    Nate Silver Retweeted Matt Stoller

    That's because the plurality of Democrats aren't this obtuse and recognize that the policy stances Biden held as Obama's 2-term vice president probably tell them a lot more about how he'd govern than something he said in 1995.https://twitter.com/matthewstoller/status/1124296527231508480 …

    Here's Biden endorsing slashing Social Security. If you think this makes him a Republican or a conservative, you're wrong. It means you're out of step with the Democratic Party, a plurality of whom wants this guy as their leader. https://twitter.com/WalkerBragman/status/1124282060984803328 …

        In the 1990s Elizabeth Warren was a Republican and Trump endorsed a wealth tax but not many voters are dumb enough to let that determine their decisions now.

        Also a great illustration of why non-freshman Senators never get elected President.

        Probably a good time to point out that Obama offered up Social Security as part of his "grand bargain."

        Yes, Obama sought to cut Social Security, which I'm sure Nate would've cheered as he mindlessly cheered Geithner and the bailouts. Nate is in the center of the Democratic party, I am not.

        Obama also attacked earned benefits through his 2010, mid-recession, Simpson-Bowles (or Catfood) Commission aimed at fast tracking cuts to Social Security, Medicare and veterans’ benefits. Are there some statistics on Nate’s ability to accurately describe political history?

        It also speaks to Biden's willingness to play by the rules established by Ronald Reagan.

        Doesn’t this give pause to seniors and others who rely on these vital programs? Most people aren’t going to analyze these issues through the Beltway policy genesis lens, especially when he seemed so committed to freezing these important benefits...
