As I wrote a couple of weeks ago, Sen. Bernie Sanders's (I-VT) polling numbers have declined for months. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has been the primary beneficiary of his falling numbers, in part, by aggressively appealing to the same radical base that Sanders has been trying to win over. But the results from a fresh round of polls that came out after last week's debate indicate Sanders's issues go way beyond Warren.

For the past week or so we've been treated to a breathless media elated that Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is "surging" in her bid for the 2020 Democrat nomination for president. The problem? Her "surge" seems to be directly related to the cratering campaign of socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).

Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) made one thing clear this past weekend at the California Democratic Party state convention: So-called middle ground candidates like Joe Biden should not become the party's torchbearer come election time because in their eyes the only way they can defeat President Trump is embracing a far left agenda. They both believe that candidates like Biden aren't progressive enough and too willing to play nice with Republicans instead of playing hardball.

If you followed the Democratic primary process in 2016, you probably recall the schism that emerged between the establishment wing of the party, which backed Hillary Clinton, and the insurgent progressive wing that supported Bernie Sanders. In 2020, we could witness a replay of this same scenario.

Oh for the love of everything on this planet. Not everything is about race and your sex. Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), who hasn't even hit double digits in primary polling, lashed out at the media because they supposedly only pay attention to the old white males. From Politico:
“There has been a lot of conversation by pundits about ‘electability’ and ‘who can speak to the Midwest?’ But when they say that, they usually put the Midwest in a simplistic box and a narrow narrative, and too often their definition of the Midwest leaves people out,” Harris said in an opening salvo during the trip. “It leaves out people in this room who helped build cities like Detroit. It leaves out working women who are on their feet all day—many of them working without equal pay.”

Last week, I wrote about new national presidential campaign polling numbers that had Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) taking the lead from former Vice President Joe Biden. Sanders' has a 5 percentage point lead, making it a significant shift, considering Biden had led every poll taken on the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates (outside of one where there was a tie) until that point. This week on the polling front shows more concerning news for Biden, as he's in a virtual tie now with South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg in the critical primary state of New Hampshire:
