Democrats are ready to throw punches but vow debate won’t become ‘crazytown' by blrshepherd & hunterw
MIAMI — For the past several months, the approximately two dozen Democratic presidential candidates have crisscrossed the country visiting key early states and introducing themselves to voters. As they move past this introductory phase of the primary, the candidates have begun to turn toward each other and fire their first shots.
But even though some aides expect sparks to fly, Democrats insist their debates won’t involve the kind of name calling and personal attacks that President Trump made into a feature of the Republican primary in 2016. The top adviser said their candidate would “compare and contrast” while keeping the conversation focused on policy.
“I'm not sure what to expect. I mean, if you look back, historically, Democratic primary debates have been relatively civil affairs, compared to Republican ones,” Delaney said, adding, “I have no problem saying that Medicare for All is political suicide for us to run on this.” “I think it’s probably to be expected. Maybe mudslinging is too harsh of a word. Elbowing is probably a better term,” the source said.“Other candidates on the debate stage have to plan breakout moments or jabs to try and stand out from the crowd but the fact is that Andrews platform and his solutions are what makes him stand out. Andrew doesn’t need prepackaged one liners,” said the source.
The source close to Yang’s campaign added: “Going after someone else on stage may win a headline but I’m not convinced it will win over many voters."
