I wrote this 19 days ago. Now read the next few tweets for what has happened to Warren and Sanders since then, and why.
"Pete Buttigieg rocketed into 2nd place in the Democratic presidential nomination race, with support for ex-frontrunner Elizabeth Warren sliding as voters sour on her universal health care proposal."
"The figures are unwelcome news for Warren, who was riding a growing wave of support in recent months, only to see it crash amid opposition to her Medicare for All proposal that would do away with private health insurance."
"Buttigieg has broken into the top tier, at the expense of Warren, who has taken a dive after being hammered for being too far left on health care and other issues," Quinnipiac polling analyst Tim Malloy said in a statement.
"Buttigieg and Biden oppose Medicare for All, instead offering proposals that would broaden health care coverage to more Americans without ending private insurance, as the plans backed by Warren and Sanders would do."
"Medicare for All has grown increasingly unpopular among American voters. According to Quinnipiac, 36 percent say it is a good idea, while 52 percent say it's bad."
The End

Polling by the Kaiser Family Foundation & the Cook Political Report finds that 62% of all voters in four key swing states say Medicare for all is a “bad idea,” with just 36% saying it’s a “good idea.”
Well done, Elizabeth Warren! You nailed it.
With a headline like that, you are well on your way to oblivion, Ms. Warren. Sorry your attempt to re-write the pledge of allegiance ["One nation under God, with Medicare for All"] didn't work out.
