Former Vice President Joe Biden would “win overwhelmingly” against President Donald Trump in 2020 and is the only “superstar” the Democrats could run for the White House, a former Democratic National Committee chairman said Sunday.
“There's only one person I can say who will definitely win the election and has a superstar appeal in almost every state in the union, and that's Vice President Biden,” Ed Rendell said on John Catsimatidis’ AM 970 radio show in New York.
“To me it’s clear-cut: Joe Biden is our superstar,” Rendell added. “If he decides to run I think he will win overwhelmingly.”
Rendell, a former Pennsylvania governor who led the DNC from 1999 to 2001, noted that age might be the biggest factor working against Biden, who turned 75 in November. But in a race against the 71-year-old Trump, who is the oldest first-term president in American history, Rendell said age would only be a number.
“Of course, people say [Biden's] too old. But he's only a year and a half older than President Trump, and he's in infinitely better shape,” Rendell said.
“I don't think age would be a factor in a Biden-Trump election.”
Someone who shares Rendell’s work history recently argued the opposite. Howard Dean, who was DNC chair from 2005 to 2009, said last week that he believes old people such as himself need to “get the hell out of politics” for 2020 and make way for a younger generation of leaders. Dean specifically cited Biden and Independent Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, who is 76, as popular potential candidates who he said are not what the country will need.

Really, this guy needs to layoff the buds

A former Secret Service agent assigned to the Vice President Joe Biden residence claims that the Service often had to protect female agents from him.
Speaking on the condition of anonymity, the agent asserted that, “We had to cancel the VP Christmas get together at the Vice President’s house because Biden would grope all of our wives and girlfriend’s asses.” The annual party was for agents and Navy personnel who were tasked with protecting the Biden family.
“He would mess with every single woman or teen. It was horrible,” the agent said.
According to the source, a Secret Service agent once got suspended for a week in 2009 for shoving Biden after he cupped his girlfriend’s breast while the couple was taking a photo with him. The situation got so heated, the source told Cassandra Fairbanks, that others had to step in to prevent the agent from hitting the then-Vice President.
Additionally, the agent claims that Biden would walk around the VP residence naked at night. “I mean, Stark naked… Weinstein level stuff,” he added.
He said that the men on duty would frequently stand in front of female agents and Navy women that were present “like a damn guardian.” On some occasions, they would make up reasons to get the women away from where he was.
The agent said he was specifically concerned about women in the Navy.
“They weren’t allowed to disobey him at all, but we’d take them away under pretend auspices,” the agent stated.
The official Vice Presidential residence is the Queen Anne style house at One Observatory Circle in Washington, DC, which is located on the northeast grounds of the U.S. Naval Observatory. The property is maintained and cared for by the service branch.
Best-selling author Ronald Kessler wrote about Biden’s problem with female agents in his book The First Family Detail.
“Agents say that, whether at the vice president’s residence or at his home in Delaware, Biden has a habit of swimming in his pool nude,” Kessler wrote. “Female Secret Service agents find that offensive.”
Our source confirmed this sentiment, adding that “it was especially an issue at his Delaware house that he would go to every weekend.”
“He would only get naked when Jill was absent,” he added.
Biden has also long been criticized for his contact with women and girls in photos and videos, and was even referred to as “Creepy Uncle Joe Biden” by the Washington Post.
In a report from the Washington Examiner titled, ‘Joe Biden’s Woman Touching Habit,’ Byron York wrote that he has a tendency to be “particularly affectionate with women in business and social situations, like the 2013 Christmas party at which he embraced reporter Amie Parnes.”

The agent also worked under the Bush administration, and added that Vice President Dick Cheney “never grabbed any butts or breasts.”
We have reached out to a Biden spokeswoman for comment, but did not receive a response by time of publishing.

I don’t see how the RATS get away with not running a woman next time. Their pussy-hat base would demand it. Add “black” to it? “Sure winner!” (to them, at any rate). I think maybe a lesbian, black woman with one leg would be an even better candidate for them.
Hands Up! Don't Grope, Joe!
I believe he would be a better candidate than most others in the DNC who wants to run on identity politics all the time. But running Pocahontas or Kamala Harris does not widen the voting block to get all those voters they lost in PA, WI, IA, WV, OH, FL, etc.
They're Dilaudid.
#OpiateOfTheJackasses
LOL......
So he was on a ticket that beat McLame and Romney. BFD!
This remark surprises me. Ed Rendell is usually one of the few Dems still known to be clear thinking most the time.
Ed, you can’t be serious. Is there no one else in that vast political party to support? Even Howard Dean is admitting that new people are needed.
Fine with me, if Creepy Uncle Joe wants to review his ‘#MeToo moments onstage in front of donors. Let’s talk about all those little girls and married women Joe has felt up in public.
I would love to see creepy Uncle Joe run. Trump might carry 45 states if he did.
He would run on those three little letters: J. O. B. S.
not if his tendencies to molest women and young girls became more widely known. if you go to youtube there is a montage of videos of Biden groping women and children at public events. I am sure that he could not get elected today to any national public office. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xy07yHAgM4E
A loon who looks 90 years old, staples his own ass hairs to his scalp and molests little girls within arms’ reach and he’s a surefire win for the Dems in 2020 ? Yeah, ‘kay.
