This Thursday, on ABC, will be the third Democrat presidential debate. Ten candidates will square off in a three-hour debate.
Who do you think will win the debate?
Who do you think will lose the debate, as in, lose ground?
Who do you think might sneak up into the Biden vs. Warren vs. Sanders competition?
Here are the polling results for the month of August. Keep in mind I am only using the Democrat-approved national polls:
1. Joe Biden - 29%
2. Elizabeth Warren - 17%
3. Bernie Sanders - 14%
4. Kamala Harris - 7%
5. Pete Buttigieg - 5%
6. Andrew Yang - 3%
7. Cory Booker & Beto O'Rourke - 2%
9. Julian Casto, Tulsi Gabbard & Amy Klobuchar -1%
A lot of the focus will be on Warren-Biden-Sanders, who will all be on the same stage for the first time in these debates.
About time. Bernie and Elizabeth will probably tag team Biden and really damage him. I'd just like Bernie to pull ahead. Warren is the one seeming to try to have it both ways, trying to appeal to both progressives and the right side of the party. Bernie has 'never run a negative ad', and I'm not sure how well he'll do at campaigning against Elizabeth. He offered to not even run in 2016 if she ran...
So Warren fails the progressive purity test?
Just nominate someone who can win.

I think it is a three person race and the winner will probably pick one of the other two as VP. That's where my dollar is going.
Warren is courting insiders and courting HRC;

Warren is courting insiders and courting HRC; do you seriously think progs will want her? I myself don't.
Why go for the generic when you can get the original, Bernie Sanders?
My hope is Sanders destroys them all and lays complete waste to them like he did in the last round of debates. He has to take on Warren now. Her courting insiders and working with HRC is unacceptable.
I didn't say that. I'm not sure. There are some red flags in how she's trying to appeal to the party leadership and say she's not a Democratic Socialist. She's been my second choice but I'm getting a little more wary. She's still top 3 at this time.
She either does or she doesn't, in the eyes of the BernieBros. To them, a candidate is either completely perfect or absolutely horrible. No nuance, no wiggle room, no imperfections.
Reasonable people will note a marked subjectivity in the construction of these purity tests. For example, a candidate could vote against the Brady Bill five times and vote for the military-industrial complex's F-35 boondoggle, and still pass the purity test.
