At Daily Kos, Laura Clawson rebuts the current CW about Biden:
“Let’s be clear: a 2020 presidential run is more likely to tarnish Biden’s current legacy than it is to end in victory. . . What makes him a competitor now is his association with Obama combined with his status as a white man who radiates folksiness without alienating the wealthy, but that’s not going to be enough to carry him through a campaign given everything else in his record.”
Like so many others, I enjoy Biden’s wisecracks, like to hear him speak, like the way he smacked down Paul Ryan in the 20002 VP debate,
— and wouldn’t give him my primary vote in a million years.
