Democratic candidates who go after Obama too hard risk losing support in the primary and the general election, analysis by Harry Enten
Poll of the week: A new Kaiser Family Foundation poll finds 55% of Democrats and Democratic leaning independents say they want to build on the Affordable Care Act when asked which approach to health care they prefer. That's far larger than the 39% who say they want to replace the ACA with a national"Medicare for all" plan. This matches polling from earlier this year which demonstrated a majority of Democrats would prefer to take a more incremental approach to health care.
It seems to be paying off for Biden -- a recent Quinnipiac University poll has him winning 53% of the black vote in the primary. You can see how being attached to Obama directly helps Biden through a question asked by Monmouth University in May. Biden took 44% of the primary vote among those who said it was very important for the Democratic nominee to build on Obama's legacy. No other candidate had greater than 15% support.
