WILL SLOW JOE MAKE IT TO THE PRIMARIES?
Powerline ^ | August 9,2019 | JOHN HINDERAKER

Posted on 08/10/2019 7:55:36 AM PDT by Hojczyk

Joe Biden remains on top of the Democratic presidential polls, which can only be taken as an indication of the weakness of the field. “Slow Joe” Biden has never been intelligent, and at 76 years old he is far from the top of his game, such as it ever was.

Among other things, Biden has longstanding problems with race. Biden is famous for his gaffes, which are usually written off as signs of his good-old-boyness. But a striking number of those blunders have involved race. Some are well-known (Barack Obama was “The first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy”), some less so (“There’s less than 1% of the population of Iowa that is African American. There is probably less than 4 or 5% that are minorities. What is in [Washington, D.C.]? So look, it goes back to what you start off with, what you’re dealing with”).

Last night, Biden stepped in it again, sounding a theme that he has tripped over more than once before: “Poor kids are just as bright and talented as white kids.” Hoo boy. It’s a good thing for President Trump that he never says anything like that!

Like Hillary Clinton (although for somewhat different reasons), Joe Biden will never be president. He simply isn’t smart or competent enough to mount a successful campaign, as his prior runs have demonstrated. And at 76, he isn’t getting any better. If I were a Democrat, I would be deeply concerned that my party doesn’t have a candidate who, so far at least, can match Slow Joe in the polls.

We Conservatives, Freepers, Tea Partiers, Deplorables, et. al. have a DUTY to make sure Slow Joe crosses the finish line first.

I’m waiting for Michelle Obama. Although I would hate her as president, I would love to see Hillary’s reaction to her.

I said on day one he wouldn’t. I see nothing that will change that prediction.

Comedians everywhere, myself included, are begging ‘Ol Joe to stay in the race. Think of all the gaffes to come!

Elizabeth War Beak Warren wins by a nose.

Which is fine. I think Trump is prepared for either.

************

The way things are going for the Dems she has reason to be optimistic. And with Epstein’s sudden departure there’s no need for her to worry about revelations of Bill’s dalliances.

Hilary is pretty much where she wants to be right now in terms of what SHE perceives to be her political viability. She would love to arise as the “savior” of the party.

All that said, she’s so flawed and disliked I don’t see that happening.

NO, furthermore, I don’t believe any of the current candidates will be the nominee.

Slow Joe will get the nomination.

Then he will get creamed in the general by the Donald.

Then there will be no moderates-if there are any, left in the democRAT party. The communists/nazis will point to that loss as proof the democRAT party has lost touch with its base.

The GOP will formally split into two factions-not that they havent already. It’ll be the RINO faction, and the conservative constitutional faction.

I guess if we want our first Alzheimer’s president, he will.

Dude is missing a considerable amount of brain matter.

Harris is the only one who has all the boxes checked, thus she will be the nominee.

Come back after I’m proven right, I like Corona Extra.

I think Michael and his husband are lying low in preparation of what could be a painful situation ahead.
