He said Biden is like a \u201cscared candidate,\u201d convinced to appeal to his left-leaning base to ensure turnout instead of focusing on drawing new voters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI believe most of the 101,000 \u2018uncommitted\u2019 votes that Mr. Biden lost in Michigan will come home in the end because they have nowhere else to go, and the threat Mr. Trump poses will become clearer and scarier in the next six months,\u201d he wrote, referring to progressive protest votes in state primaries. \u201cBut regardless, there\u2019s a much bigger opportunity for Mr. Biden if he looks in the other direction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The path to victory, Penn argued, is through former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley\u2019s moderate Republican base. Biden has repeatedly reached out to Haley voters since she dropped out of the GOP primary, attempting to bridge the gap for Republicans turned off by former President Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese people are in the moderate center, and many of them could be persuaded to vote for Mr. Biden if he fine-tuned his message to bring them in,\u201d he said of Haley voters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Penn said that Biden should instead reinvent his entire policy platform to more closely match what he believes moderates want by being hard on crime and immigration, doubling down on support for Israel and backing off of key promises toward combating climate change \u2014 all recommendations that would align with many conservatives\u2019 preferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe 2024 election is a rematch, but Mr. Biden should not assume that he will get the same result as he did in 2020 in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Georgia and other battleground states by running the same playbook,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A longtime senior adviser to former President Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton hit the Biden campaign over its strategy in a New York Times op-ed Sunday, arguing the president is siding too much with his base and leaving moderates behind.
