On the other hand, it wasn't entirely unpredictable. Biden has always put himself in the party's middle through its decades-long reconfigurations. It just happens that the center is much more progressive (on certain issues) than in previous times. Many underestimated that.

Biden is backing a 15 min wage right now....
