Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: Dan Rather on Harris going after Biden: "Did she win new fans or turn people off?" [View all]Pachamama
(17,561 posts)Maybe that is why I feel so disappointed today and upset. The only chance that can happen now is if somehow Biden and Harris can meet and figure a way moving forward to work together against healing the wounds of racism and her not attacking him.
I think she made a big blunder in what she did and I think it will cost her even the chance of not just the democratic nomination or being a VP choice.
If she wanted to go after someone in the pool of candidates to shame, it could or should have been Sanders and maybe pick off some of his supporters.
Frankly, you can't make a statement that Americans want to know about food on the table and not a food fight, and then turn around and grab rotten eggs and tomatoes and throw them at the leading candidate. Bad move and she lost credibility for me in that moment and guaranteed with many life-long democrats that support Joe Biden.
I believe she may get a little bump and the media may swarm over her the next week how she "won" the night....but I think she will drop down in polls and it will not be a victory long term.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
