Outside the Beltway

Who knew?

Looking back at my predictions about the 2020 Democratic race.

The former VP is focused on beating Bernie Sanders but his team is looking ahead.

The inevitable has happened.

Women didn’t vote for her either. But that doesn’t mean sexism didn’t play a role in her loss.

A quick follow-up.

The races are more alike—and yet more different—than we seem to remember.

A bad night for Bloomberg and Warren has radically reshaped the race.

Evidence from the four early states is not looking promising.

96 percent of the delegates have yet to be awarded. How can the race be down to two?

The Iowa winner and New Hampshire runner-up has acknowledged the inevitable.

She’s continuing to swing at the candidates beating her at the polls.

The billionaire has decided to stop tilting at windmills.

If the current polls are right, the race will be all but over in five days.

It comports with the polling.

There’s no way to catch him in a six-candidate field.

Media overreacts to the Sanders victory all the polls predicted.

Competing in fourteen states plus overseas territories in one day is expensive.

It got somewhat ugly at the kids’ table.

Most national pundits saw it differently than I did.

The wrong people are choosing the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee.

Do gay candidates have a special obligation to be leftists?

Could the fevered dream really come true?

Two early frontrunners are being written off.

It’s a reasonable question but not the right one.

We now have five candidates in double-digits.

The Democratic nominee will be white.

Iowa and New Hampshire voters are changing the perception of the race.

The math compelled it. But he outlasted several better-known candidates.

The plurality of New Hampshire voters are unaffiliated. Should they all stay at home?

Biden’s support is in decline. But it’s not clear that Buttigieg is getting an Iowa bounce.

How is the mayor of a modest-sized Midwestern city doing as well as he has?

There’s a campaign to encourage anti-Trump Republicans and independents to vote in New Hampshire.

The primary season has just started. It is almost over.

Is there a new frontrunner?

The obsession over a singular winner ultimately makes no sense.

The caucus tallies are so riddled with errors that the DNC is calling for a recount.

The media coverage continues on script.

We do not have results yet.

He’s tanned, rested, and ready. But it ain’t happening.

How Iowa works.

Proposed mid-stream changes could help Bloomberg, hurt Sanders, and divide the party.

The leading papers in Iowa and New Hampshire are backing Klobuchar and Warren, respectively.

The 2016 frontrunners at this stage won their nominations easily. But that’s often not the case.

Next week’s Democratic debate could have as few as five candidates.

Elizabeth Warren and Joe Biden both brought in impressive fundraising numbers for the final quarter of 2019.

Andrew Yang had an impressive fourth quarter when it comes to fundraising, but it appears unlikely to help his campaign at all.

A big fundraising quarter for the Senator from Vermont.

Pete Buttigieg had a very successful fundraising quarter at the same time he is rising in the polls.
