1. Please Folks

Biden is our best chance to win the Electoral College which means state by state. Put your "like" candidate aside and support the one that can beat trump. Winning is all that matters. Saying you would vote for whoever gets the nomination is not going to get it either. Support who can win

2. any of the five can win

so it makes it pretty easy to support whomever will win the nomination because whomever will win the nomination "can win."

Anything else is either fear or the old "only a centrist can win" baloney.

I'm tired of folks on our side showing their belly while the other side gets to be as conservative as possible and win.

5. Sorry

No they can't. We have to win the middle not just the left. Please rethink this.

[qazplm135]

7. oh stop

we have to win BOTH. And picking a candidate that turns off the left is NO smarter than picking a candidate that turns off the middle.

So if Biden, and obviously I wish him long health and happiness, drops dead tomorrow, it's all over?

Or are you just going to switch to another centrist white guy because of your fear of Trump voters and the mythical center?

[blm]

3. I AM supporting who can win.

And win BIG when the electorate becomes more fully engaged.

The strategist class usually gets it wrong.

6. It's not about like

Please try to understand. Why is Biden ahead then?

[qazplm135]

8. first of all

plenty of polls are now showing he's tied with Warren, particularly in the early voting states.

Second of all, why was Hillary ahead at this point in 2007?

Shouldn't we have listened to your argument then and not nominated the black guy with the funny name who wasn't doing as well as Hillary was?

Anyone who treats polls over a year out as gospel is not very knowledgeable about politics or polling.

4. Biden-Beto ticket will give us TX and AZ

The ultras in PA, Wisconsin and Michigan who didn't vote for Hillary will be irrelevant then.

9. Beto is such an underrated candidate.

10. Beto would be a mess

His 'gun confiscation' stuff is the best ammunition Republicans could want. "omg if beto gets elected he'll make you turn in your guns"
