Summary

After Super Tuesday comes "What Happened" Wednesday. Today, Rolling Stone reporters from both coasts debrief what we know about how the biggest primary day went, and what's next.

Episode Description

After Joe Biden's success on Super Tuesday, and the relatively poor showings from Bloomberg and Warren, the race looks like it will boil down to a face-off between Barack Obama's moderate Vice President and the progressive Senator from Vermont. Bloomberg, who showered Super Tuesday states with a $400 million ad-buy, walked away with a measly 9 delegates, causing him to re-consider whether further investing in the race would be fruitful. Warren too is strapped for cash heading into the late-March contests that are now, for a candidate who has not placed above third in any race, including in her home state, not looking good.
