Bye-Bye Biden - The Post & Email thepostemail.com/2019/06/22/bye…
Joe Biden is a very flawed candidate. While he was elected to the United States Senate at the age of 29 and served for 6 terms, Biden has not done well as a national candidate. He ran for President twice, in 1988 and 2008, and bombed both times, receiving less than 1% of the vote
With a lifetime in politics, Biden is surprisingly out of touch with the Democratic Party today. It is hard to believe he did not realize that extolling his ability to work with segregationists, who were both Democrats, would cause a firestorm of criticism from other candidates.
The young progressives driving the Democratic Party today are not interested in a “pale, stale male” as their nominee. Despite his name recognition and lead in the polls, he will have a hard time withstanding the attacks which will come his way.
He will continue to move further to the left politically, apologize for previous statements and attempt to pacify his critics. None of this will be enough to secure the nomination of a party led by young progressives who are eager for change and have seen enough of Slo Joe Biden.
