Sanders surrogate Josh Fox goes on the attack.

47. Josh Fox attacks Biden, too. It helps Sanders say he isn't indulging in these attacks if his

surrogates do it for him.

As for those surrogates going after Warren -- I've been expecting this for some time. Despite their much-touted non-aggression pact, they both want to be president, and I haven't expected either of them to bow out gracefully and try to turn over their base of support to the other.

Warren has a LOT of support in the media. Nate Silver tweeted a while back about her having more support from the media, apparently, than any other Democratic candidate. He mentioned Sanders as another media favorite, too, but in a second tier with Buttigieg and Harris, as I recall. (And Biden isn't getting much support from the media, but has been maintaining his lead without it, which must be frustrating for those in the media who've been specializing in attacking him.)

Without as much favorable media attention as Warren has, Sanders probably feels he needs his surrogates to go after her. (And to go after Biden, too, of course.)

I don't like it. But I'm not at all surprised by it.

Maybe Warren could say something to Sanders about his surrogates at Thursday's debate...
