Handwringing over Biden's age has Democrats worried about a repeat of Ruth Bader Ginsberg's refusal to step down
  • Not how I remember it, but I think they were all reaching for straws to explain another failed attempt. So, I wouldn’t be surprised to find done arguing both sides of the coin. Bernie’s only hope was splitting the the rest of the vote. He simply never had a good coalition of Democrats, and his constant insults to the party didn’t help him any.

  • No, I don’t ever remember that. I remember Bernie calling “conspiracy” when Warren dropped out, because he knew he would never defeat Biden in a fair 1:1 fight. He needed Warren to split the vote. This is also the reason Harris dropped out. Harris and Biden were going to take the same votes.

    Biden and Harris are better politicians, because they actually know how to play.

    She’s not just “kinda” famous, she’s Beatles famous in an era of very rapid communication. It would be like The Beatles on the rooftop of Apple Corps everyday, everywhere she went.

    And some of those people will definitely want to harm her.

  • Yep. I get Taylor Swift using a jet. It’s by far the safest thing for her, especially since there are definitively millions of well armed nut-jobs that positively hate her thanks to the right-wing not wanting young kids voting.

    This meme doesn’t help.
