was too easy smearing her. He said that a few months ago.

Also, the “dirt” on Biden was being manufactured, not dug up. Every witness has said Trump only wanted an announcement about Biden, not an investigation.

Sanders has Tad Devine who took mega Ukraine money.

Trump copied Sanders attacks on Hillary. She had multiple opposition campaigns running against her.

Trump will lie about any Democrat, that’s a given.

provisions...they will pick apart everything...and sneer at her 'pie in the sky' policy and of course MFA where you are forced on 'government' insurance-still more people who want to keep their insurance than those who want MFA. Also she came out for giving undocumented folks health care, which I agree with, but it will kill her chances as many in this country have no insurance and don't want to give it to the undocumented.she will be deemed Professor Warren big spending out of touch, 'librul' who will destroy the economy and raise taxes...and it is likely to work. By putting out such detailed policy, she has left herself open to attack.

who can win. Warren is so far down in the polls if this is accurate that she will not be the nominee...so that leaves Sanders or Biden...I would never never never choose Sanders in any primary only a general. And I believe we would lose 35 or more states. Warren is my second choice, but it doesn't look good. And this is not an outlier, sadly I have not seen her up in any poll.

Would love it if you could put the numbers for the top candidates in the subject line, though, so they're instantly visible. (I hate typing numbers myself, make lots of typos, but it helps to be able to see them right away.)
