Given Tara Reade and more importantly, Joe's....not so great interviews lately....stay or go with Joe?

If you're a Dem - should Joe go? "Unexplained medical condition" or fall on his sword or whatever? Would the ensuing fight to be the nom be worth it to have someone somewhat coherent and w/o the baggage to go v Trump?

If you're a Con - do you want Joe to go? Would you rather face someone else or is Joe is best candidate to run against for Trump?

We've often heard that a person would be willing to vote for a vegetable over candidate X - this year, we might just see this happen

And BTW - Stacey Abrams wants the veep job waaaaaaaaaaaay too much.

We’re stuck with him. Just imagine the reaction of Bernie’s people if Biden
was replaced by anyone but Bernie.

And Stacey’s not the one. James Clyburn said so and I suspect he has a veto
over the choice.

As a reluctant Repub / frustrated Libertarian, Joe is the best opponent. “Don’t worry about Joe having his finger on the button. Worry about him not being able to find the button.”

Every ‘VP’ candidate has baggage. Even Amy, who strikes me as the type to overanalyse/second guess too much.

Joe/Stacy=400 EV for DJT.

The Dems managed to find the only candidate worse than their last.

I can't imagine what Abrams has done to deserve consideration.

no, there isn't any candidate worse than the last. Biden, for all his dementia and this credible story, is still better than that woman.

me, either. Her claim to fame is she lost a close statewide race, just like Beto did, which got him nowhere. And now I see she's a hypocritical liar. If Biden, or maybe Jill Biden, picks Abrams for VP then it'll be a net negative.

BTW, this should be a good race, Jill Biden vs Jared Kushner. I wonder who'll win?

No, she still claims she won. She considers herself to be governor-in-exile.

She has less chance than Hillary.

I do too. I can live with either winning. Trump because I like the policies
that emerge from his administration, Biden because at least that would
mean Trump is gone.

I’m beyond caring. It’s clear to me anything can and will be attacked and anything can and will be defended. The days of being amazed over who can make it in are over. Joe has quite the hold on some people, I expect he’ll win with a full media backing.

On this we agree....Im very puzzled by her profile right now.

Brian Kemp owned her. Still does.

He needs to go, but won't until at least Bernie is finally subjugated.

The fact is that I don't believe the Fall election takes place in the first damn place.

And you think that's not what the DNC *wants*?

They already threw one election with Hillary. It's clear what the DNC's vision of the Democratic Party is -- a center-right cooperative party (probably even right of Reagan!) with the goal of a new America without so much "baggage" like the poor, immigrants, LGBT's, homeless, etc.

I disagree. I think they DID IT. I think they actually found someone worse than Hillary -- the dementia, the clear path that he's basically just Trump with a D after his name, he's a Pussygrabber too, etc.

what makes a candidate good or bad is whether people will vote for him/her. That's why Biden is a better candidate than Hillary. I don't disagree with your characterization of Biden. Still, he'll do better than....that woman.

I’m not sure I agree.
