I expect to see El-Sayed walking back (clarifying?) some of his most extreme positions, beginning soon. Isn't that the normal course of a dem campaign, to move to the center after the primaries?

If he won't or can't moderate his views, he could end up being another Biden, or Swalwell, or Platner --- picked by the primary voters but suddenly not the candidate anymore. Sometimes I think the DNC prefers to pick the candidates, rather than letting the people do it.

At any rate, it's all poll-driven to them --- if he can't win, under the bus he goes.

If I was Haley I'd keep my calendar open for a while.

That’s the way it used to be. Primaries are a modern 20th century invention............
