The most important part of that poll is the final question.  The word socialism doesn't seem to attach to Biden which explains the discrepancy between his lead and how close everyone else is.  Or.....Jeff Bezos doesn't want a president that isn't cozy to big businesses.

I was looking just as much at the Trump numbers in those two polls. He gained 5 points in a month against everyone but Biden.

You're comparing two different polling companies with different methodologies so comparing the two over time is useless.  I'm just pointing out the poll suggests that the left would be wise to run your typical neoliberal left of center candidate.  Somebody that won't shake up the economy that's added jobs every month since 2010 and is more palatable than Trump.  The only candidate that fits that description right now is Biden.  Casting himself as moderate and the rest of the field as the far left gives him the best shot at the nomination.

Agreed but you think Biden has a chance when he is under this attack?

I agree with you, but that isn’t looking like what the Party wants. But I’d also add that Trump might want Biden more than anyone. It give Trump the chance to run against the prior regime, and I think he wants that.

Knowing him.  Probably not.  He'll pry apologize for ever serving in Congress by the time his campaign is through.

I won't pretend to know what goes on in that guy's head.

Bye, Joe. 

 

He apologized (again) yesterday... a bad sign for a candidate in the lead. 

 

Joe has zero chance to win, as I've been saying for over a year. Zilch. 

He'd destroy Trump in general election. Trump won largely because white men hated the idea of Hillary, Biden won't have to worry about losing white men in anywhere near the numbers Hillary did, plus he has the huge backing of women. Women hate Trump!

After five decades in the spotlight, Biden is "under attack" by his friends and associates and seems unprepared to handle it and which way to turn. One day he's proud of his record, the next day he's apologizing for relationships he had 40 years ago.  He's all over the page on Anita Hill, portraying himself as weak and wondering what might have been had he just had the courage to do the right thing.

 

Meanwhile, the toughest criticism he's received from the opposition is that he's "sleepy". 

 

There you have the next great dem candidate for president: a sleepy octogenarian who partied with segregationists when fashionable and apologized when it was irrelevant, who has what the ladies used call "Russian eyes and Roman hands" when no one called him on it but became ultra-woke when it mattered when running for president, who has a history of wielding his political power to enrich his own family, and and has a history of plagiarizing the work(s) of others, and has been passed over on his previous runs because in part of a penchant for racist comments.  

 

Sounds about right.

Don't believe the Democrats are slaves to their hard left base?

 

Take this quick quiz:

 

Name just one of its 2020 candidates willing to unequivocally speak aloud this indisputable truth– that the United States is the greatest nation on earth

Wait, are we back to misogyny on the wheel of 2016 excuses? What happened to Comey, women's husbands and sons forcing them not to vote for Hillary, and Russia as the reason she lost?

You don't understand the basic fact that many factors go in to just about any action, event or process? Is there one reason the Bills lost SB XXV? Huh?

But in fairness to Koko, you said the reason she lost was "largely" due to white men hating her.   

 

Was it like 90% white man hate, 3% Comey, 2% women being victimized, 2% Russians duh, and 3% white man hate (so hateful we gotta count em twice@). 

 

Sometimes I wish we could go more than 100% on these things. So much hate, so many victims. Stupid metric system.
