Plus based on their respective campaigns to date, Biden’s numbers have nowhere to go but down and Warren’s will continue to improve.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

Peope should care about "vs. Trump" poll results when they consider the electoral college PoliticAverse Sep 2019 #1
Warren has the energy to outlast Trump at140 Sep 2019 #14
I agree. That is the thing that I find most attractive about her candidacy. Blue_true Sep 2019 #18
It doesn't take a Warren presidency to do that. LakeArenal Sep 2019 #26
Energy is not the question. Butterflylady Sep 2019 #54
Trump will again do 100+ rallies, Warren can do 200+ rallies at140 Sep 2019 #62
A lot of people hate to admit it. It turns my stomach to even think about it. Blue_true Sep 2019 #75
Congrats for understanding and admitting reality at140 Sep 2019 #83
I agree with you on Biden. I see him running the type of campaign Hillary ran. Blue_true Sep 2019 #85
That's a fallacious argument wysimdnwyg Sep 2019 #63
Excellent post. Blue_true Sep 2019 #84
You are wrong. Energy impacts the "maybe I will vote" voters majorly. Blue_true Sep 2019 #80
Yes. If polls don't show Warren handily beating Trump in WI/MI/PA/FL by primary day, thesquanderer Sep 2019 #55
The polls I have seen show results different from what you described. spooky3 Sep 2019 #2
Please show me those polls. I honestly don't recall any showing Warren typically being within 1 or highplainsdem Sep 2019 #23
Hopefully this is helpful. Tiggeroshii Sep 2019 #38
This is more helpful, because it shows her margin over Trump compared to others: highplainsdem Sep 2019 #41
I dont dispute that at all. Tiggeroshii Sep 2019 #42
Spooky3 was talking about Warren typically being within a point or two of Biden in these polls of highplainsdem Sep 2019 #43
Right. And i just made an argument why i think that comparison has little relevance to Tiggeroshii Sep 2019 #44
The primary voters will speak. Whom ever is the nominee will have gone through fire and Ninga Sep 2019 #3
I think after we get our nominee, he or she will rise Funtatlaguy Sep 2019 #4
If they ever show her losing to him. Until then, no. TCJ70 Sep 2019 #5
What did the polls say about Clinton and Sanders "v Trump" or "v GOP nominee" in 2016 primary? RockRaven Sep 2019 #6
Polls from that time showed Sanders beating Trump handily... TCJ70 Sep 2019 #11
Yes, that was the biggest reason I voted for Sanders. (n/t) thesquanderer Sep 2019 #46
Here are the numbers you asked for... thesquanderer Sep 2019 #51
Eye do. we can do it Sep 2019 #7
Anyone with a pulse will beat tRump. Joe941 Sep 2019 #8
Yes, and question who is going to beat the GOP 2020-2024. sharedvalues Sep 2019 #10
Politely disagree at140 Sep 2019 #64
Oh Yes... The Biden and Bernie are too old and don't have the energy to keep up with tRump argument. Joe941 Sep 2019 #65
As a long time golfer, let me clue you in about a few things. at140 Sep 2019 #66
Did You Know that golf courses are the fifth most common place for people to suffer from sudden MrsCoffee Sep 2019 #71
Correct, most golf is played on public courses by at140 Sep 2019 #73
Um, no. It was treason. He didn't eek out shit. MrsCoffee Sep 2019 #70
Best part about Warren is how AFRAID of her the right is. sharedvalues Sep 2019 #9
The right is afraid of all the candidates. LakeArenal Sep 2019 #27
I will not griffi94 Sep 2019 #12
Biden- 76, Warren - 70 lapfog_1 Sep 2019 #19
Biden is a status quo candidate griffi94 Sep 2019 #22
The"old white guy" insult is so lazy and cheesy. Which of this immutable characteristics can he LincolnRossiter Sep 2019 #34
He chose his centrist positions griffi94 Sep 2019 #36
Donald Trump is the status quo now. emulatorloo Sep 2019 #79
I agree griffi94 Sep 2019 #81
I like both Warren and Biden, so i'm happy they are both doing well emulatorloo Sep 2019 #82
Yes to what you said. vsrazdem Sep 2019 #56
I'm sick of this "old white guy" line... Joe941 Sep 2019 #68

We all don't age at equal rates at140 Sep 2019 #67
Again everyone has an opinion. LakeArenal Sep 2019 #28
And you're welcome to yours griffi94 Sep 2019 #29
Warren needs more luck than I. LakeArenal Sep 2019 #30
I'm sure she'll take all the luck she can get griffi94 Sep 2019 #31
In rust belt WI poll EW is tied with Trump. Joe is up 9 redstateblues Sep 2019 #32
I'm confident griffi94 Sep 2019 #33
EW looks weak in the rust belt. That's where the next election is won or lost. redstateblues Sep 2019 #35
She'll be fine griffi94 Sep 2019 #37
If people listen to her words, instead of what FOX News tells them.... RhodeIslandOne Sep 2019 #39
Five months before people actually start voting? I can't think of anything less relevant. BeyondGeography Sep 2019 #13
This. cwydro Sep 2019 #59
Maybe closer to the general hurl Sep 2019 #15
And just to stir things, if it WERE Warren, then what kind of VP should she pick?? oldsoftie Sep 2019 #16
I'd be pulling for Buttigieg as her VP. Because... thesquanderer Sep 2019 #47
Military back round would also be important oldsoftie Sep 2019 #49
Good point, vet on the ticket is another strong positive. (n/t) thesquanderer Sep 2019 #52
Clinton Had a +13 Over Trump Around This Time DrFunkenstein Sep 2019 #17
But there is no enthusiasm gap on beating trump. Thats the HUGE difference from '16 oldsoftie Sep 2019 #50
Compare Trump Crowds to Biden Crowds DrFunkenstein Sep 2019 #72
I remember Hillary drawing large crowds. Crowd size means nothing. oldsoftie Sep 2019 #78

👍 Desert Dem Sep 2019 #21
It's not even that...it's Democrats saying who they think will win a given matchup BeyondGeography Sep 2019 #24
Yes, polls of how people think other people will vote are crap. But... thesquanderer Sep 2019 #48
She's doing fine by any measurement IMO BeyondGeography Sep 2019 #53
She is not doing fine in the state polls where we need to win...or in AA community. Demsrule86 Sep 2019 #60
I don't place much stock in them. So, no, Politicub Sep 2019 #25
Yes. After Iowa. crazytown Sep 2019 #40
I would attribute the slight advantage to Biden being his slightly larger name recognition than Quixote1818 Sep 2019 #45
Glanced at some Ohio polls, and that seems to be the case to me. Bradical79 Sep 2019 #88
Nope. Not until the pack gets narrowed during the primaries. Jirel Sep 2019 #57
Why aren't you asking this of all other candidates' supporters? cwydro Sep 2019 #58
Why are we even having a primary, then? Act_of_Reparation Sep 2019 #61
Why arent you in your own thread? ChubbyStar Sep 2019 #69
If Joe is the nom he will pick a great person as VP I am sure, hopefully someone like Liz Eliot Rosewater Sep 2019 #76
Nope jberryhill Sep 2019 #77
we have a very unique opportunity. trump is (bar cheating, which is a real possibility) going to Kurt V. Sep 2019 #86
