Biden polls numbers historically go down once he announces and starts campaigning, while... InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #33
I assume this is why Biden hasn't declared yet. shanny Apr 2019 #49
Exactly right! Biden has to know he can't win, but I would never say he shouldn't run for a 3rd time InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #52
Not a good comparison. John Fante Apr 2019 #77
He is running as a VP really a Obama third term. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #108
He was VP for 8 years good luck with old shit. Not Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #83

What revolution? It doesn't exist. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #109
Do explain how what were "radical leftist" ideas a mere 2 years ago shanny Apr 2019 #139
That is a myth. Democrats have advocated those ideas for years. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #141

I have seen posts supporting Sanders Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #165
so what? shanny Apr 2019 #175
I was curious how since Sanders is older than Biden and Bidens age was the issue how Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #179
Show me where I ever said Biden's AGE was the issue. shanny Apr 2019 #185
... and wiser! InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #162
No I don't tho think so. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #164
I agree. He always was. shanny Apr 2019 #177
How some peeps don't see this is beyond me!! InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #178
Bernie running behind Biden in New Hampshire... louis c Apr 2019 #220

There are no bad feelings. Bernie brought in TONS of new, energized voters to the Democratic Party. InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #113
Are you kidding? We lost and many including me don't think he helped enough Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #117
Bernie didn't help enough? Yeah riiiiigght... he campaigned for Hillary night and day... InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #118
Do you really believe there are no hard feelings? We lost and he now has people who Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #121
No, I'm sayin there SHOULDN'T be hard feelins, just like there shouldn't have been any against Obama InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #125
Hillary worked her heart out for Obama, and Bill did also. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #149
No, I'm telling you how you SHOULDN'T feel... it only hurts your own self-interests. InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #151
I don't consider supporting Sen Sanders to be in my best interest. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #157
You should-Joe was a great VP by adoptin Obama's agenda, which was more like Bernie's than Joe's own InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #160
Obama's agenda is nothing like Sen. Sanders. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #166
I don't agree with that. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #167
Of course not... it's Bernie we're talking about. InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #168
People are allowed to feel differently than you about Sanders. This Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #170
Never said otherwise... you have every right to be wrong about Bernie. InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #173
So do you. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #174
Bernie brought a TON of voters to Trump after losing the Dem primary as well. awesomerwb1 Apr 2019 #146
Yes..true. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #150
I don't know why that is so easily dismissed... themaguffin Apr 2019 #120
I agree. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #123
Still amazing to me how much support Bernie has lost, everywhere. Gothmog Apr 2019 #208
And Sanders historically loses every Presidential Primary he enters. OilemFirchen Apr 2019 #88
Polls show Bernie Sanders' popularity among all voters is plummeting Gothmog Apr 2019 #206
He's been bleeding support since Clinton cinched the nomination. OilemFirchen Apr 2019 #214
I expect Pete Buttigieg to surpass Bernie. Blue_true Apr 2019 #91
You underestimate Bernie at your own peril. InAbLuEsTaTe Apr 2019 #133

I'm confused. I thought I was agreeing with you. Demit Apr 2019 #200
I think we agree where we're talking about Hortensis Apr 2019 #204
The "brief" part of the hug or other kind of touch is an important distinction. Demit Apr 2019 #218
A big fat nothing, politically motivated attack. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #111
Ya, the pattern is for every 10,000 people Biden encounters in a single instance... louis c Apr 2019 #10

The voters are way too smart for that? He hasn't even declared yet, much less faced an election. Demit Apr 2019 #35
He was VP for eight years...running for a third Obama term. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #112
I look forward to how he campaigns. Demit Apr 2019 #119
It is diferent.He ran twice with Obama. Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #124
As the sidekick. He's running for himself now. Demit Apr 2019 #127
Not true...Biden delivered in all ways for Obama. He was hands on in the campaign Demsrule86 Apr 2019 #159
I doubt people will vote for Biden because he was "hands on" in Obama's presidential campaign. Demit Apr 2019 #186
