His 16-point win in Tuesday’s Michigan primary knocked his rival Bernie Sanders’s best chance for a comeback off the board. He scored three additional victories in Idaho, Mississippi, and Missouri, to Sanders’s one in North Dakota. All things considered, Biden has set himself up nicely to guarantee a November showdown with Donald Trump.
It’s no exaggeration to say that onstage sparring is the forum where Biden’s electability argument is the most likely to implode. Where before he’s benefitted from sharing the platform with multiple challengers and could fade into the background, Sunday marks the first time that most exchanges will unfold between two interlocutors.
The “trouble” to which Clyburn is referring gets clarified later in the segment. He notes that George H.W. Bush’s “Willie Horton” ad, which was seen as instrumental in his 1988 general election defeat of Michael Dukakis, originated not with GOP oppo researchers but with Al Gore’s primary campaign. The South Carolina congressman is arguing that the DNC should end the election early to avoid similarly irreparable damage to Biden’s prospects against Trump.

Biden Extends Olive Branch To Biden SupportersPHILADELPHIA—In a largely measured speech calling for party unity after a string of primary victories, former Vice President Joe Biden took to the stage Tuesday night to extend an olive branch to Biden supporters. “I appreciate the enthusiasm and energy of Joe Biden’s voters, and I want any of his supporters who feel lost or counted out to know that there is a place for them with my campaign,” said Biden, stressing that while he and the vice president did not see eye to eye on every issue, they both shared values that represented a bold new vision for the American people. “Of course, I might have occasionally clashed with Joe Biden in the more strained moments of recent debates, but we also worked together for many years in the Senate. At the end of the day, whether you’re a Biden supporter or a Biden supporter, we have the same goal, which is to get Trump out of the White House and replace him with Joe Biden.” At press time, pundits launched into fevered speculations that the candidate’s speech could contain hints Joe Biden was mulling the choice to appoint Joe Biden as vice president.
