The issue is not who is running. The issue is that the party is split and both sides are trying to take down the other. I think some of those moderates are probably decent. Delaney, Hickenlooper, Gabbard.

They will be destroyed by the hysterically intolerant "Politically correct" radical militant left.
Newt Gingrich weighs in with his current perspective on this contest. He believes that thanks to what the Democrats are doing, "We are heading towards another Nixon-McGovern-style landslide":
The Democratic candidates are using this aggressive, radical language and name-calling because it fires up their base, and they’ve got nothing left to attack, except for occasional comments from President Trump that they distort.
It’s too hard for the Democratic candidates to come to grips with the fact that the report by Special Counsel Robert Mueller failed to strike a blow that hurt President Trump. So calling everyone and everything racist gets them applause from diehard audiences and helps the candidates to avoid thinking.
Meanwhile – when they aren’t declaring American tradition, history, and culture inherently racist – the Democrats are promoting open borders, free health care for people who enter our country illegally, the end of private insurance and choice in health care, and the death of our economy through fanatical environmental regulations.
I suspect all these ideas get 15 to 20 percent approval when you take them nationwide. But in their mania (which is bolstered by much of the mainstream media and liberal echo chambers) the Democrats are dragging themselves further and further to the left.
As I’ve mentioned before, I believe we are heading toward another Nixon-McGovern-style landslide.
The Trump campaign is spotlighting Joe Biden's vow to ban fossil fuels. As well they should. This is truly radical stuff that would be massively destructive and disruptive to the lives of most Americans.
The Trump reelection campaign likely never imagined that a potential 2020 opponent would practically gift-wrap a made-for-TV negative ad on climate change during a Democratic primary debate -- much less one held in the fossil fuel-reliant Motor City.
Democratic front-runner Joe Biden’s blanket statement that he would end Americans’ use of fossil fuels if elected president amounted to political suicide in parts of the Rust Belt where coal remains king when it comes to jobs and workers’ economic security, the Trump campaign argued.
“If you want to be the Democrat nominee, you have to swear by the radical Green New Deal, which Joe Biden has done,” Trump Communications Director Tim Murtaugh told RealClearPolitics. “He’s ruled out fossil fuels, which would devastate coal-producing states like Pennsylvania and kill countless jobs across the country, not to mention job losses for workers in natural gas and oil.”
And Biden is supposedly the "Moderate" candidate for the Democrats? With proposals like this? Answer: No, he isn't.
Seems to me the Dem candidates are going after each other now.
Each one wants to promise something better for "free" then the next and they are all digging into the past to slander each other as well.
Really doesn't look good for the Dems. First time I've ever seen such infighting in a major political party.
The Dems should have seen this when Sanders ran back in 2016. They dismissed him.
But the number of socialists and progressives have grown in the years since and are now much stronger.
