      I agree with @databyler that the Democrats top 3 candidates all have major liabilities in the general election, and the next tier has more promising optionshttps://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/10/04/democrats-are-looking-electability-all-wrong-places/ …

      People polling in single digits might also have flaws.

          I think the country that elected Barack Hussein Obama and Donald J Trump night have different ideas of what’s electable than newspaper writers who were convinced Hilary Clinton was totally going to be president.

          Been listening to Klobuchar since her launch... I still have no idea what her priorities are or reasons for running.

          Kamala Harris was at 18% 3 1/2 months ago. She now has near-universal name ID and is at 5.5%. She’s not the electability candidate.

          Flaws that aren’t receiving anywhere near the same level of scrutiny.
