Joe Biden Still Running, Prepares to Launch Campaign in Philadelphia After Easter

He's wasting his time.

Is he, comrade? How’s the weather in Moscow?

Yes. R3, only a Russian would want the Democrats to nominate a person under the age of 75! You'd have to be a Russian bot to not wish to vote for a creepy old geezer!

Just rub 'em by the nose. Just inhale 'em by the hair.

This shows how out of touch he is - waiting until almost May??! He's DOA.

He wants to make a big splash as the last entrant.

Joe/Pete ticket!

I will not vote for him. I didn’t support him before all these allegations, even though I knew they’d be coming, along with hundreds more.

Good. Repug hit job won’t stop him. Timing very convenient.

Biden, Beto, or Bernie, still calling it.

[QUOTE]We are now witnessing a feeding frenzy over Joe Biden’s penchant for sometimes-unwelcome public displays of affection. Mr. Biden, who is famous for overly tactile friendliness, has been dealing with two women’s charges that he upset them by greeting them far too intimately. Pundits are now discussing whether these actions should end Mr. Biden’s (as yet unannounced) presidential candidacy and even declaring point blank that he is the wrong man to succeed President Trump.

[QUOTE]Charges about inappropriate touching must be heard and evaluated. But the more difficult question for journalists is whether these charges should become grounds for feeding frenzies — all-consuming, multi-day stories that, by virtue of their blanket coverage, signal to audiences that they outweigh everything else about a candidate.

Biden isn't perfect, no one is, but if he wins the nomination we should all support him and vote for him. To do anything less is to be a trump supporter.

If he wins, Biden will be an excellent president and will go far to heal this nation.

That said, I haven't settled on a candidate to support yet.

[quote]He wants to make a big splash as the last entrant.

Not enough time to raise money and find people to run your campaign as they're already working for other people. He also won't be getting senate endorsements. This has been discussed a million times by experts. He stands no chance.

They've already handed Trump his nickname - "Gropin' Joe!"

R15, It was in a Politico article that he's already hiring people. And I believe an exploratory committee allows you to fund raise before entering the race.

[QUOTE]They've already handed Trump his nickname - "Gropin' Joe!"

Joe will have plenty of nicknames he can choose for Trump, but I doubt he’ll even stoop low enough to select one.

I'm so looking forward to it.

They can’t derail Joe.

Wow, R11, what a difficult call to make!

[quote]Is he, comrade? How’s the weather in Moscow?

Get a grip. There are plenty of reason besides being a Russian troll to think that a 75-year-old man with new "he groped me" stories rolling out every day isn't going to get far as a candidate. I will vote for Biden if he gets the nomination, of course. But at this point, I don't think he's going to get it.

[quote]R15] It was in a Politico article that he's already hiring people

Yeah, he already has a whole team in place.

[QUOTE]e are plenty of reason besides being a Russian troll to think that a 75-year-old man with new "he groped me"

None of these accusers are saying Biden groped them, you rotten LIAR!

Biden is touchy-feely. That approach was pushed by Humanistic Psychologists in the 60s, 70s, and 80s.

Biden isn’t done yet but that’s because only women have accused him. If one of those children he got handsy with comes out and says it made them uncomfortable, he will be completely done. There will be no coming back from that.

Okay, r4, "touched inappropriately," then. Calm yourself; you know perfectly well what I am talking about.

Thursday.

You should have stayed dead.

He sucks more than any of the others.

I will not vote for someone this old who is from a different era.

If he’s the nominee... I vote Trump.

You out yourself as a pedo or rapist by supporting this fuck. Easy for all to see.

[QUOTE]If he’s the nominee... I vote Trump.

Well you can fuck right off, then.

[quote]Joe/Pete ticket!

They could call it "Bide the Butt, Trump"

He waited too long...Bernie and Mayor Pete have pulled ahead

Nonsense. Joe is still tops, especially in the battleground states of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan that we need to defeat Trump, and his popularity will only rise further once he officially enters the race.

Biden will implode. Bookmark me. He won't be getting the endorsements or money needed. He indeed waited too long and he's expecting a coronation. I'm betting on Pete to win, especially once the debates happen.

