance now, but he's still the underdog.

[Coastal Elitist]

I think Biden will do better in California than polls shows. If you look at early ballot returns older voters were clearly waiting to vote and they're probably more likely to choose him after his great performance in South Carolina.
