Bullock campaign seeks to reassure donors, suggests Biden can't beat Trump

[TexasTowelie]

Washington (CNN)Steve Bullock's presidential campaign is seeking to reassure their donors with a memo that casts the race's frontrunner as flawed and unable to defeat President Donald Trump, days before the Montana governor is not among the top 10 candidates on the primary debate stage in Houston.

Bullock so far has failed to gain any traction in the presidential primary. The red state Democrat did not meet either the donor or polling thresholds set by the Democratic National Committee for the September debate and consistently polls at the bottom of the 20 Democrats running for the party's nomination.

But that hasn't dissuaded Bullock, who has said repeatedly that he plans to be in the race when voters caucus in Iowa in February.

One hurdle for that plan could be money, so on Tuesday, Bullock campaign manager Jennifer Ridder sent donors and other supporters a four-point memo laying out Bullock's path to victory and acknowledging that the governor will not be on the stage on Thursday.

A key point outlined by Ridder goes directly after former Vice President Joe Biden, by name, and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, by reputation.

1. Please give it up, Steve,

and make a run for the Senate seat! That is where you are needed.

We need to beat Steve Daines!

2. I like that Bullock And his positions on campaign finance/money on politics

But he should really say something like "I believe I have the best chance to beat Trump". However, in most polling, Biden has the best numbers that consistently show him beating Trump, so I don't know why he would want to go there without numbers backing him up.
