Biden's run embodies the big question of Democratic primary: What's more important, policy or beating Trump?

A new poll out this week shows Biden, still in the earliest days of his campaign, gets high marks from Democrats on his potential ability to beat the President in November 2020. But his policy positions are not nearly as popular with voters as he is, a problem some other big-name Democratic candidates don't face.

He still has the plurality of the group, but the difference on the issue is 15 percentage points, a substantial decrease. Meanwhile, both Warren and Sanders have a significant increase when it comes to policy -- Warren up seven percentage points and Sanders up five. Warren has often been lauded for her progressive policy proposals in this election, despite her poll numbers placing her squarely in the middle of the large Democratic field.

How can democrats recycle this guy again? Bernie and Biden a repeat of 2016😳

How about this poll by dscc and TheDemocrats ? Why don’t you talk about this one ?

That won’t make any difference to Dem voters.

Biden will be exposed right along beside Obama over the attempted coup on President Trump

High marks from fellow swamp crooks.

Still has to defend his record as well as corrupt son

40 year politician to the rescue. Look at his record. All talk. Bologna in cheif.

Someone should give him a mental test, I don't thing he could add 2 and 2 without saying give me a minute.

He can beat drumpf. What comes before that?

From nytimes November 8, 2016 10:20 p.m. ET. Just going to leave this here for a class discussion about political polls published by the MSM...

This why the dems will lose. New age needs new blood.

Roflmao

like 4 years ago, with Hillary Clinton i thought corruption just was inside DNC & RNC now you see why how deep corruption has gone through this is the evidence of Trump 2020

If this is the best the Democrats have, they are in trouble.

He definitely has things over trump and that hes an adult, he can read, speak think for himself and make his own decisions.

Typical Dems. Love the personality more than the policy.

Wonder if his wife will be by his side the whole time to help him stay coherent, and remember what he's saying. He's to old, to creepy to run.

They never will be. The only chance Biden has is if he mimics Trumps campaign and then gets lucky or cheats.

Pedophile Joe is a no! Who pushes this crap? Oh yea cnn

texasdalton

He needs to start laying out his plan. Talking points are getting old.

Because they have nobody

Oh yea! He’s killin it

ProsecuteCNN for their complicity in war crimes. Lying to the people is tantamount to treason.

He's got the old dem establishment support.

Just funnel in the children for him and he’ll do your bidding.

He’s too damaged, and Trump will capitalize on that

The man that created WAPA is a touchy feely kinda guy. No thanks....

Well that shows the ignorance of democrats. I don’t like what you stand for or your positions but I’ll still vote for you because I like you.

Biden2020 CreepyUncleJoe 2020PresidentialElection

Voters are gonna love to hear about the underhanded business dealings he’s been up to since he left office.

He is showing early signs of dementia. Can’t complete a sentence. He will never make it through 18 months of campaigning. Doesn’t matter anyway. Trump will crush the competition.

Most polls showing Biden 'surging ahead' are totally bogus, like the one CNN released which only consisted of people over 50. That's bc Comcast owns CNN and invested in Biden's campaign. Private media is screwing democracy. Bernie is the true favorite, leads in the Emerson poll.

Where is the outcry on Biden being so handst with females he incounters?!!!!

Even with all the corruption coming out?

Will you please help the

I wonder how Joe Biden's campaign slogan, 'Lower Your Expectations' is going to go over?

Biden is out of touch with reality, The Republican party is complicit. I cannot with clear conscience vote for a person who does not understand the gravity of the situation Biden Thinks Trump Is the Problem, Not All Republicans. Other Democrats Disagree.

Maybe he can sniff out a win.

Joe Biden labeled Donald Trump a 'clown,' but said president only succeeds at name-callingFormer Vice President Joe Biden demanded a higher level of discourse in the 2020 campaign, claiming he has 'so many nicknames' to give President Donald Trump, but settling for now on 'clown.' Biden is not exactly taking the high road. But then again, he's not exactly known for his eloquence. Might be the right match for Trump that way. Trump IS a clown and SOB.

Joe Biden calls for $15 minimum wage, Medicare public option at first 2020 campaign stopBiden's remarks at his first 2020 campaign stop echoed previous speeches that paired attacks on President Trump with calls for greater worker dignity. Pressure would include better policies, not half assed versions of progressive ones. Interesting. Biden seems to want to shed his 'moderate' pedigree. How exactly is that upping pressure on progressive democratic rivals? A 'Medicare public option' is not the progressive policy position.
