Still a pretty odd thing to hear shots being fired at Warren from a Sanders stage. Do Sanders supporters prefer a candidate who stirs up shit among his most progressive colleagues to one focused on seeing those progressive policies advanced? I mean, yeah! Take that Liz Warren!

Right now, the most gettable voters for Bernie are not Warren supporters but Biden supporters. By far. So focusing on Warren makes no political sense.

It was an offhand comment, one line, in a throwaway stump speech at an ice cream social in Iowa. Probably not the right move given the predictable way the media has exploded over it but hardly "focusing."

Right -- it was a misstep (and one that is easily exploitable by people opposed to both Sanders & Warren). When there is a misstep best to move on rather than double down and make it even bigger. The impulse to defend every misstep is also a political mistake.

In Iowa in particular, Sanders has a problem with 2016 Hillary voters who think he hurt her in the general. Anything that brings that forward is bad for him. (Yes, in theory, he can win with just 2/3 of 2016 vote, but he's not close to that rn.)

That's fair & sensible. My only proviso would be that the strategy, if it involves a rival that it's not wise to fight with at the moment, is to to de-escalate rather than double down.

Again, what official campaign surrogate are you giving advice to, Jeet?
