He's said this so often you could probably make a decent campaign ad of Biden saying to vote for other people. Even his own wife has said there might be other people better on the issues than her husband. Jill Biden urges support for husband even if voters consider their candidates ‘better’ on the issues He's also not committing to backing Sanders, Wapo: Biden won’t commit to backing Sanders if he’s the nominee (edit #2: wow they edited the headline, I legit just copy/pasted the headline as the link. They changed it to "Biden won't say whether Sanders could unify Dems as nominee") edit: oh snap, http://boldiowa.com/biden-didnt-need-to-do-this-to-me/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I saw that, that was a weird awkward chest bump with his fist. For some reason though this comes off as even more uncomfortable. He thinks this sort of thing is endearing but it really...isn’t.

baconbits Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Biden is going to be serious cringe in the general. I legit can't tell if it's going to hurt his campaign or not though. My optimist side thinks Joe can sleepwalk & cringe his way to a victory where my pessimist side thinks Trump is going to run all over him while the media eats that shit up. This country might have to vote for someone who says marijuana makes you stupid and the other thinks it's a gateway drug. "Fuck that" says 48% of the country that doesn't vote...

Massdriver Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Republican Gary Gates handily beats Democrat Eliz Markowitz in Texas House District 28 runoff https://www.texastribune.org/2020/01/28/gary-gates-eliz-markowitz-texas-house-district-28-2020-runoff/ This is a terrible sign. I was happy to see Warren and Biden offer their support along with Beto knocking on doors. Looks like the Texas House isn’t going blue if this is any sign of things to come.

SaysWho? Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 Biden Aides Weigh Pursuing an Iowa Caucus Alliance With Klobuchar Quote Aides to former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. are discussing the possibility of seeking an alliance with Senator Amy Klobuchar in next week’s Iowa caucuses, a plan that would involve a pledge to help each other in precincts where one of them does not have enough support to win delegates. Three staff members for Mr. Biden’s Iowa campaign tentatively floated the idea to a top Klobuchar adviser at a meeting this week, according to Democrats briefed on the meeting. People in both the Biden and Klobuchar camps played down the discussion, which took place at a Des Moines restaurant, and aides for Ms. Klobuchar said they did not regard it as a serious overture. But there is little doubt among Mr. Biden’s allies in the state that his campaign is contemplating such steps, with an eye toward preventing a messy split among moderate candidates on Monday. The Biden officials, led by the campaign’s Iowa director, Jake Braun, asked the Klobuchar strategist, Pete Giangreco, about the prospect that the two campaigns could encourage their supporters in the state to back the other candidate in precincts where Mr. Biden or Ms. Klobuchar fall short of the 15 percent threshold required to reach the second round of balloting. Quote Mr. Giangreco, however, said Ms. Klobuchar was not interested in any such agreement at the moment, according to the Democrats familiar with the meeting, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a private conversation. Ms. Klobuchar’s campaign reaffirmed its lack of interest in an alliance of any kind on Tuesday evening. Tim Hogan, Ms. Klobuchar’s communications director, expressed confidence in her trajectory in the state. This has happened before. In 2004, Kucinich and Edwards formed an alliance. In 2008, Kucinich urged his supporters to vote for Obama if Kucinich failed the first round of voting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be plenty of fluctuations in polling throughout the campaign. You can lead during most of the campaign and still lose (Hillary) and lead for most of the campaign and win (Obama).

SaysWho? Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 I'm always interested in the rise-and-fall candidates. There's still much campaign left, but Kamala, Butti and Warren have all done that, and I'm curious if the last two are gonna be those candidates (Herman Cain and Rick Perry come to mind in 2012) or if one of them will do stronger than expected in Iowa and change the media narrative. Because I can also imagine if someone like Klobuchar sneaks into 3 or 4, that would be a really strong showing, and considering how much media attention she's gotten by making no ripples at all, I think that would give her abundant attention.

I liked his ideas a lot but wasn't sure if he'd be my guy once we got to Florida voting, but after the Hillary fainting episode and seeing how horribly her campaign handled that entire thing, the fact that he turned his heart attack into a laugh line in the next debate was stunning.

Liberals need to learn that sometimes you gotta play the game using the "Chicago Rules". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
