Time to listen up, Bernie

[Galraedia]

It’s still a two-person race, Bernie Sanders. But it’s no longer between you and Joe Biden. It’s between Joe Biden and President Trump.

How do we know? Sanders may ask. But I believe he knows because the vast majority of Democratic voters have spoken. Biden has won three Super Tuesdays (19 of 24 contests), many of them by huge margins. In at least two states Sanders won not a single county. In the midst of the present coronavirus pandemic voters said they do not want the Vermont Senator’s medicine.

Turnouts in the recent Democratic primaries have surpassed those of 2016. It’s not “the establishment” speaking, which the Vermont senator regularly suggests is the case; it’s the broadly based Democratic electorate that craves someone else, someone calmer, more even-handed, and less “revolutionary.”

It was disastrous for Sanders to praise Fidel Castro’s literacy program just before the Florida primary. Socialism is not popular in the Sunshine State, the nation’s third largest state whose population is nearly a quarter Hispanic. In a blowout election Biden carried all 67 counties, winning 62 percent of the total vote to Sanders’ 23 percent. One can well imagine how his vainglorious insistence on being called a “socialist” would play in a general election.
