appeal to me less because of the attacks. I'm guessing a lot of other Biden supporters feel the same way, so candidates who think they can peel off Biden supporters by attacking him are probably miscalculating.

Most people don’t care about “gaffes” or whatever you want to call this. All of our candidates are going to say things in a dumb way, as they are all human. Everyone on them would make s great president.

Besides people look at Trump. They want him gone and replaced by a Democratic President who will fix this mess. That’s what obsesses the voters I talk to. They don’t have the luxury to parse words and get outraged about our candidates.

I'd like to think Kamala Harris could take the country by storm if Joe goes down but I just don't see it happening. And none of the others could either, short of an act of providence, which I wouldn't rule out but wouldn't count on.

I hear the pundits talking like the election is a popular vote, we need to win the states Joe can win. Warren, Harris most likely won’t win those states. They’ll be called coastal elites that won’t play.

She stands by far my second choice. She is a real fighter and she knows what she's doing and what will be coming her way


People, this election is going to be dirty. Hillary v. Trump is going to look like a cake walk compared to this one. Hillary was pretty much vetted by her previous campaigns so there nothing of anything new they could come up with. Hillary life was laid bare for everyone to see. But this time it will be different. The repugs will do whatever they have to keep their power and we all know nothing is off the table for them. They will especially go after the partners of our candidates. It will be vicious. I only hope they're ready for it.
