Yes, the pundits are at it again and searching for answers to the question. This writer believes the answers were in PolitiDose commentary when Sanders ran in 2016 and commentary made during the present campaign. But the pundits in the news media are not interested in a true evaluation of political campaigns because their reports are aimed at moving public opinion that sells and not what matters.
As noted in 2016 and the present by this writer, Sanders is not a democrat and does not represent the democratic party or democratic policy, nor does he speak for the democratic party. And in two presidential campaigns, Sanders is a three issue candidate. Health Care, specie interest and campaign finance reform. That is a little tiresome, especially since Sanders has served in congress for over 20 years and has failed to turn the rhetoric into legislation.
Sanders, a registered independent, lost votes by not running as an independent, and as soon as the Nevada, Iowa and New Hampshire primaries (flea primaries) were over, the voters flocked to the democratic candidate Joe Biden in large numbers. Sanders had his back to the wall because he was doomed both ways. He could not win the democratic nomination, nor could he run and win as a third party independent. The pundits never had a clue.
The blue wave that gave Hillary Clinton 48% of the popular vote (which she won) in the 2016 Presidential election, the blue wave that returned the democratic party to control of the U.S. House and the blue wave that defeated two republican governors in Kentucky and Virginia and elected two democratic governors are still rolling in the 2020 Presidential primaries. And Senator Sanders is floating away. The pundits never saw it coming.
