Look, I didn't say it was a good diet, just that it wasn't Maccas only. It is mainly fast food with no vegetables, it's what a 14 year old would eat if you gave them an apartment and an Uber Eats account.

Despite that, he doesn't drink alcohol and doesn't smoke so he's actually in reasonable shape.

What's Bernie's diet look like?
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Not that it means anything but Klobucher won in the Florida satellite caucus (Old Iowans in Florida for winter). :lol:

Looks like the "Moderates" want some of that Bootyjudge. Biden looking done, he's had some horrible results.

Apparently the app (yep, an app) that the Iowa DNC are using to report results isn't working and nobody knows who owns it. There are also serious security concerns around it (and knowing the DNC that's a legit concern).

Sanders campaign already using internal results collection to claim victory. Hope this doesn’t come back to bite them!

https://interc.pt/387msiN
WITH THE IOWA Democratic Party unable to collect and release results after the Iowa caucuses on Monday, the campaign of Sen. Bernie Sanders took it on itself to release numbers it collected from nearly 40 percent of precincts, tabulated by its campaign organizers.

The Sanders campaign reports it received 29.7 percent of the vote, closely followed by former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg at 24.6 percent. Sen. Elizabeth Warren came in at 21.2 percent, and former Vice President Joe Biden in fourth at 12.4 percent. Sanders put those numbers out shortly after Buttigieg finished his own, seemingly triumphant speech in Iowa. The party said it would release official results Tuesday.
