Notable Quote of the Day ([link removed])

“Yet as more paths have opened for the Biden campaign to reach 270 in the electoral college – with Texas' 38 electors a chance to upend both the race and reshape presidential politics for years to come – it comes with risk. Playing offense by pumping money into these states would come at the expense of resources elsewhere, namely Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, where Clinton's margins of defeat were each less than 1 percentage point. 

For the Biden campaign, it's an electoral dilemma. …

Some party loyalists argue Biden could help that cause by expanding into Georgia, Iowa and Texas, which each have competitive Senate races featuring Republican incumbents. The same dynamics are true in North Carolina and Arizona, where Biden is already investing.

At the same time, Biden can't afford to spend lavishly in states he can't win.”
