Right- Biden generates ZERO enthusiasm. Dems will not turn out like they did for Obama. On the other hand, BLM and ANTIFA has energized conservatives and scared the crap out of independents.

If I was a Democrat I’d be asking who will really be running the country if Biden wins and what will their agenda be. Biden is just an empty suit who’s being duped by the DNC in the same way as their constituents are being duped into voting for him.
The only thing that changed was his opponents. A lot of folks who had not warmed to him were scarred of Bernie as the Dem standard bearer. And for about 48% of the population, the preferred candidate is 'not Trump.' With that base, Biden needs to cobble together another 2.1%.

I preferred Bernie but Dems are afraid of the socialism label.

Fast forward a few months during a pandemic and everyone wants more “socialism” from our government.

Sorry, but that's not a serious question.

I'm picturing a riff on Eastman's Go Dog Go. Like the potato is in a 1940s open air car and circling a dirt track... Maybe goggles, driving gloves, and a scarf... Maybe a crowd with an awesome chant- Po-Tay-To...

For some reason this post cracked me up. Thanks for your efforts.

The democrats that matter are the ones who walked away after the democrat party left them !!! They won't be voting for the China Joe cardboard cutout being offered as a choice !!!
Even his hair plugs are rejecting him !!!

People love socialism for themselves, just not others. Have you ever noticed people opining about the WPA, rural electrification, housing subsidies for landlords, lottery scholarships, and the like while bemoaning 'socialism.' In truth I see plenty of problems with socialism but also realize pure/unfettered capitalism is also not going to work in this country.
