Hillary Clinton kicks off the ‘stop Sanders’ movement. Who will follow her lead by AndrewRomano

Welcome to 2020 Vision, the Yahoo News column covering the presidential race with one key takeaway every weekday and a wrap-up each weekend. Reminder: There are 13 days until the Iowa caucuses and 287 days until the 2020 election.

Asked by the Hollywood Reporter whether she would endorse and campaign for Sanders if he were to win the nomination, Clinton refused to commit. “I’m not going to go there yet,” she said. Story continuesClinton’s timing is conspicuous. Since the start of the 2016 primary, pundits and mainstream Democrats have refused to consider Sanders a serious threat for the nomination. That’s changed in recent weeks as Sanders has surged to the top of the polls in Iowa and New Hampshire, cementing his status as the nearest competitor to frontrunner Joe Biden while also out-fundraising the entire field.

The response from Sanders supporters feels personal as well. They are already arguing that their candidate campaigned vigorously for Clinton after the convention; that his base is far more diverse than suggested by the Bernie Bro caricature; and that the “Never Hillary” numbers just don’t add up. Precisely zero hardcore Sanders fans — and Sanders has more hardcore fans than any other 2020 Democrat — will be swayed by Clinton’s naysaying.

In Tuesday’s New York Times, liberal columnist Paul Krugman accused the Sanders campaign of having “flat-out lied about things Biden said in 2018 about Social Security,” calling the “smear” of Biden “almost Trumpian.” Shortly after, Obama’s 2012 campaign manager Jim Messina told Politico that “if I were a campaign manager for Donald Trump and I look at the field, I would very much want to run against Bernie Sanders.”
