This seems like ridiculous carping on the part of Team Sanders. It's not like Elizabeth Warren is some brash newcomer. Do they want a coronation based on age? https://t.co/K5ea29m9Ek pic.twitter.com/vPTet8WgIR

No doubt I will pay for this later. WORTH IT!
MoveOn's straw poll result… Warren at 38% more than doubling Sanders (17%) and waaaaaay up from December… Biden coming up with 15%, which is typical for him. Overwhelmingly win the groups that favor him and don't collapse in more hostile territory. pic.twitter.com/qw1EpILJgm

If I were Bernie I'd be asking my advisors how in the hell I'm only getting 17% of the https://t.co/J6fg8ZrYlw vote after getting 79% and the group's endorsement in 2016. (Sorry for your mentions, @ForecasterEnten). https://t.co/dRmSJnjid3

At least among people who vote in the Democratic primary, there are probably more pro-establishment progressives than anti-establishment progressives, and in any event, Sanders needs significant support from both groups to win the nomination.

Because Bernie’s greatest appeal in 2016 was being the only legitimate alternative to Hillary Clinton. When there are more candidates running, he fails to really stand out.
