Campaign insiders expect lesser candidates to lob Hail Marys, middle-tier candidates to pose as top-tier ones, and for Biden to fire back this time
Biden is still the center of gravity, and this time he might start taking fire on night one. Photo-Illustration: Intelligencer. Photos: Getty Images It’s time for Round Two. Twenty Democrats will descend on Detroit on Tuesday and Wednesday for the next presidential-primary debates, and the stakes are rising for all of them.
2. Expect More Slings and Arrows for Biden Like in June, Biden will be the center of gravity when he debates on the second night of programming. But this time, he might start taking fire on night one. 4. Lower-Tier Candidates Will Lob Hail Marys It’s dropout season, and not just because Eric Swalwell exited the race earlier this month. This week’s debates are almost certainly the last chance for about half the field to not just make waves but to remain viable at all in the fall.
6. Bernie Sanders and Liz Warren Won’t Scrap If you’re expecting to tune into Tuesday’s debate to watch Sanders and Warren rip into each other, in a battle of the leading lefties, you might want to make other plans. Both sides have signaled that’s not in the cards, because the two senators genuinely like each other, have a private nonaggression pact, and see no obvious political gain in such a fight.
Sanders has been eager to criticize Biden’s health-care policies in recent weeks, and his patience with the former vice-president appears to have dried up. But without the two of them appearing on the same night, there’s a big difference between Sanders actively choosing to draw that contrast on a debate stage, by name, and simply continuing to push his tried-and-true — and, to be clear, popular — lines about political revolution.
