      "Perhaps it was the party’s intelligentsia, not Biden, that was out of touch with the modern Democratic electorate." Yep. Throw in the media, which tries to impose its own parochial fixations, especially around identity, on voters who do not subscribe to their blinkered ideology

          This is an accurate characterization of Bernie's performance in 2016. Anyone who covered that race (as I did) knew that many people were drawn to him simply as the only Hillary alternative. He still increased the popularity of socialism, but not to the degree often portrayedpic.twitter.com/izCqNtd4rP

          Because he was, until Biden got in the race. And I have made clear that I believe Bernie has unique strengths and still stands a decent chance.

          Let's also consider that the professional left media have deliberately shredded the meaning of "far left."

          The MSM is not progressive. They love the status quo. The media would LOVE to have Biden as the candidate

          true but also we have those who will SAY they're for free everything, just to avoid harrasment or to fit in, but really rather have @realDonaldTrump in charge, as long as the economy is strong. Bernie will lose again, but @PeteButtigieg will win career politician @JoeBiden
