0:00.0	Bernie walks away with a narrow win in New Hampshire. Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar,
0:04.2	vie for the most moderate lane, and Joe Biden finally gives up the ghost. I'm Ben Shapiro. This is The Ben Shapiro
0:09.3	show. The Ben Shapiro show is sponsored by ExpressVPN. You have a right to privacy, so go

0:22.6	Alrighty, so last night, New Hampshire primaries, and the big story coming out is Burn, baby, burn.
0:28.1	Bernie Sanders merges with a very narrow victory.
0:30.7	Now, the question is whether this is a big win for Bernie or whether it's kind of a disappointing showing for Bernie.
0:35.7	And all of that depends on whether you think that he should have consolidated that left-leaning
0:39.6	lane a little bit better.
0:41.3	Now, here's the reality.
0:42.7	Most of the Democratic Party has basically decided that Bernie can't beat Trump.
0:46.3	The reason I say that is because Bernie Sanders won approximately 26% of the vote last night,
0:51.1	which means that 74% of the Democrats who voted in New Hampshire really didn't like Bernie. Now, does that mean that he lost? Of course not. This is sort of like the Republicans in 2016 deciding that most of them thought Trump couldn't win. Now, that turned out to be wrong, right? Bernie could very well win. But suffice it to say that Bernie is the candidate in the race with the highest level of name recognition other than Joe Biden. And Bernie Sanders is the person who has the largest organization. And Bernie Sanders is the
1:14.3	candidate with the most money. And Bernie Sanders is the person with the heaviest and most loyal
1:19.6	base. And all he could drag out of New Hampshire last night was about 26% of the vote.
1:23.7	Now contrast that to New Hampshire Democratic primary circa 2016 just four years ago.
1:28.4	In that New Hampshire Democratic primary, Bernie Sanders walked away with 60% of the vote.
1:33.7	60 against Hillary Clinton, who walked away with 38% of the vote. So he skunked her. He bitered by 22%.
1:39.9	He won an outright majority of the voters in New Hampshire in 2016. Again, 60% of the vote.
1:45.2	Well, last night, he showed up at 26% of the vote, which means that presumably 34% of the people
1:50.7	who voted for him, well, 34% of that 60% went to other candidates, which means a lot of
1:56.2	people in the Democratic Party are very worried about Bernie Sanders as the actual nominee.
