Bernie emerges as growing threat to Biden

Politico

The former veep is more concerned about Sanders than he lets on.

By NATASHA KORECKI

01/09/2020 05:08 AM EST

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — When Bernie Sanders attacked Joe Biden recently, the former vice president dismissed his former Senate colleague with a contemptuous brush-off.

“You guys expect me to take Bernie’s comments seriously? Come on,” Biden told reporters as he left an Iowa campaign event last week. “I don’t respond to Bernie’s ridiculous comments.”

But that’s Biden’s public posture.

Both in tactics and rhetoric, there are growing signs he takes his rival very seriously — and that he increasingly views Sanders as his most formidable opponent in Iowa and beyond.

The Biden campaign has specifically courted the endorsement of community leaders in Iowa who backed Sanders in 2016. They’ve sought to combat Sanders’ recent habit of rolling out star surrogates like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez with their own A-list surrogates. And last week, Biden’s five-day Iowa bus tour heavily concentrated on the eastern part of the state — the biggest regional battleground between the two candidates because of its concentration of working-class voters.

1. Biden's going to have to throw a few punches himself

 

Countering AOC with John Kerry is pointless. Bernie has made strong points on Biden’s electability; he needs to respond with more than a laugh.

28. This clickbait headlines's about IOWA. WHITE Iowa, where

 

Sanders' failure to develop appeal beyond a minority of Iowa's white voters doesn't show.

White Iowa, where Biden's widely diverse support and true strong lead is hidden by numbers that show him only somewhat ahead with Iowa's white voters.

AND we don't know how much of Sanders' white support is intended as spoiler to take out Biden and reelect Trump, only that it exists this election as it did last.

41. "Bernie has made strong points on Biden's electability"

 

Very few people question Bidens electability.

When one makes an argument that very few believe in the first place, laughing is appropriate for multiple reasons. One is to show that the argument is being made by someone who is undetectable and not worthy of a response. Second is to not make an argument where none exists in reality. If Biden makes an argument then it means the question is out there in the first place.

Countering AOC with Kerry was a bit much. Kind of like taking a knife to a gun fight. The argument shouldn't be addressed by Biden at all.

44. You don't think Biden's record on trade, IWR, bankruptcy and crime will be an issue in the GE?

 

You're wrong. That's the same race Trump ran in 2016 and he'll be happy to do it again, just with Hunter taking place of "her emails." Bernie has different vulnerabilities and it would behoove Biden to point them out instead of just taking a whole lot of incoming.

2. Just sayin'

 

There's kind of a difference between taking a rival seriously and taking *some* of that rival's comments seriously. The way I took it is that Biden is saying he's not going to respond to every comment because some are ridiculous, in his opinion.

Every contender should be taken seriously as a whole, but they all say some ridiculous stuff now and then.

Just sayin'.

Check your math.

Biden
27.7%
Sanders
18.2%
Warren
15.7%
Buttigieg
7.2%
Bloomberg
5.3%



https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-primary-d/national/

Obama's VP, our last Democratic VP, Joe Biden is polling at an average of 27.7% according to 538.

That is not what one would expect.

19. Math?

 

Maybe you should check your math

Bernie is at 18 and Biden at 27. Bernie would have to increase his polling by 9 to catch him, which is 50% of his total.

27/18 = 1.50

So yes, Biden is polling 50% higher than Bernie.

26. Hmmm. let me look at that unusual phrasing again...

 

You are correct.

I missed the "higher" qualification in your "50% higher" statement.

I read that as Sanders having only 50% of Biden's total, which is not the point you were making.

Thank you for pointing out my mistake.



The construction of your point really did throw me, I think that was the first time this primary season I have seen anyone using a relative qualifier like "50% higher" when discussing polling results. It's accurate, of course, just unusual phrasing.

For example, Warren is at 15% and Mayor Pete is at 7.5%. I have not seen anyone here describe a situation like that as "Warren is 100% higher than Pete", rather its routinely described as "Pete is polling at 50% of Warren".

Again, thanks for pointing out my mistake.

That still leaves Obama's VP. our last Democratic VP, Joe Biden having a polling average of just 27.7%.

That is not what one would expect.

...because he JUST ran in 2016. I mean, his support should have doubled by now.

And what about Ms. Warren? She was leading just a couple months ago. But what happened?

Maybe time to revisit those handy dandy polling statistics? With a large helping of subjective opinion.

Surely you have extensive record criticizing everyone involved (not just Biden) during all that time, right? I can't wait to see it.

Or did your outrage, curiously enough targeting Biden alone, get triggered around the time Bernie became a Democrat again to run for President in 2020, and Biden just happened to best him in the polls?

14. I would love to see sanders vetted

 

I really doubt that Biden is really worried about a weak candidate like sanders. There is so much oppo out there that can be used. I do hope that the media decides to vet sanders. For example, Our Revolution is a dark money super pac that should be investigated I laughed at sanders statement that super pacs are evil given sanders use of a super pac

The press wants a horse race. I doubt that Biden is all that worried. It is clear to most people that sanders would lose badly to trump due to sanders inherent weaknesses and that sanders would kill down ballot candidates. I suspect that you will see more down ballot candidates endorse and campaign for Biden.

And this from 538 updated today. SC is the bellwether for the AA vote. No dem candidate,primary or GE wins without them

32. Otterbein, seriously, you wouldn't want our president elected

 

by a bunch of white people, surely? I knew this headline would be posted as quick as someone could rush it here. But think through what it's suggesting.

Iowa's a nice state, and it is representative of our nation in some ways, but let's not pretend that what white midwest voters want rules the Democratic Party. The Republican white man's Christian party, yes.

But I'm sure you wouldn't want it to be that way for us, even just long enough to elect an unrepresentative candidate.
