In reply to the discussion: Shut the front door! - young Dems now like Biden more than Bernie [View all]FoxNewsSucks
(11,981 posts)47. As said,
the article isn't about Sanders being disliked, or liked less, but that Biden is now increasingly liked by Sanders supporters. They're BOTH liked.
Some are apparently such small people that they can't pass up a chance to antagonize The Left or take a shot at Sanders. They foolishly overlook the simple fact that Biden's increasing popularity in general is due to his liberal policy. A surprisingly and unexpected liberal policy. He's a genuinely decent caring human being, but that doesn't get you far politically.
Again, they're BOTH liked. Deservedly so. Biden has earned the approval. If he keeps up the liberal policy agenda, his popularity will only increase. Because of that, not in spite of that.
