Biden is Democrat feared by GOP
By Amie Parnes - 09/26/18 06:00 AM EDT
One Democrat keeps emerging as the candidate Republicans are worried about most in 2020: Joe Biden.
Top Republican strategists and party operatives assessing the potential field of candidates say the former vice president is the Democrat likely to pose the biggest problem for President Trump in a general election.
Biden, who has not announced whether he will seek the White House for a third time, would have to win a crowded Democratic primary to get to the general, and that would be no easy task.
The Democratic Party has grown increasingly progressive, and Biden would risk being outflanked on the left by potential rivals such as Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).
But if he could overcome those hurdles, Republicans believe he could appeal to working class voters and liberals alike in a contest against Trump.
