What you say (Biden stay in the W.H.) might work if he is safely ahead in September In the meantime, some live practice is necessary, in case it's needed.
Border is fine, something for Congress to fight about, but the priority must be the ceasefire. Israel should agree to a "permanent" one, as it will obviously be Hamas to break it and then....whatever comes after. Israel has not come close to completing the job and is without a way to do it.
So sick of Bill Kristol, unable to give Biden the credit he deserves. Everything he writes about Biden is qualified. Go push another Sarah Palin on us, Bill. I know you were a big fan
America doesn't seem to have realized that Biden is a good President and has fond memories of the era when the Presisent pressured NOAA to change hurricane maps.
Political one-liners are extremely valuable later in the campaign. The President is collecting them at each stop he makes. Regarding Trump Bibles in Florida he stated "I almost wanted to buy one just to see what the hell’s in it,” Strategists are preparing future ads that will be directed at Trump and Kennedy. We are too far out. The polls reflect Dems are starting to coming home. Many GOP and Haley voters are trying to decide where to cast their vote. Regardless of individual fear, Trump is in trouble.
I suppose Bill is entitled to his opinion but so are others. Biden's appearance at the Union endorsement was another master class in how to politic. His barbs were funny and biting and clearly communicated why Joe was on the working persons side and MAGA is not. With Trump I like to look at the awkward shock of the folks stuck behind him. With Joe yesterday the guy behind him said it all, the Union folks are behind Joe.
Written by the same guy who believes Biden shouldn't be the candidate (then who? remains unanswered and how would that happen? does too.) Is he suggesting the Vice President, a Black....woman? When the last 15 years has suggested that White men would rather have a king than a Black President?
I suppose Kristol actually writing the words "pretty good president" is progress of sorts. Here's a different take on that headline: Petty Good Writer, Not So Good Cheerleader...Or Campaign Strategist
We know you're for Biden only because he'll be the nominee and he's not Donald Trump or RFK Jr. or some other wacko. And fair enough, Bill. But with the stakes this time around being what they are, do try to curb your enthusiasm a bit so it doesn't seem so, oh, IDK... unseemly. (/S, just in case)
In politics, gaffes come with the territory, especially Biden territory. Granted, there's an argument for limiting his opportunity to commit them, especially if the media is going to blow them up no matter how trivial the context. I would generally prefer that more political surrogates be enlisted for the non-essential communications tasks. But as I said, the guy has always been a gaffe machine. The big question is whether and why his snafus get pounced on more than Trump's, and whether in the end it will matter.
Bill, of course, didn't (still doesn't, I assume) want Biden to run at all. For me the only issue is Biden's physical stamina, which he and his handlers must presumably take care to ration.
One of the *best* things President Biden has done in the campaign is showing up for the Building Trades Union meeting, at the same time its leader released a devastating video denouncing donald trump. That video needs to get major media play everywhere in America, and Biden was smart to help amplify the message. It's understandable that Bill Kristol is likely to be tone deaf about unions. But Joe Biden knows them well, and the Democratic base he needs to consolidate behind him does, too. The union message is also resonating among young people, who are the drivers of organizing efforts at Starbucks and Amazon, for example, as well as among auto workers in red and purple America. Pundits should exercise caution when they question Joe Biden's political instincts.
OK, wait a second, Bill. Are you suggesting that Biden should get a major endorsement, and be invited to speak to the people who endorsed him, and he should say no? Are you saying he should snub them because he’s afraid of stuttering or something? Whose side are you on, Bill?
Hmmm......Biden's "pause" overshadowing all the other news of the day.....really? I guess you must be listening to right wing media outlets who of course, jump on the smallest of missteps. None of my family had heard a peep about this. Way more important things to be talking about in the world and our country.
I miss Charlie ....

@ Bill
America doesn't seem to have realized that Biden is a good President and has fond memories of the era when the Presisent pressured NOAA to change hurricane maps.
So your startegy has some flaws in it.
William, I keep trying to keep
an open mind about your
posts. There have been a
couple of good ones over the
past 7 posting days. Then
you post something like this.
President Biden is a human,
just like the rest of us,
including you. Thus, he's apt
to make gaffes and
teleprompter errors.
He's NOT apt to pull our
country out of NATO, to allow
another dictator to damage
an allie if they don't pony up
the $ he/Trump thinks they
should which he's notorious
for not paying his bills.
Biden's not about to pull out
of a nuclear proliferation
agreement with an upcoming
enemy. I could go on.
Most of ALL though,
President Biden's not about
to enlist thousands of people
and many congresspeople to
attempt to overthrow the
government and kill and
injure people in the process,
so he can stay in power.
President Biden has too much
respect for our Constitution,
his oath of office, our
country, its laws and
people to even consider it.
So, please stop.

If Biden's afraid of the Israel lobby - or any lobby - he shouldn't be President.

Kristol is frequently mistaken, but never in doubt.

Oh come on! Now Harvey Weinstein’s conviction is overturned? WTF?
