OP, that’s not accurate. Warren supporters like myself would vote for Bernie before any of the moderates. Add up the tally between just these two candidates and it’s still the majority in a lot of places. Nevada is a great example of this.

The available attacks against Sanders and his more “extreme” positions scare me (even though I am most aligned to his policies), but the fact is none of the moderate candidates can generate even close to the enthusiasm and grassroots traction that he can.

Like Trump, Sanders only generates enthusiasm in about 15-20% of the country. Against a single “moderate” - say Buttigeig - it would not even be close. But they’re all splitting the vote up and Sanders is going to secure the nomination with ever getting more than 50%.
