And I predict this despite her recent surge in polls. Her campaigns here in Massachusetts have formed my strong worry about her success in the general election. Great Senator. Great person. Just not up to national campaign success, IMO.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

I think that's her X factor quite frankly BeyondGeography Jun 2019 #38
Right on all points. No matter how much we whine about Russians or hacked voting machines... TreasonousBastard Jun 2019 #43
They try to label all Democrats as socialist. They will try that with Biden, too, pnwmom Jun 2019 #27
That is exactly what I thought. Doreen Jun 2019 #30
