If there is any hint of any state in the deep South turning anywhere close to purple you can bet the Republicans will ramp up their voter suppression efforts against people likely to vote for Democrats. The "Rust Belt" - which matters a whole lot more - hasn't voted yet and now that The South has voted I think it's down hill from here for Mr. Biden.
The Rust Belt isn't going to overwhelmingly favor Bernie over Biden. Biden isn't Hillary. And Florida is going to eat Bernie alive. Let's hope he's even viable there.
Quote:Secondly, Donald Trump is afraid Senator Sanders, as leaked audio confirms.
Donald Trump was relieved that Hillary didn't choose Bernie as her running mate (no shit), but that doesn't mean Trump was afraid of Senator Sanders. It just means he acknowledged that Hillary + Bernie would've been more of a challenge for him than Hillary + Tim Kaine. It doesn't mean Trump would've shat himself if Bernie instead was the nominee. On the contrary.
Quote:There's so much to attack Joe Biden on and Donald Trump will be viscous and ruthless.
I don't think this matters as much as people think. Biden has this perception of toughness that Hillary didn't have (and Bernie certainly doesn't), and will have the advantage of being a white man who's had ample political experience (so no sexist attitudes to deal with).
Quote:If the media did its job properly - that is holding people to account - then Joe Biden would have been done ages ago. Does anybody actually believe Mr. Biden got arrested alongside Nelson Mandela for example? Yet you won't hear about that obvious lie he told on the cable news because they would rather have four more years of Donald Trump has president than Senator Sanders as the Democratic nominee.
