As his donors panic over a fourth-place finish in Iowa, Joe Biden goes after chief rivals Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg.

Joe Biden moved aggressively Wednesday to keep the walls from closing in further on his campaign in the aftermath of his dismal showing in Iowa, attacking his rivals in an effort to revive his candidacy before New Hampshire votes next week.

“I have great respect for Mayor Pete and his service to this nation, but I do believe it’s a risk — to be just straight up with you for this part — to nominate somebody who’s never held an office higher than mayor of a town of 100,000 people in Indiana,” he said of Buttigieg. Even with the infusion of money, the momentum Biden had when he entered the race will be extremely tough to reignite here.

If Biden falls short, the donor said, and the New Hampshire results look anything like those in Iowa, it could undercut fundraising and start to erode the “firewall” of support Biden‘s campaign argues he has built in more diverse states that vote later.In Nashua on Tuesday, 56-year-old Lisa Milne expressed frustration that Biden’s advisors have not done enough to mitigate the damage of his Iowa loss.

“It is one thing to come in second,” said Cornell Belcher, a pollster who worked on Barack Obama’s presidential campaign and has specialized in studying African American political opinion. “But coming in fourth and getting blown out in New Hampshire? History is not kind to candidates who that happens to.”have stayed with Biden so far, but their support is not guaranteed, Belcher warned.

Iowa will wound Joe Biden if he finishes behind another moderate—then New Hampshire and Nevada become dangerousOpaque internal numbers released by the 2020 campaigns in Iowa amid the delay in the official result point to a disappointing for vice president Joe Biden if borne out. Well never know Do you know what state your in ? I’ve always thought Biden’s support was inflated but I never thought it was this weak. He will probably finish a distant 4th in Iowa and it’s also like he might not get 15% threshold in New Hampshire. This’s the tale of a so-called electable candidate who can’t win elections.

Biden Camp sends letter to state party on 'acute failures' in resultsFormer Vice President Joe Biden’s General Counsel writes that 'considerable flaws in tonight’s Iowa Caucus reporting system. The app that was intended to relay Caucus results to the Party failed; the Party’s back-up telephonic reporting system likewise has failed.' If you watched the live coverage Joe Biden had very few supporters show up at any of the televised caucuses. Hahaha! Wow! Bernie wins and the DNC had a contingency plan in place to blur the results. WOW! Those who call themselves democrats please let this be a lesson that both sides are dirty and don’t give a shit about you. Iowa App was a total disaster. Trump is busy smiling. Things need to be better next time. IowaCaucas MayorCheat IowaCaucuses IowaCaucusDisaster IowaPoll
