I'm not a big fan of the Bernie wing, but the article in WaPo that came out the other day was very good, in terms of critiquing the weaknesses of the Biden campaign.

A great Dem once said 'it's the economy, stupid' and we can't allow Trump to beat us on this issue, which polls show to be Trump's one strong point.

We keep hearing that Trump lied about the virus, but we don't hear why. It's up to Biden/Harris to connect the dots. Trump lied to prop up the stock market while shoveling money (via the Fed and zero interest rates) to big corps - while forcing regular people into the pandemic to die for the 1 percent. Dems are the ones who passed the Cares Act and then the Heroes Act that is still being blocked by the GOP - while regular folks wait on food lines and have lost their healthcare.

Ah thanks BannonsLiver Sep 2020 #26

"I think Bernie Sanders is exactly right.." aidbo Sep 2020 #27

Yes, he said that, but Biden has been doing exactly that in the last week or two. However... George II Sep 2020 #28

Not if he wants to win. Why should Biden take advice from Bernie who lost the Demsrule86 Sep 2020 #30

No...that is what Trump wants. Sander did not even come close to winning. I would take no advice Demsrule86 Sep 2020 #31

Carville has not been right in election strategy since Bill Clinton won! karynnj Sep 2020 #32
