I have now changed my candidate back to undecided

I think this is the fifth change I've made since the whole thing started.

At this point, I think they all need to get together and do some party team building that will help someone win against DT, while fully appreciating the points of healthy competition. Identify areas that are off-limits, identify areas where they need to say, "We all agree on this basic point," and take it from there. In an adult manner. The sight of some of them acting like children on that stage the other night--or in any other setting--is a dream come true to Putin and Trump.

I don't think they're all seeing the forest for their individual trees is how I'd put it if I were more succinct.

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

Was there anything that happened in particular that caused you to change your mind this time?

I think I've gone back to Joe twice and will probably be there again soon. I don't want to dismiss Elizabeth's brilliance and bravado, though.

It's coming down to 1. who can stay cool and warm at the same time and 2. who can win.

Thanks for making me think this through.

I was just curious. I was predisposed to like Biden, but could easily consider any of the ones you mentioned. Warren is one my people in politics, but I think Klobuchar or Biden could be more electable in a general election. I hope we see more of Harris, perhaps as the AG or even a VP.

Whenever I look at the candidates on a debate stage, Joe Biden usually looks and acts the most presidential, though I also believe he is the most experienced and qualified.

How much things can change in a little over a week. This past week has been unlike anything I've seen in politics before.

I'm feeling very optimistic as well. Things seem to be coming together.
