Progressives are taking shots at Joe Biden, seeking to blunt the former vice president’s rise in polls by arguing he is too conservative to be the party's presidential nominee.

The criticism has come from rivals to Biden on the campaign trail as well as liberal groups seeking to put a dent into his poll numbers.

They are casting Biden as an establishment figure out of touch with the grass roots of his party, highlighting his work on a Clinton-era crime bill and the Iraq War, among other issues.

The criticism suggests some angst on the part of progressives, who fear Biden might beat out candidates such as Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who have more liberal voting records than the former vice president.

The latest Hill-HarrisX poll released on Monday found Biden winning 46 percent support and holding a 32-point lead nationally over Sanders, who won 14 percent.

Progressives also say they are worried that Biden will lose to Trump, even as the former vice president makes electability the centerpiece of his campaign.

They argue a dyed-in-the-wool progressive has the best chance of energizing voters against Trump, and that Biden could fall to the wayside just as Hillary Clinton did in 2016.

“I think that people’s initial, and main concern is that he is out of step with the primary electorate and is going to have the same problems that Clinton did with motivating the base and being the best candidate to run against Trump,” said one Democratic strategist. “And then that got turbocharged by him jumping out to an early lead, and all of the [news] articles about people being focused on ‘electability’ and that again is going to be another Clinton campaign redux.”

Sanders is drawing a clear distinction between himself and Biden in interviews.

Buttkreig: "America Never As Great As Advertised".

Previously in April, he said “The country as a whole is effectively segregated by race and the resources are different. There is a direct connection between exclusion in the past and exclusion in the present,” Buttigieg explained.

Then die it is.

“In fact, year after year, Mr. Trump appears to have lost more money than nearly any other individual American taxpayer.”

We're # 1, We're # 1, USA, USA, USA

I "lose" money on my real estate income each year too.

Its true you can show a tax loss and still cash flow with commercial real estate due mainly to depreciation, That amounts to about 3% a year. But this seems way, way beyond that. And beware when you sell the guberment claws back those tax losses as ordinary income, that is a bitch. Of course if you take BK that clears the slate but then you cant get loans...or can you? Calling Deutsche Bank

Trump just doesn't want people to read the line item deductions for 'urinating hookers' and 'Putin gratuities'.

Yes, historically the US has not been much of an exporter. In WW2 those weren't washing machines and toasters going to Europe.

Mostly, we've made our own consumer goods and exported wheat, barley, copper, etc. - raw materials.

People don't understand the reason we were the Arsenal of Democracy in WW2 was because International Harvester could go from making 1000s of tractors to 1000s of tanks. RCA went from making AM Radios to making Radars.

Unfortunately, Coldwell Banker Paperwork and Facebook Ads cannot be transformed into Tanks and Radars. But in China, where they now make Tractors and Radios, they sure can.

Well of course he did. He is so modest he doesn't want the a report made public that is a "total exoneration" it might make the Dems feel sad about all the nasty things they have said about him. Such a fine Christian gentleman. His halo glows a bit brighter today.

Trump sent a vid of himself jangling the keys of the Oval Office washroom laughing and singing "They're mine, ALL mine!" to annoy and exacerbate the hearings.

It's OK, but it needs lots more 'wanton' and 'lascivious'.

"We need those redacted names so that 'soon to be prosecuted' Democrats can start making preparations to flee to non-extraditable countries with the numbers of their offshore and Swiss bank accounts penned to their palms!"

"Strange, Obama has been talking about becoming an Indonesian Muslim again!"

Is IPA ok?

One of the shooters was a tranny and big liberal and Obama supporter.

People with mental illnesses shouldn't have guns.

I absolutely agree that mentally ill should not have access to guns or knives.

We have homeless running around with knives, and most of them have knives. Shit is legitimately unstable.

Trump has been busy stacking the 9th Circuit with conservative judges. He didn’t forget how they treated him at the start of his Presidency. He just added judges until the panels are going to be more often conservative leaning than not.

Not that this decision was in any way partisan or unlawful. It was a good and right and reasonable decision, considering that Mexico is not a dangerous country for asylum seekers, and we have no obligation to house everyone in the world who seeks asylum.

This is good news, as it gives Mexico proper incentive to not allow migrants entry into Mexico in the first place — they will be Meico's problem. Best for Mexico to turn them around at the (much smaller and so more defensible) southern Mexico border.

That's awesome news, that means 43% plan on reelecting him.

Trump is winning again! 85 percent polled believe that IHLlary is guilty of treason. "She's a treasonous cunt. But, she's OUR treasonous cunt!"

That is a big drop. What happened?

Really great news, thanks OC

This.
APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostikovitch says

I've read Republicans are 100% convinced that Trump is a traitor but they love it because it makes libby heads asplode!

So he's porking oaks and having saplings.
Nothing to ruminate over here. Move on.. .

57% of Democrats Believe President Trump Guilty of Treeson

The Democrats have managed to obfuscate and muddy the waters about the Mueller report enough that their weak-minded constituents aren’t sure what the results even were! Which has always been the point. If you lie enough long enough and loud enough, a certain number of people will believe you.

Ceffer says

treasonous cunt

The latest in women's perfume, whiffs of wormwood linger in the air. Now "lying cunt" I understand is the preferred attar of the White House beloved by both Kelly Ann and Huckleberry Sanders, strong hints of rotting fish head.

89% of Alex Jones listeners think that President Clinton is a Lizard Person

Awesome.

The superstitious used to cull themselves from the population. Wanton and lascivious anti-vaxxers unite to return to the THE! DARWINIAN! CULL!

Trump just seated his 100th judge. He's a bit ahead of Obama, who seated 391 or so judges over 8 years.
With any luck, we'll get another Supe.

The only issue that bothers me is the abortion issue as we move to the right. . Shouldn't have religion all wrapped up in the decision. Church and state.

Democrats - "Party of Science and Facts"!

OccasionalCortex says

With any luck, that Supe will be a replacement for one of the hard core leftwing ones. Most likely RGB.

Ha! Working in the computer industry, I find myself accidentally calling her "RGB" also. It's RBG. :-)

He's about to turn the 2nd Circuit Conservative for the first time since Jimmy Carter. New York, Conn, and other North East lefties are going to gnash teeth for sure.

This is why we need a Proxy war with China and Russia in Venezuela. So we can Criminalize these Commies Punk trying like hell to overthrow America and everything we stand for. With their lies and vile hate.

We can't have McCarthyism 2.0 soon enough. I can't wait for the day Antifa get their ears boxed and it's reported in the news as good decent thing to do.

Why do you insist on continually posting articles that amount to verbal diarrhea?

Literally the equivalent of “Trumps the greatest ever cause I said so”.

Also, he usually debating guys like these:

Yeah...big, empty, judgy...WORDS!!!

(Everyone notice how smart I am!)

Just think of it as 'CNN Lite', a refreshing draught of fake news fantasy and hysteria.

From the Pentagon Budget! Just a few less $600 toilet seats.

Trust the Trump

He always goes for the optimal, win-win solution. But when he hits the end, he always implements his threats.
