Get ready 3-2-1: but she can't win the general. LOL vsrazdem Nov 2019 #1

It seems like no woman can in America SterlingPound Nov 2019 #3

Not Warren, whose own economist says her M4All in the context of her other plans, over 30 hugely emmaverybo Nov 2019 #8

Sounds like a pro-Proposituon 13 talking point. BlueWI Nov 2019 #22

Her economist said it. Read all the proposals, many of which would benefit well to do people emmaverybo Nov 2019 #28

Any plan to cover uninsured and underinsured people BlueWI Nov 2019 #85

Or so 'they' say... flying_wahini Nov 2019 #26

YOU would, Many support M4All, for exactly that reason--to undermine and hopefully abolish emmaverybo Nov 2019 #34

So in reality Continue to do Nothing SterlingPound Nov 2019 #75

I am talking about doing something about our current system regardless of the fate of emmaverybo Nov 2019 #77

National polls mean very little; it's all about the battleground states LongtimeAZDem Nov 2019 #13

Well, we didn't do so well with that logic last time. vsrazdem Nov 2019 #19

I'm on record; I hold your preferred candidate significantly responsible for that LongtimeAZDem Nov 2019 #20

Oh yes, some candidates shouldn't be allowed to win primary battleground states. Really? vsrazdem Nov 2019 #21

He shouldn't have run against he like she was Joe Lieberman. StevieM Nov 2019 #24

Not at all what I'm talking about LongtimeAZDem Nov 2019 #25

We were kicking Trump's ass the last time, until Comey intervened. StevieM Nov 2019 #23

Even WITH Comey, we BlueMTexpat Nov 2019 #65

I think you are underestimating Comey's influence. StevieM Nov 2019 #73

Possibly. BlueMTexpat Nov 2019 #86

Actually, the results lined up very well with matchup polls in battlegrounds. Amimnoch Nov 2019 #76

Except for the fact that she didn't win all those in the primary. vsrazdem Nov 2019 #79

With the exception of Wisconsin, all were within the MOE. Amimnoch Nov 2019 #80

Yes, and you would think if you don't win certain battleground states in the primary, you should vsrazdem Nov 2019 #82

She spent more money in WI and MI than Obama did in 2012. StevieM Nov 2019 #87

Well that may be, but the DNC was warned ahead of time by Dingle that things were not looking good vsrazdem Nov 2019 #88

We did not take these states for granted. StevieM Nov 2019 #90

No, the defintely took Michigan for granted. It was more important to stay in Iowa, which was a big vsrazdem Nov 2019 #91

She did make appearances in Michigan. StevieM Nov 2019 #93

I don't see that at all from that poll. OldRed2450 Nov 2019 #2

Here we go again Hav Nov 2019 #4

LOL!! peggysue2 Nov 2019 #27

You do not mention Bloomberg. He also in that day's poll, with an MOE of 3 points, runs 6 pts, emmaverybo Nov 2019 #5

That poll also has Bloomberg at 43-37 or +6 llke Warren; meanwhile, Biden is at +4 in a poll LongtimeAZDem Nov 2019 #6

Serious cherry picking here. boomer_wv Nov 2019 #71

oh yeah! Kurt V. Nov 2019 #7

Ummm?? Don't think so Thekaspervote Nov 2019 #9

Which poll? pnwmom Nov 2019 #10

I don't think bringing attention to Warren's tie with an undeclared candidate is such a great idea. beastie boy Nov 2019 #11

False Obit list now up to 1000+ ? Thekaspervote Nov 2019 #15

And getting funnier... i mean longer with each day. beastie boy Nov 2019 #17

I am fully aware of what I posted here NewsCenter28 Nov 2019 #29

I posted the polls below...Biden is leading. Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #31

The trouble is she is not besting Trump in GE polls. Biden is...These are approval/disapproval Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #32

You may stand by what you said but it remains a sloppy and wrong conclusion Hav Nov 2019 #36

IA and NH, small, very white do not reflect the country as a whole Thekaspervote Nov 2019 #42

Smearing Biden over Trump's Ukraine lies? No thanks n/t emulatorloo Nov 2019 #69

Your 'poll' shows just the opposite...and by adding the Ukraine lies to the mix, you bring right Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #72

Explain how you get this from the polls at your link...and maybe consider revising this post. Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #30

See post above Dem NewsCenter28 Nov 2019 #33

Approval vs. Disapproval is what is being measured. Unless Warren's numbers were way outside emmaverybo Nov 2019 #39

You are wrong - it's two different questions Fiendish Thingy Nov 2019 #57

OK. Fair enough. Let's see if she picks up considerably in national polls, with AA electorate, and emmaverybo Nov 2019 #59

You can't be serious. That is your evidence for Warren leading...approval /disapproval. Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #40

That's your opinion Thekaspervote Nov 2019 #44

Actually, your point is right there, in the OP beastie boy Nov 2019 #49

I'm just thinking ahead NewsCenter28 Nov 2019 #35

It is a different world...and Warren is doing worse than Biden in most polls...and there are 8 Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #46

NYT/sienna poll Thekaspervote Nov 2019 #47

"Uncle Joe" is ageism and should be banned from DU. gulliver Nov 2019 #64

Idon't like it.. It's silly.. Joe Biden is the former Vice President of Cha Nov 2019 #66

Yes. An ageist and patronizing insult embedded in the OP. Joe Biden is the former, highly emmaverybo Nov 2019 #78

I call him that because I love him nini Nov 2019 #89

Thanks, but you have to ask with any name used, "Would the person called that name appreciate it?" gulliver Nov 2019 #92

Warren is the weakest general election candidate in the real world Gothmog Nov 2019 #74

Biden is leading in latest Q poll in NH due to electability Gothmog Nov 2019 #81

I saw that...in Warren's own backyard yet. Demsrule86 Nov 2019 #83

We still need a lot more "against Trump" polls from swing states. nt LAS14 Nov 2019 #84
