I think social security is really important. I just think that discounts Sanders superior organizing and by then it was clear Biden was hemmoraging and Sirota's contribution was the badly edited video when they had much better hits which they used for subsequent hits.

There was more than just one video clip. Social Security was a big part of Sanders' messaging immediately before Iowa. Of course that's from more than just Sirota and entire campaign organizing (and Biden's lack of organizing) helped.

What is the evidence for the assertion that social security is what did Biden in? It’s not implausible to me but I can think of a lot of other explanations
-
I think specifically the collapse of his numbers among 65+ when social security started getting discussed. It was hyperbolic to say it's only factor but it seems to have been important in loosening his support among base.

um ... pretty much everyone knows that Social Security is something real people care about ALOT. It doesn't follow that this had any real impact on Biden, especially since the attack itself was pretty weak.

Please, in all your Very Important Pundit wisdom, explain what did happen then. Because his polls plummeting and the Social Security attacks were happening simultaneously and there wasn't really anything else going on that could explain the phenomenon.
