The new survey finds Biden with 34 percent support among Democrats, followed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) at 17 percent.

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) is in third place with 9 percent support, followed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) at 8 percent, South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg at 4 percent, former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke at 3 percent and Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) at 2 percent.

Sleepy Ol' Joe just keeps plugging along. Looks like Gabbard's attack on Harris from the left drew some blood, Harris now being at 9%, which is lower than before. The Squaw is now right behind the Mulatto. I have a hard time believing Joe will be able to hang on the way he is, but it's a lot like the Republican establishment backing the loser Dole in 1996 when all the other candidates were so badly flawed. The CA primary, coming about a mo. after NH, is going to be fun to watch and might decide the whole thing. Good thing I just got a 36 pack of popcorn from Amazon. Now all will be good in the world once my new Springfield Armory AR is delivered and a get 1,000 rounds of .556 ammo to go with it.

Lie low, remain the least unacceptable, and be not Trump. A sound campaign strategy, although a doorstop or a tree stump or a box of rocks could also pull that off.

The Squaw is now right behind the Mulatto.

Mulatto is a term for someone who is half black and half white. Chigro is a term for someone who is half Chinese and half black. Harris is half black and half Indian.

Perhaps the term for her is Indigo?

If a heterosexual white man wins the nomination, then the running mate must be a woman, homosexual, or member of an ethnic minority.

But, Cory Booker said he would not be Biden’s running mate, because we can’t have two men on the ticket.

If a woman or minority or gay is the nominee, perhaps a heterosexual white man can be the running mate.

It’s interesting that 34% of the rat voters realize all the leftists are losers and so their grasping at sleepy joe.

In a normal primary, where only 1 or 2 of the candidates were leftist losers (think kucinich, for example, in 2004) there would be plenty of competition for the “moderate” (hahahaha!) lane against a 77 year old brain-dead pedophile. But this year the 77 year old ped is the only “moderate” (hahahaha!).

At this point, it looks like a Biden/Gabbard ticket. She scored a few points with him with her take down of Harris, and she adds being a Vet to any ticket she’s on.

How does Beto rate 3%? That’s the biggest loser I’ve ever seen

She isn’t hot enough to cover the misery that her party has brought to the cities they run. I hope I’m not alone in thinking that.

Could be and, as no. 10 said, “Sex sells.” She might even become Ol’ Joe’s “Energizer Bunny.” I know, I inherited the evil “mind of a Spotted Adder” from my late mother.

I heard the criteria for the next round of debates is tighter. They have to be at a certain minimal level of support in some polls, plus have a certain amount of donations and donors, and those donors must be from a number of different states.

Based on the tighter criteria, only about 7 or 8 of the 20+ declared candidates will make the cut to fight another day, based on where they stand right now.

Booker is gay, just not out of the closet.

Hey, Spartacus, if Joe Biteme is one man on the ticket, who would be the other man?

The President said that it would come down to either Biden or Bernie. I can’t wait to see it all shake out. I believe that the President has the best instincts. I’m hard pressed to believe that Biden will be the last man standing, but we’ll see.

Gabbard could be the left’s Trump in this election. I wouldn’t be surprised for her to have the lead within a few months. And frankly I think she’s dangerous to Trump.

IMHO if Biden was to win there would be big celebrations in China.
