Trump got impeached trying to knock Biden off...there is no way to know how the other candidates will fair. I believe Sanders will lose as a result of the GOP smear machine and his socialist shtick...sure I get it but many voters won't. The other candidates won't carry Michigan, Wisconsin or Pennsylvania ... I will make two exceptions. Warren with a good VP pick or Kolobachar if she moves up in the polls with a good VP pick...have a shot. I think Bloomberg can win because he has a great deal of money and will appeal to moderates in both the Democratic and Republican parties...this would make up for the Sanders voters who refuse to vote for the nominee. Warren would not have this advantage. Possibly Klobachar would coming from what is an increasingly purple state. Biden is still the one that win the blue wall states without which we will not win the presidential election this year or in 2024. It is our only path to the presidency right now. Could we win Georgia or Texas sure...but not likely if we lose this year that will happen anytime soon.

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