Do you want all of those voters, or only the ones who will vote blue no matter how hostile Biden's supporters are?
Many primaries are open. That means that many of those 30% (and before you jump there, no, not me) only consider themselves "sorta" Democrats. Scorn those "sorta" Democrats at the peril of this nation's survival.
Who are the "sortas?" There's no middle anymore. The "sortas" are to your left. If you want to win, you have to show them a reason to believe that something will be better for them. You will not get them to the polls by insulting them, such as by implying they are all misogynistic jerks. Guess what? Many of them (who I personally know) are women, despite the false memes spread around this joint.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
