3. A quick story from the ground

A life long buddy works in Democratic politics in Florida. He is very, very well connected in both state and national Democratic organizations. He thinks Biden has the best shot in Florida ( although he is more in the Warren mold). He also says there is nervousness within the national DNC that none of these candidates are necessarily equipped to beat Trump and there is actually encouragement from some high ranking officials to push a few more "unnamed" individuals into race to see if they catch fire. Now, my buddy is just one person but he has a real insight to the party elites and Florida politics.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
