JB Is Not My Preferred Candidate

However, with the pile on happening...pundits, JDs, traitor trump and so on so forth...it's annoying and making me angry and I find myself defending him. Is this the effect all those critics desired? Well go on with your bad selves because it will get him elected.

On Edit...stop declaring a war within the Dem Party...Waleed Shahid, you are just trying to make trouble. And why you've been on MSNBC lately is beyond me. Maybe it will take them a while to catch onto you.

primary today, I would vote for:

They're all good people and we should defend them especially against unwarranted attacks.

Badly as this could sweep GOP out of senate and even more seats in the House for democrats. Make no mistake, we haven't seen anything yet as the Russian bots are not even warmed up yet

As far as the bipartisanship garbage, I think and I hope that Biden is just going through the motions

(Did Republicans mention bipartisanship when they passed their tax scam or pushed through their judges - not to mention the 60+ times they tried to kill Obamacare?)

I'm glad I don't have to watch that Crap from the manipulators and manufacturers of "news".. I stopped all that in 2002 when I saw what they were doing for bush and against Democracy.

The suits on msnbc want dividers like WS on to bring down the frontrunner.. I hope it continues to BackFire on them

justice dems are the perfect thing to bring on to diss True Blue Dems.. Dems like those who helped win us the Democratic Victory in the House in 2018. Which I'm sure put a sad on the derelict "media".. and more than a few others.

I read msnbc had on hugh Hewitt also after Biden's speech.. they're so stupidly obvious.. that shows how much they want to bring him down.

I'm sure Team Biden knows this.. just like President Obama knew it/knows it.

These are why DU is sometimes instructive when it comes to the real world. The questions I have after reading your post:

1-How many more people in and outside of DU are experiencing the same feelings?

2-Does it push you to the point where you might vote for him over your current candidate?

I’m actually not surprised by your post because Joe is currently not in my top 2 (Id probably flip a coin between Harris and Warren if my primary was today) and yet I feel compelled to call out the bullshit.

That's my point, how many will find it in them to vote for him because they don't like the pile-on. After all, he's not a bad person, he wouldn't betray us like some I could mention and he would do the best he could by us.

Would I vote for him over someone I prefer....would depend. Would we be talking a one/one primary?

Let’s say your candidate is out of the race by the time your primary rolls around but there are still a couple of others still in?

I can see that trump is scared shitless of him.

I like Joe. Really a lot. I've liked him since he was Obama's VP. I only wish he had run against trump the first time around, as much as I admire Hillary Clinton.

If trump was afraid of Kamala Harris or Liz Warren or Pete Buttigieg they would be my pick.

But it's Joe and I feel very comfortable with my pick.
