The impeachment standoff between the House and Senate has created a massive headache for the five Senate Democrats running for president, who may have to return to Washington during the climax of the race for Iowa and New Hampshire

There are many ways Elizabeth Warren can continue her presidential campaign from Washington during President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial: Surrogates in Iowa, national TV appearances and on social media.

“There are lots of ways to reach out and talk to people,” Warren added. “But the best and most important one is the face-to-face, handshake, a hug and being able to hold up the children so they can take pictures with you, to ask a question to do a pinky promise. And all of that is lost is if we can’t be there in person.”

“If this were my campaign, I’d want to be right there with the voters to the last minute. So that part hurts,” said Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin of Illinois, which borders Iowa. The veteran Democrat is neutral in the primary.logistics alone will throw the early-state advantage to Biden, Buttigieg, Andrew Yang and Tom Steyer.

“It depends, in part, on how well Joe performs while all of my colleagues are stuck here for the impeachment trial. If he tears it up and knocks the ball out of the park all over the early primary states, then it’s a plus,” said Sen. Tom Carper , a Biden supporter. “There’s going to be more attention on him. … And it should be an overall positive.”
