My more paranoid and cynical side wonders if "national security" is actually the real number one reason for establishment opposition to Sanders. Medicare for All can be stymied in congress, but the national security state needs a president who will go along with them.

we just had a "national security" impeachment that underperformed

No we don’t. There’s only one kind of administration once they’ve moved in. Read your Lewis Lapham:

“He is one of the most admirable people I’ve ever known,” said James Carville, the legendary Democratic strategist, who has thrown his support behind the presidential campaign of Sen. Michael F. Bennet (Colo.). “But he’s never been a good candidate. This is not his first rodeo, and he ain’t roped a cow yet.”

It's looking like the end of the road for the Yang Gang, which sucks because now I don't know how I'm going to make the $1k monthly payments on the beemer I bought when he announced his candidacy.

It occurs to me that we could’ve had Adrian Fenty running instead of Buttigieg but I suppose he lost his taste for politics entirely after technocracy proved less popular than corruption in DC

Reason To Believe PAC -- a super PAC supporting Deval Patrick -- spent over $1.8 million on advertising in New Hampshire. Patrick currently has 93 total votes with about 20% in.
