A recent poll shows that it’s more important than a candidate’s views on issues. I agree. Any Democrat is better than Trump. We have to vote him out if he’s still in office by then.
Pretty clear that LOTS of Dems – whose views are not reflected on Twitter – just want to win & don’t have strong feelings about what winner’s presidency should focus on.

Note: that doesn’t mean Biden or Beto is favored. Voters have different views of electability than pundits. https://t.co/3nRUXE65UB
Views of Dems: They think Biden can win but align with Bernie

Beat Shares
Trump Positions
Biden 32% 21%
Sanders 14% 31%
Harris 16% 7%
O’Rourke 11% 11%
Warren 6% 5%
Kerry 4% 4%
Lukewarm take: the conventional wisdom is right that Biden, Bernie, Harris, Beto are the 4 candidates most likely to win the Democratic nomination in some order. https://t.co/VogcZrTbsf

Caveat to the CNN poll: 59 percent of Dems say it's too early for them to say who they might support.
