@marwilliamson @AsteadWH "Robust primary"...name a candidate that would seriously challenge a presidential incumbent, even one you perceive as weak as Joe Biden was.

@AsteadWH The best way to save democracy is to trust democracy. The only way to guarantee it will be the end is if we are willing to make it the means as well.
Suppressing a robust primary was a huge mistake by the DNC, but what’s most extraordinary is how many traditional Democrats…

I’ve said this 100 times. But it’s not the message. It’s the messenger. That is not to say he can’t win (he can) but the MSNBCification of national Democrats has blinded them to his problems. Dems cleared the field for an unpopular candidate. You do that you get a hard election
