I hear this, but do not agree. One, emotional arguments are not obviously weaker than policy arguments with working class voters. Two, a non-trivial # of suburban moderates who dislike Trump's abnormality are an easier sell for Biden than Warren.https://twitter.com/bdomenech/status/1175920121812008960 …
We both know this is not the issue. Nobody ever questioned Sarah Palin's working-class bona fides. And hey, Warren's economic demagoguery (which gives no quarter to the wealthy who were upwardly mobile from humble roots) may work. I just think Biden's an easier sell.

You’re assuming Warrrn isn’t effective at conveying her authentic working class roots. But she’s very effective st it. You’re also assuming that white working class people don’t want more public provisions. It’s not all cultural signifiers.

And Biden ten years ago might have been an effective candidate. But the constantly befuddled Biden might turn out to be a terrible candidate.
