Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: Joe should drop out and endorse mayor Pete. [View all]still_one
(98,883 posts)Sanders Warren block, significantly more
If one believes Iowa is a bellwether, than that would tend to imply that our best chance to win the GE should be one of the candidates in the Mayor Pete, Klobaucher, Biden block
I think if we choose a candidate too far left, it will be a very steep hill to climb
That being said, saying a candidate should or should not drop out based on the sham that is the Iowa caucus, which discriminates against those with mobility issues, and those who cannot spend hours in a caucus hall, along with the fact that people badger each other to try to change their vote on the second round of voting puts way too much weighting on the Iowa caucus
In fact the order of states for the first primaries-should NOT be Iowa or N.H. in my view
If Sanders or Biden were not in the race, I think Harris would still be a candidate
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
