Sanders sharpens 'us vs. them' attacks on Biden

[RandySF]

Bernie Sanders wasted little time on Wednesday drawing a line in the sand in his suddenly one-on-one race against Joe Biden.

The Vermont senator, in remarks from his campaign headquarters in Burlington, drew a stark contrast with the former vice president, whose strong performance on Super Tuesday vaulted him to the top of the Democratic primary's delegate count. With around a fifth of the previous night’s pledged delegates still not allocated, Sanders acknowledged that he and Biden would probably be running “basically neck-and-neck” for the remainder of the primary.

“Joe Biden is somebody I have known for many years. I like Joe. I think he's a very decent human being. Joe and I have a very different voting record. Joe and I have a very different vision for the future of this country,” Sanders said before pivoting quickly to knife Biden on a host of issues. "What this campaign, I think, is increasingly about is which side are you on."

While prognosticators have suggested that the slate of primary states voting later in March could be fertile ground for Biden's coalition of voters, Sanders suggested that the former vice president could struggle to run on his record in states that he said "have been hit very hard" by trade woes.

1. "Which side are you on"?

I'm on the Not Trump side. That's the only choice. There are no other two sides.

2. Sanders is not going to make it easy. He'll damage Biden in the process. But, he'll lose.

Unfortunately, it will likely hurt us in general election. I doubt Sanders or many of his supporters give a damn.
