    Democrats had better hope their party's candidates heed this advice:

    Democrats may blow it in 2020
    General national opinion doesn’t conform to that of party activists. Ask President McGovern.
    Ted Van Dyk, The Wall Street Journal, Mar 17 20119 2:43 PM

    In their fever to dispense with President Trump immediately, Democrats are losing sight of what Marxists called the "objective conditions" in the country and the fundamentals of Presidential politics. Unless they take care, they will forfeit their chance to regain the White House in 2020 and could return Congressional control to Republicans as well.

    O'Rourke, a Democrat, won 48% of the vote in last November's Senate race in deep-red Texas, losing to Republican incumbent Ted Cruz. In 2017-18, O'Rourke's campaign raised a record $70.2 million in donations. Cruz raised $33.4 million. Millions of Democratic voters like O'Rourke -- but the most recent polls have him in 6th place behind Biden, Sanders, Harris, Warren and Booker. His choice for VP could be crucial to his chances.

    Beto likes Biden for competition – and a woman for VP

    Trump and the Republicans are hoping to win in 2020 by painting Democrats as socialists. Business Insider's Matthew DeBord
    points out that many socialist programs, such as the New Deal, the Great Society and ObamaCare, are good. He also explains why Trump is the "Socialist-In-Chief."

    Trump's accusations about socialism should be taken seriously – because when it comes to business, he's a socialist

    O'Rourke has vowed to accept no donations from PACs or corporations. He seems to be doing just fine without them.

    Beto O'Rourke raises $6.1 million on first day as Presidential candidate, topping Sanders and all other rivals

    If money and optimism can win elections, Beto is well on his way. The latest polls have Biden and Sanders leading but the numbers for Beto and Kamala Harris are rising.

    Beto O'Rourke, in New Hampshire, predicts he could take Texas in the general election

    Biden knows he needs to raise a lot of money to compete with Beto and Bernie but several wealthy Democratic donors have told Biden they aren't willing to help him raise funds this early in the campaign because they're skeptical about his chance of winning the nomination. Biden apparently has already picked his running mate: Stacey Abrams, who narrowly lost last November's gubernatorial race in Georgia.

    Stacey Abrams could be Joe Biden's 2020 running mate

    On September 27, 2017, after years of complaing that California has no "electoral relevance" and Presidential candidates do very little campaigning in California, Governor Jerry Brown signed a bill moving the state's primary elections from June to March. California is one of ten states holding primaries on March 3, 2020, "Super Tuesday." Bernie Sanders is campaigning in California this weekend. Happy now, Jerry?

    Once the site of Bernie Sanders' last stand, California now is pivotal to his 2020 prospects

    Note: This poll was conducted by Fox News, a.k.a. the Trump Cheerleading Channel:

    Biden and Sanders more popular than Trump in head-to-head comparisons
    Business Insider, Mar 24 2019

    Former Vice President Joe Biden and Senator Bernie Sanders are favored to President Donald Trump, according to head-to-head comparisons in a new Fox News poll released today. Respondents sharply favored the Democrats over other candidates in the field, but in head-to-head match-ups, people cast Biden as topping the President by seven points, slightly more than Sanders' three-point lead over Trump. This is the latest in several polls that project distinctly higher favor among the 2020 field for the two Democrats.

    As a member of the Grammar Police, I have to point out that the phrase "of all the 2020 contenders" refers to Biden, not to Democrats, and should not be at the beginning of the sentence. I should also point out that Biden still has not announced his candidacy.

    Of all the 2020 contenders, Democrats have the most faith in Joe Biden's ability to beat Trump
