"The entire Biden agenda that has so far passed in Congress is almost entirely centrist.." Exactly. But what about the Biden agenda that didn't pass Congress b/c it was too far to the left? You don't think that colors voters impression of Democratic candidates?

How many people do you know from High School who are in their late sixties, early 70's who have to scramble to get food on the table every night? Who wouldn't have any healthcare if not for Medicare? Most of the people I went to HS with in Appalachia are in that boat. So to me the 'Build Back Better' agenda sounded just fine. It's about time America had a little bit more of the old fashioned FDR diet again. Half of my HS class is dead. Most of them died of poverty. They didn't need to die like that. Our area was decimated by Reagan and his idiotic 'Trickle Down' economics which decimated every single local business in the Poconos (PA.). I highly resent ALL Republicans because I have seen what their policies do to real people.
