IMO, there is a strong argument to be made the Dems are at risk of going to far to the left for the general. But, I'm less sure Biden is the strongest candidate at this point. He was never a great candidate in his previous runs and he hasn't done much to change that reputation this time.

I think this pretty much describes every one of these candidates.

Booker's assessment of Biden is correct, but he misses the main point - Biden would still be a better Pres than Booker

It’s funny that he said his time was up. Time is up for him to hold any office. He is old. Can’t remember what he’s supposed to say.

It would seem that Booker and Harris are basically calling Biden an out of touch racist these days.

They aren't smart enough to figure that out.

Booker will be gone from race soon enough. He is trying to strike some lightning in a bottle. Harris beat him to it but even she hasn’t gotten as much lift as she expected.

Biden still the front runner for now.
