Every Democrat in Michigan is having the same conversation right now.

Michigan Radio

Even after Michigan Democrats vote in Tuesday’s primary, the same conversations will keep playing out in living rooms and bars across the state. The progressive wing vs. the moderates. Bernie Sanders vs. Joe Biden. Everyone knows the talking points: electability, polling, turnout. You get the feeling any one of them could be abruptly teleported to a cable news studio onto a live panel discussion.
