Get a backbone people.. your candidate will not survive if you do not

Know why you are supporting your particular horse in this race.. and understand because our people make mistakes and say things sideways every now and then.. makes them much more susceptible to attack than someone who lies 24/7... the chattering classes cannot get a handle on that kind of person.. one who is so unstable they cannot tell the truth from a lie..but our candidates. they can hammer 24/7 and they will

Do not think for a second anyone is not susceptible to this.. I have read so much ready to go when someone pops up.. there is no hiding from this.. be prepared

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

intramural criticism and complaint. Joe Biden had a perfect response to a question yesterday, a reporter querying him about comments directed toward him. He grinned a Joe Biden grin and said he understood why candidates were doing it, also adding that these are all good people. 'See you around,' he quipped as a response to critics.

No animosity nor the breeding of grudges. Simply an acknowledgement that this is politics and it's the way the competition plays out. Bill Clinton said politics is a blood sport. It certainly produces nicks and scrapes and bruises. But in the end, all these candidates will need to work together for the good of the country, all pushing to oust Trump and his God awful administration,

And yes, peacetrain. The media will hammer everyone, particularly anyone pulling ahead. The test is survival and reaching the finish line.

Because losing 2020 is not an option.

I will take Biden.. anyday over another 4 years of Trump... and I still see him as the best bet to get Trump out of office

Biden is our best bet yesterday, today and tomorrow. But any and all crap needs to be put down once the nomination is settled.

Because losing is not an option. Not if we want a country to live in, that is.

Someone who has been in office as long as Biden has moved along... I am looking at where he is now.. since Biden has worked to keep Planned Parenthood funded
