Biden: Electing Democrats will be 'much more difficult' if Sanders wins nomination

Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden said Sunday that it would be “much tougher” for Democratic candidates to win in November if Sen. Bernie Sanders wins the Democratic presidential nomination.

He said he had not taken part in conversations about consolidating the Democratic field around one candidate in order to present a stronger challenge to the left-wing Vermont senator, who holds the highest delegate count.

“I’m not going to presume to tell anyone they should drop out and take on Bernie Sanders,” said Mr. Biden on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “I think everyone knows that it’s going to be much more difficult to win back the Senate and keep the House if Bernie’s at the top of the ticket, but that’s a judgment for them to make.”

He added, “I think that’ll sort of work itself out in the near term.”

Biden is seriously out of touch with his own party.

That’s why Bernie needs to be the nominee.

Biden is seriously out of touch in general....I don't believe he would have entered the race had his party not wanted what they thought Biden could do in rolling back Obamas lost legacy and agenda.....

The arrogant EXTORTIONIST/KICKBACK schemer destroying our good will, hard work, honest intentions through “foreign aide” should be in a Ukraine prison. This CREEP and his DEGENERATE son DEBASED the republic and the citizens of this republic.

Civil Asset Forfeiture? Or is that just for we the people?

Don’t be fooled. Biden has said he will have Christians classified as terrorists and put under federal surveillance.

Biden is correct, but I doubt he thought of this by himself. He probably has to be dressed every morning by now. He should have Hildabeast as his VP, since he wouldn’t last a year at his rate of decline anyhow.

Sanders is not going to be the nominee. The only way he gets it is if he has a majority of delegates which he won’t.

The party big wigs want to be as far to the Left as Sanders, but after decades publicly pretending that was not true, while moving the party that way step by step, they now need their pretense to continue before a Sanders victory exposes their lies.

The deep dark Left began the takeover of the Democratic Party in the 1960s, but with a commitment to a gradual approach lest just how far they Left they are be exposed before that takeover of the party and the nation was complete. It is not that Biden is really less to the Left than Sanders. It is only that Biden knows exposing now just how far Left ALL the Democratic Party leaders would take the country would be sooner than they have “prepared” the country to accept. Their work at indoctrination is not yet successful enough for a Sanders administration, and that is what Biden knows. He is really for a “Sanders”, but just not now, not the current one.
