Biden's messaging problem
One seasoned pollster is sounding the alarm that Democratic messaging, particularly from President Joe Biden, could be severely hampering the party ahead of the midterm elections, according to a Politico report.
Stan Greenberg, who was a pollster for President Bill Clinton and is married to Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn., told the media outlet that Biden’s attempts to highlight his in-office accomplishments as a way to rally the base has the opposite effect on voters.
"It’s our worst performing message," he told Politico’s West Wing Playbook, which focuses on the ins and outs of the White House.
Greenberg said he has been alerting the Democratic Party that its long-held belief that voters need to hear more about its accomplishments is inaccurate.
"I’ve tested it," he added, noting that Democrats appeared to lose polling leads following speeches by Biden in which he listed off accomplishments rather than policy objectives.
"I’m stunned about how much of the Democratic commentary is winging it," Greenberg told Playbook. "[Republicans are] hitting us on crime and border and inflation."

I think Biden's "accomplishments" suck. He is one of the worst Presidents in history who really has little to brag about in the first place.
