Episode notes
Obama's Legacy Under Attack
- Democrats are distancing themselves from Obama's legacy to appear forward-thinking.
- This makes Obama appear moderate by comparison, as Democrats embrace more radical positions.
Harris's Weakness
- Kamala Harris is a skilled attacker but lacks a strong defense due to her absence of core principles.
- This vulnerability makes her susceptible to attacks from principled opponents.
Biden vs. Warren
- The race is narrowing to Biden and Warren, mirroring the 2016 Clinton-Sanders dynamic.
- Biden's broader minority support could secure him the nomination, especially with potential Obama endorsement.
