129. Funny you have to resort to insults and RW talking points

The DNA is a favortie talking point of tRump, so it always bothers me whe people here try to use it to discredit Warren. I guess when you have Biden's voting record favoring Wall Street, the Anita Hill problem and other issues that will come up in the primary you don't want to talk issues, so it's the non-issue DNA thing.

Also, it's good to read a post before posting an answer. I never said he didn't have a path. I said he lost twice before - a fact. Simply being Obama's vice-president is not going to be enough for him. We will have debates and situations that will come up going forward that wil change polls going forward. Hopefully the candidates - and their suporters on here - will stick to the issues and facts.

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