So I have been undecided since Harris dropped. Nina Turner flipped me

64. Biden's SC speech was just as obnoxious

Crowing about his first primary victory in 32 years of Presidential campaigning on Saturday, Joe felt like jabbing those who are not "real Democrats" because they are more progressive than he is. And there he was parroting Republican talking points about "taxes" as the worst evil, and how we can't afford government programs to help the American people.

I am sure Biden imagined he was skewing Bernie, but to me it sounded like he was spitting in the face of every Democratic in the progressive wing of the party -- as well as all the political independents that are drawn to vote for a Democratic candidate based on their values and policies (not because of the household they were born into). I was personally offended.

All these tone deaf posts about how "uppity" Biden supporters find a particular black woman to be don't help either.

I came into this election supporting Warren, but feeling we had a great field of candidates. I would have included Biden in that. I don't any longer. If the party donors succeed in coronating him, he will have my reluctant vote. But not my time or money. (I'll refocus that on defeating Susan Collins.)

I wish I could count on Biden and his supporters to do the same if Sanders secures the nomination. But from everything I am reading here, they are an entitled bunch who feel their candidate "deserves" the nomination, regardless of what the voters think. That is exactly what went wrong with Hillary. I hope Sanders and/or Warren can save us from a repeat of that fiasco.
