47. A couple things
Mon Jul 13, 2020, 02:17 PM
Jul 2020

I don't think it's in the bag for the following reasons.

1) DNC needs to run a better campaign than in 2016. Don't ignore the swing states. (I don't believe the polls. They were wrong last time.)

2) Don't get complacent. Biden isn't Bill Clinton or Obama. Those were candidates that people could get excited about. Get behind Biden and let others know.

3) I worry about all the ads the R's are running that question Biden's metal state. Some independents will be swayed. I think Biden should avoid the spotlight until the election.
