Well it would certainly solve the problem of runaways, but I'm not sure it would help beyond that. She'd actually have to speak up, and she's not her husband, she's nowhere near the politician or speaker that he is. Also, the current party is pretty far to the left from where it was under her husband, so she'd have to speak out against policies and positions he held in order to win large portions of the base.

I just don't see her even accepting an offer, not wanting to put herself though it. As it stands, Biden is running on proximity to Obama, how would doubling down on that expand support?

I think he tries to throw a bone to the fringe left so I could see a Elizabeth Warren pick or that crazy lady from Georgia that still thinks she's the governor.

What is wrong with America today, that people would support such an ineffectual leader. What happened to 2 months ago when "15 cases would go to zero?" 47,000 Americans dead in 2 months.


And yet, that jackass Trump made the CDC director go in front of the press today to refute what he said about the SARS-Cov-2 being worse this fall. One thing the CDC director got wrong - there's not going to be a second wave. The way this country is going, this iniital wave is just going to get worse and worse, even through the fall. That's what happen when you elect a morn to lead the federal government.
Yep, it boggles the mind, doesn't it ? It is almost as if half of our population has totally lost all reason and morals. They don't care what Trump does, what he doesn't do, and how corrupt he is (and always has been).

I swear, it is like living in an alternate universe, and talking to one of them is like talking to a wall.

Well it should be scary for the Dems. Scary if he wins given his failing mental capability, but more-so, scary that the organisation would allow this shell of a man be the nominee. It is elder abuse and shameful.

Having said that, I can't wait for the debates.

What I love about this is that it's impossible to know if this is a parody or if it's someone being serious. Either way, it's hilarious.

If that were true, then a lot of liberals must be terrified of Trump, given the verbal abuse they heap on him.

Scared of Biden?

IF they have debates, Joe will be massacred, as he cannot speak for more than two sentences without making a mistake. Those who oppose Biden don't want:

1. someone bought and sold by china
2. someone who could not pass a simple cognitive screen for dementia
3. someone who applauds open borders
4. someone who does not recognize china as a threat
5. a corrupt Washington insider


The "scary" guy would be Cuomo. He would probably win.

If you heard him on the radio on Wednesday, it is you who would be scared.
