Biden

Interesting piece by Jon Chait that analyzes the difference between what the "extremely online" progressive left wants and what the rank and file members of the Democratic electorate wants.  I do think we need to account for the fact that Biden has near-universal name recognition, doesn't have Bernie's baggage and has a positive association with Obama, rather than any intrinsic strength as a candidate.  Still, maybe it's time to temper our idea of the great People's Revolution of 2020.
