The same can be said for all the candidates. The GOP will make sure voters all know about Sanders' glad-handing with Castro and the Sandinistas, O'Rourke's drunk driving, etc.. It will hurt him with some voters, and others won't care.
Looking at the numbers among Democrats - a drop of less than 2 per cent support for Biden once his handsy history was picked up as a story - I doubt it will cause much of a stir in the wider voter-base. Moderates and independents care less about that stuff than liberal Democrats do.
