    I agree with this. Dems want a fighter, even if its one that crosses the line.https://twitter.com/daveweigel/status/1202663131249627136 …

    One big reason I think that Biden v voter clip will help him: You constantly hear Dem voters ask candidates how they can “stand up” to Trump. They have (incorrectly IMO) decided that Clinton lost the 2016 debates bc Trump loomed over her. So shutting down a jerk = good.

        Dems want someone who will challenge an 83 year old to a push up contest?!? The appeal of Biden entirely escapes me on every level.

        I think this is true of the electorate generally, the primary electorate also gives signals that it’s squeamish about “going negative.” And recall Biden chiding Bernie supporters for saying “lock him up.”

        It was NOT as bad as others summarized it. Ya, it could have been a bit better, but It's the STRONGEST, BOLDEST that I've ever seen from Biden.

        IDK, I'm a (still undecided) Dem and the exchange made me uncomfortable. I'd have rather he handled it with the strong moral conviction we saw from Nancy Pelosi today than hearing him call someone a liar.

        Shouting at a man at a town hall, calling him fat, and challenging him to a push-up and IQ contest doesn't make one a fighter. If Dems believed that, they would have voted for Trump.

        I think we're pretty turned off by a push-up contest.

        you should tell that to the people who think Bernie’s some kind of uncivilized brute because he raises his hand above his shoulder sometimes
