Biden

Oct 20, 2020

I want Trump out of there as much as anyone. I’m sick to death of hearing about him.

And the Green Party does poorly when the Republicans are in power . . . because the Democrats then can present themselves as the needed alternative.

But I’ll be terrified until Nov. 3 watching whether or not Joe Biden can get to the finish line intact.

He’s a miserable candidate, as evidenced by how poorly he did during most of the primary season until South Carolina on February 29 (after which his party rallied around him as a viable alternative to Bernie).

Biden lacks vitality and lacks charisma. He often lacks coherence. He rambles, mis-speaks, loses the thread of his point, goes off on tangents . . . and has little of substance to say at his best.

Trump made a big mistake setting up very low expectations for his opponent. By not falling apart Biden has exceeded those expectations. Can this serendipity continue fourteen more days?
