What’s at stake for each of the 12 Democrats in Tuesday’s debate via AndrewRomano
Welcome to 2020 Vision, the Yahoo News column covering the presidential race with one key takeaway every weekday and a wrap-up each weekend. Reminder: There are 111 days until the Iowa caucuses and 385 days until the 2020 election.
Tonight’s goal: A plurality of Americans now say they believe Trump's accusations are hurting Biden's prospects of becoming the Democratic nominee. Biden’s job Tuesday night is to prove them wrong — to show on live national TV that he can handle the incoming.
Tonight’s goal: Create another big moment — probably by bashing Trump — then somehow make it stick. Like Buttigieg, Harris is going all in on Iowa; unlike Buttigieg, she’s been unable to gain much traction there. Another star turn on the national stage could win her a second look. But time is running out, and it’s getting harder and harder to see how Harris can mount a comeback with a strategy that hasn’t worked for her in the past.
Tonight’s goal: Continue questioning the party’s leftward shift and arguing that she can win in the Rust Belt. But with Biden in the race there doesn’t seem to be room for another moderate, so Klobuchar’s message will probably be targeted more at the candidates who could eventually pick her as a running mate than anyone else.Status update: At the end of the last fundraising quarter, Booker threatened to end his campaign unless his supporters kicked in $1.7 million over 10 days.
Tonight’s goal: With no discernable path to the nomination, Castro’s best hope now is to re-endear himself to both rank-and-file Democrats and his fellow candidates . In other words, don’t expect any new kamikaze missions.
