It may be time for some Democrat presidential candidates to admit it’s over for them — such as New York City mayor Bill de Blasio.
He held a campaign event in Cedar Rapids, Iowa on Sunday, and there were more empty chairs than people, according to NY1’s Bobby Cuza:

How can a campaign that has such lackluster enthusiasm possibly continue?
Look at this photo in particular:
Cuza’s photo shows 10 empty chairs and 7 people.Three of them were on their phones.
The other shot wasn’t much better. Two people, plus de Blasio’s wife and their son.
Cuza notes de Blasio spoke for 53 minutes to the small audience, and then took photos “before & after with anyone who asked.”
