U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer is urging Vice President Joe Biden to stay out of the Democratic presidential race and instead support Hillary Clinton, Politico reported on Thursday.
After months of deliberating on the issue, Biden is expected to announce this month if he will seek the nomination, as he did in 2008 and 1988, and a political action committee has been urging him to do so.
Boxer, who was a colleague of Biden’s during his long years in the Senate, told Politico on Wednesday that there was no reason for him to run. She was speaking after a televised debate on Tuesday among the Democrats who have announced they are running.
“I just don’t think there’s a rationale for his campaign,” the California senator said. “I think he should endorse Hillary and go out that way.”
Translation: We want a coronation, we’ve planned a coronation, and, damn it, we’re going to have a coronation so just shut up.
The arrogance of one of the least-accomplished multi-term United States senators telling the sitting vice president that she doesn’t see a rationale for his campaign is otherworldly galling. As any student of American history knows, the rationale for the presidential campaign of any sitting vice president is that, um, he’s the sitting vice president.
Biden may actually be amenable to listening to members of Congress but he’s probably getting the opposite advice from his boss, who remains a decided non-fan of Hillary Clinton.
One thing is certain: after Bernie Sanders decided to avoid attacking Hillary over the email scandal or her wealth, he’s not at all serious about derailing this coronation.
That seals the deal: Biden’s in.
There’s no reason for Joe to run???
Barbara, there was never any reason for you to run for Congress and then run for US Senator. Yes, ma’am, there was no reason you had to run. Why did you run for office????
He will run...and Hillary will feign a stroke.
He'll take her votes and knock Sanders right out.
Obamas Vs Clintons...
Game On...
The only time I want to see Barbara Boxer, Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton in the same headline it would also the word prison in it as well.
Coronating Hillary is like giving Obama a Nobel Peace Prize before he did anything warranting it.
BTW - Obama is the first Nobel Prize winner to bomb another Nobel prize winner.
I don’t know if Joe will run or not. I first thought he would..... now not so sure. I do agree that if he does get in, he gets the nomination easily.
Heck, Hillary might have a real stroke.
Just my opinion, I don’t think she looks too healthy.
And Bill looks like he’s about to go. If you know what I mean.
Love, DNC
Barbara Box-o-Rocks has spoken...
I don’t think he will run, having said that if he does he gets Warren as vp. Then we will know truly if valjar wants clinton as next prez or not.
They of course neglect to mention that Boxer’s daughter is the now ex wife of Tony Rodham, yes those Rodhams.
She has strong ties to the Clinton clan.
Call her Senator, she worked so hard to earn that title.
Or obituary.
THERE IS A REASON THE DEMOCRATS ARE PANDERING TO ILLEGAL ALIENS WHILE CAMPAIGNING.. THE ILLEGAL ALIEN VOTER IS THE DEMOCRAT'S SECRET WEAPON.
Watch for 0dunga's DHS to bus illegals to polling places in unmarked vans.. IT'S COMING.
LOL, ya she needs her underlings to address her as “Senator” as she worked so hard to earn that title. She needs to hear people call her that. I’m still angry about Boxer’s behavior in that hearing, dressing down a general like that.
Pop Pop Corn! Hillary Scandels vs Biden Foot in mouth.
Fun to watch, Failed Policies against Failed Policies, families divided.
Competitions to see who can pander the most to minorities and illegal immigrant (voters)
Flattened Bus Tires, dirty tricks, digging dirt, and Obama making comical comments!
Oh the humanity, (Hindenburg Burning and crashing to the Ground!)
Democrats in fist fights with each other, on convention floor!
Biden found dead at Fort Marcy Park!
This may be a trick.....Joe stalls around and at the last moment, he endorses Hillary.
