There was no way that he was the most electable candidate. I firmly believe Sanders was the only real opposition to Trump, and that was due to his passion and consistency. Bootygay (or whatever is name was) was a close second, but he was so fake that he would've easily been obliterated by Trump. The dems knew this as well, which is why they cheated Sanders out of the nomination twice.
They panicked and pushed Biden through when they saw Sanders winning early on. I don't think they expected his mental decline to happen so quickly, though. I laughed when the media tried to push him through as the "most electable." As if swing voters will choose for this piece of wet cardboard over the high energy Trump.
Yep. Bernie won the first three primaries - Biden finished fourth in Iowa, and an embarrassing FIFTH in New Hampshire. He was all but finished. How can you be a serious candidate when a blue state prefers four other people ahead of you?
Then the DNC had an emergency meeting, got all the smaller candidates - Buttigieg, Harris and co. to drop out and support Biden. And miraculously, Biden started winning (though Bernie still won CA). Bernie should be fucking livid and ought to be running as a third party to screw them. They've done it to him twice now! At his age, what does he have to lose?

Sanders is no longer principled, assuming he ever was. He sold out.
The fact that Bernie was popular among Democrats does not mean he has more chances than Biden in a general election.
Someone who calls himself a socialist is still difficult to elect for Independent voters, let alone Republicans that they are trying to win over.
I genuinely believe Biden was the best candidate they had, by far.
And to answer the previous poster, blacks and hispanics wouldn't vote for a homo.
