That isn’t accurate, polls just before election day had Clinton ahead but not by a great deal RCP average of +3.3. And they were not far off on a national basis - Clinton won the popular vote after all. Where they fell down was narrow wins by Trump with late breaking voters in some key states which is why I mentioned those states in my follow up.

Obviously a very long way to go though.

I'd also imagine alot of that polling was done before Comey's press release on the Clinton emails.
emails, christ, simpler times.
I hope to see a lot of this from him during his campaign and (hope to god) his administration.
This election cycle Dems still had a lot of old white folks as the only viable candidates.

I'm getting the impression that Biden knows the party is changing and needs to make the transition to the younger diverse members.
Makes his VP choice huge especially as he's brought up purposefully being a one term President

What is love?
Christ knows what you reckon qualifies then
Well, I have a 6 year old niece. If someone started touching her the way Biden touches girls of a similar age, I'd call the cops.
yea, you'd have to think Klobuchar is out of the running now. I like Warren but I think I like her too much.
It would damage my soul to see her get pelted from the right and the left while trying to bring reform that benefited the people tearing her apart. Also the VP should probably be under 70!
Val Demmings is probably most likely, a black female former police chief. Might be a good unifying candidate. Can't say I know too much about her tho.

To which Castro responds, "Get your hands off me!"
Kidding! If Warren had been nominated (as she should've been) I'd have liked to see her consider Castro as a running mate.

Said it before but Biden has always been a consensus Democrat. He's moved with the party. Hence him being further left now than at any other stage.

Tell you what... Sarah Palin doesn't look so bad in hindsight, does she?They also seemed to genuinely like each other which is always useful in a running mate - see Obama and Biden for a positive example and McCain Palin for the opposite. Palin’s weren’t even invited to McCain funeral iirc.
Yea, this is why I don't see Harris or Warren being his running mate.They also seemed to genuinely like each other which is always useful in a running mate - see Obama and Biden for a positive example and McCain Palin for the opposite. Palin’s weren’t even invited to McCain funeral iirc.
No she still looks bad.
She is about as intelligent or intellectually curious as Trump and just as nuts, but a true believer on the bible thumping side.
The Trump cult would be the Palin cult
