That leaves 244 days to go until the 2020 presidential election.

And speaking from this studio, If last night was Super Tuesday, this was exhaustion.

Wednesday.

It was a late night not only here but across the country.

We don't know all the results yet, but make no mistake, this is a whole new race for the White House I've been writing for months that electability the case for electability is really not so much about the candidates as it is black voters.

The person who black voters say is electable eyes the person that makes the case for electability.

And I think overwhelmingly what we have seen in the last 72 hours is that the candidate that most black voters feel is electable is Joe Biden.

And you know that's not just true of last night.

Joe Biden has a 50 year relationship with black voters, black voters or who got him into politics and who sustained him in his in his political career for, you know, for seven terms in the Senate.

And so he's long been counting on black voters to deliver for him And they did it again in South Carolina and across Super Tuesday, mainly because, you know, as much as there were certainly people who love Joe Biden, who felt familiar with him, who felt that that, like represented Clarence said that that he knew them and they knew him.

But there's also a sense of responsibility that is looming over this election with the black voters that I talked to for them, you know, with them.

With the priority for them being to oust President Donald Trump in November.

They are squarely focused on that goal.

And for them, at least at this point, Joe Biden is the person that they see as being able to help them achieve that goal.

You mean I'm gonna jump over to you first?

Because it does appear that the White House is attempting to shape the race by essentially tryingto outrage Bernie Sanders supporters in advance to try to make sure that they don't coalesce with Joe Biden.

Should he be the nominee, it feels like they're running the 2016 playbook all over again.

That's right, and what it seems like is that you have a president who is on his heels he's facing a number of challenges.

There's the Corona virus that might have all sorts of complications inside the United States, where with the administration scrambling to get out more tests so that people could know whether or not they even have the virus.

Then, of course, you have the stock markets that have seen gains today as as a response to Joe Biden doing well, the Democratic primary.

And then, of course, you have the rise of Joe Biden, someone who President Trump saw as his chief.

It seems person that he did not want to face got himself impeached over trying to get information on Joe Biden and his son on what you see.

The problem with this, of course, is that President Trump is using language.

Not only that, it's paralleling some of the Russian box that we're staying, but it's also paralleling allies of Bernie Sanders, Bernie Sanders and people around him have been saying that the Democratic Party is trying to.

It's trying to cheat Bernie out of it.

I got an email from a group associated with Bernie Sanders saying that Democrats are trying to steal the election from him, so it's not just that President Trump is saying these things.

It's that also, Democrats are saying these things which is feeding into this atmosphere of people feeling aggrieved of your Bernie Sanders supporter, one of the most remarkable 72 hours in American politics.

Not just this election in a long time.

So Joe Biden is now the front runner.

You'd rather be him than anybody else, and you know he's got some good states coming up.

You talked about them earlier.

Florida.

We've got Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana.

So here's what I would say.

He was the national front runner he was pulling in the thirties, so it's always easier in politics to get back supporter vote you once had that.

Never had it all, so that left it bad.

Debates.

Bad performance in Iowa, New Hampshire flirting with Mayor Pete Florida Bloomberg.

Biden has a great night in South Carolina.

Clyburn endorses there.

Pete, Amy, Beto.

All that comes together, and a lot of that vote went back to him.

What really was interesting last night, though it wasn't just the African American vote, which was always a cornerstone.

He really ran up big margins in suburban areas with actually gives him real strength in the upcoming primaries.

It's actually a strong electability case to make the Democrats because that was what fueled our great 2018 at the congressional level.
