WESTERVILLE, Ohio - The Democratic presidential contenders head back to the campaign trail on Wednesday after a debate that featured repeated attacks on surging progressive U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren and exposed the party’s divisions on issues like healthcare and taxes.
The first nominating contest in the Democratic race to pick a challenger to Trump in the November 2020 election is Feb. 3 in Iowa, giving candidates less than four months to make their case to voters on why they are best suited for the job. Both candidates are trying to break out of the middle of the crowded Democratic pack. Buttigieg has qualified for the November debate, while Klobuchar has not.
The debate comes at a critical time, as Biden has seen his once solid lead in opinion polls among Democrats diminished by Warren, a leader of the party’s progressive movement, who has steadily risen over the past two months. “I have made clear what my principles are here, and that is that costs will go up for the wealthy and for big corporations and, for hard-working middle-class families, costs will go down,” she said.
U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders, who sponsored a bill in the Senate to create a Medicare for All plan, said he thought it was “appropriate to acknowledge that taxes would go up” under the proposal.
