Mike Allen: “Democratic campaigns are secretly shopping dirt on their primary rivals much earlier than usual, reflecting the high stakes of surging or sinking quickly with so many people running so early.”
“One reason this underground game has begun so quickly is that most of the announced Democratic candidates serve in the Senate together. So the open attacks may come later.”
“That leaves an opening for the campaign staffs to quietly stir mischief in the media about the records, foibles and biographies of their opponents.”