You’re wrong on so many things there, R36. This crowded field is actually perfect for Joe. The less attention that’s on him, the better. And then once he gets the nomination, all the general election attention will be on Trump—another good situation for Joe. He’ll just get to quietly plod along, which is the best fit for him.

Joe’s gaffes will do him in and then he’ll have to suffer Trump’s taunts for eternity.

I don’t care about a Biden candidacy.

Joe’s gaffes will be seen as harmless when contrasted against Trump’s criminality.

No it won’t. Biden’s headed for an avalanche of Congressional record press scrutiny.

Joe Biden's racist busing controversy alone will kill him.

None of the other candidates can touch Joe not even Bernie. If Joe is not the official nominee count me out and I am not alone. Most blacks like myself won't mind uncle Joe regardless of the inappropriate touching and alledged racist video.

[QUOTE]No it won’t. Biden’s headed for an avalanche of Congressional record press scrutiny.

😂 Sure he is.

The Trump administration will continue to take up all the oxygen just like they’ve been doing. Whenever anything comes up, all Joe will have to do is give it a week or two before it’s forgotten and replaced by the latest Trump embarrassment.

While I'm supporting Kamala, I have to admit that none of the candidates comes close to being as qualified as Biden. Especially not Bernie, who can't even be part of the Democratic Party he always votes with because he's such a know-it-all crank. That is not leadership. That's "look at me."

Bernie isn’t qualified to run a car wash, let alone the federal government of the United States of America.

[quote]Joe is still tops, especially in the battleground states of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan that we need to defeat Trump, and his popularity will only rise further once he officially enters the race.

Right, and he will pull further away from Bernie as the legion of candidates starts falling away. With Bernie, if you are a democrat, he's either the second coming or the devil. Maybe some of Warren's supporters would go to Bernie when she pulls out, but most of the candidates are more like Biden than they are like Bernie.

It's actually surprising, how Bernie is in second place to a guy who's not even running yet, considering he won 40-something percent of the vote in the primary. It's an indication of how many democrats see him as having played a counterproductive role in 2016.

I like him better than Bernie, that's for sure. I think how well Joe does will depend on who he picks as his running mate.

If Joe can run, so can Hillary.

Hillary is a disgrace for that sham of a campaign she ran. She knows she’d lose badly if she entered this race and doesn’t want to suffer the embarrassment.

Joe is waiting a long time to launch his campaign - I suspect he's hoping that all the accusations will blow over in the meantime. He'll initially get some good response but I'm not sure if he'll be the nominee. He's carrying around too much baggage.

We will all vote for him. If not? Have fun with more Trump,

For the record I love Pete.

[QUOTE]I suspect he's hoping that all the accusations will blow over in the meantime.

They’ve already blown over.

Trump has done far worse to women than Biden but the Republicans never apologize and are dismissive while the Democrats are too timid and cave in at every little rumor.

You’re right, R54, except for Joe. He was not timid and did not cave when asked to apologize.

He's going to Pittsburgh, not Philly.

r50: She had nearly three million more votes than Trump.

Shucks.

I would only vote for Biden if Pete were to run as vice. If not, I will vote for Trump.

😂 Nice trolling, R59. Go to bed already.

It was a pleasure blocking R59.

Duck you r61 and r60. You are the reason Trump will win 2020. People are so sick of you pseudo liberals ruining our freedom of speech and being thought police.

**Fuck you

Duck you too, motherducker. Matter fact, duck your whole ducking family.

I hate you R64

I'll vote for whoever the Dems nominate, they just better be able to beat Trump.

You need more than just keep saying we need to beat Trump. Get someone with ideas and energy. Biden depresses me.

[quote] People are so sick of you pseudo liberals

You're the one who said you were voting for Trump, dipshit.

What if Jill Frankenstein of the Green Garbage rises up from her grave and splits the votes again? What can we do about her?

Just what we need. An Octogenarian President with vomitous of the mouth. No Biden!

Biden is more photogenic. Trump must be terrified to stand next to Old Joe during the debates.

R69: She's not running again. Neither is Gary Johnson. So problem solved.

Who is planning on running for the Green Party?

Says who, r72?
