In case you missed it this week, 20 Democrats hopeful to take back the White House in 2020 participated in their first election debates.
Candidates were split on two stages between two nights, with each hour proving Democrats have officially abandoned any moderate position with a full embrace of the most radical leftist positions. Whether it's destroying the private health insurance system, raising taxes on the middle class, providing "free" healthcare to illegal aliens or supporting abortion up until nine months, candidates made their positions clear.
But according to a new Rasmussen poll, the majority of voters believe the positions Democrats are taking land far to the left of their own beliefs.
Voters see most of the Democratic presidential candidates as more liberal than they are and rate their agenda as outside the mainstream.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that just 25% of Likely U.S. Voters consider most of the announced candidates for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination to be about the same as they are in political terms. Fifty-four percent (54%) say most of these candidates are more liberal than they are, while only 13% think they are more conservative.
Last night the "moderate" in the race, former Vice President Joe Biden, performed poorly and his staff is panicking.
Meanwhile, Democrat voters say their main objective is to beat President Trump. From a CBS News poll :
Democrats have different thoughts on what "electability" entails, on what swing voters will want, and there is some division over what the party's message ought to be. They are split on whether the party's message should emphasize returning the country to how it was before Mr. Trump (47%), or whether they should argue for an even more progressive agenda than they had under President Obama (53%.) This something-known-versus-something-new dynamic helps explain some of the candidate preferences across key states.
With the socialist leap to the left, beating Trump is highly unlikely.
WTH?!!!! Stealin’ our thunder. I don’t think so. Friggin’ stinkin’ lyin’ thieves. :-)
Imagine the ripe pickings of news footage showing anything but moderation. These extreme positions are going to come back and bite someone in the butt.
Yep, they’re between a rock and a hard place and there’s no way they can win in my view.
Their goal for almost 3 years is to undo Trump’s win. They are now waiting for the 2020 election to replace him.
What they have is not going to beat Trump in 2020. They have over 20 in the contest and none can beat Trump.
Let’s be honest.. Trump is a dynamo.. he’s a phenomena.. and they can’t bring in someone from the old times politicians.. young or old.. and think they can outshine Trump. They come off as boring, nothing to say and liars.
America isn’t ready for a President Hairass!
Agreed...Hard to imagine 13% of voters more leftist than this group.
“Voters See Democrats As Extremists”
That’s exactly what they want us to see.
Let’s say that the vast majority of Democrat politicians are just greedy shirts trying to get some easy money for themselves by selling Americans into slaughter and slavery.
Would they want us to know that?
Hell no.
If the law enforcement types start rounding up the Democrat politicians for helping to destroy this country, those Democrats will all be sitting in prison telling everyone that they were just poor, confused socialists.
Baloney.
They are willing to sell us into slaughter and slavery so they can put some more silver in their pockets.
How did the 'illegal community' become the number one constituency of the Democrat Party?
Extremists will go to extremes to win - millions on millions of illegals will be voting right along with the entire cast of characters from all the movies sine movies began and of course the dead. Voting precincts will be flooded with hundreds of bused-in voters from neighboring precincts and states. Every college kid will vote at least twice - you get the picture. They will steal the election or die trying.
Bump!
They live in mommy's basement.
Nutty as a fruit cake. Whackos
I agree, Rush nailed it.
Rush said it best:

Yep let’s bring back the golden oldies on the Democrat side.
Jimmy Carter
Walter Mondale
Al Gore
Joe Lieberman
John Kerry
John Edwards
Hillary Clinton
Tim Kaine
Thought nowadays, none of these would be liberal enough for today’s radical Democrat party .l
With the socialist leap to the left, beating Trump is highly unlikely.
With this bunch, Chairman Mao’s “Great Leap Forward” and “Cultural Revolution” would be too conservative for their taste.
Democrats have the press in their pocket.
Corrupt reporters and editors will 'bend the truth' for democrats... or just 'not remember' what was said earlier... or decide it's 'not newsworthy'...
Just ask Tracy Grant of the Washington post or Dean Baquet of the New York Timeshow it's done. They know.
