Bernie should have quietly released his tax returns before he announced. Now his stalling has increased scrutiny and the bad narrative around him being a 1%er with multiple houses.

Radish posted:If you REALLY care about Sander's tax returns, you should think to yourself how are you any different than the people that were manipulated by our trash media into REALLY caring about Clinton's emails? A standard Bernie attack was about Clinton hiding her speeches to moneyed interests. Bernie knew the power of creating an air of suspicion around a candidate, especially where money is concerned, and the Clinton camp's stubbornness and weak deflections only undermined her.

crazy cloud posted:Reliably, polls from the past few months have shown that Bernie has the most support from nonwhite voters of any of the primary candidates. What you're missing is observable reality. Nope. Biden does. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/black-voters-like-bernie-sanders-just-fine-they-just-might-like-other-candidates-more/ quote:But the Democrat who is really popular with African Americans right now is former Vice President Joe Biden. In the recent Morning Consult polling, Biden was viewed favorably by 77 percent of black Democrats, with just 8 percent viewing him unfavorably. He’s the only potential candidate who had a better net favorable rating than Sanders with black respondents. Booker (45 favorable, 11 unfavorable) and Harris (48-13) are popular too, but a lot of respondents either don’t know who those two senators are or don’t know them well enough to have an opinion of them yet.

Biden has been building relationships with unions and black communities for years, where Bernie was essentially a local Vermont phenomenon until 2016. Purity tests only matter for a specific type of online Dems. bowser posted:https://twitter.com/daveweigel/status/1123207946945613825?s=19 This is basically what Bernie was imputing about Gillum and Abrams's losses.

Pakled posted:Biden is a gaffe-prone idiot but I worry that the last four years of TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP being all over the media has raised the standard for buffoonery to a point where none of the dumb poo poo he says/does registers with voters because Trump did something worse in very recent memory. His plagiarism scandal looks positively quaint compared to Trump. There's an awful lot of wishful thinking on display from the left about Biden's inevitable demise.

DaveWoo posted:Sounds about right. Biden and Clinton will be entirely different races. Clinton had the constant perception of being untrustworthy, inauthentic, and wonkishly distant that ways that Trump could attack. She had everything feeding into that, like an FBI sword of Damocles hanging over her head that fell in late October. People keep attacking Biden's "gaffes" because he is specifically not polished, and he's already showing himself to not care much about policy nitpicks in the same way Clinton did.

I'm not particularly convinced that Biden would do badly relative to the rest of the field. The 2018 wave was largely boring moderates being swept into office, not leftist firebrands. Michigan and Wisconsin elected quiet centrists to their governorships; Whitmer won extremely convincingly. https://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/1125483458720038913

Radish posted:We need to stop acting like everything is always the voters fault and the people in charge of everything are just blowing in the wind. When polled on what he believes most people are ignorant because that's been whitewashed during the entirety of Obama's presidency. As the loudest progressive voice, Bernie has had several years of media attention to make his case to the voters. Maybe the Dem electorate just doesn't like what he his selling, just like they didn't like most of the Our Revolution candidates he backed.
