Even with The Donald supposedly energizing voters, Biden still does quite well against Trump, and he hasn't even announced yet. Multiple polls have even shown Sanders beating Trump!
But, as we can see here, people get worked up over the polls they like and then they turn around later and call those same polling outfits (ABC News, WaPo, Reuters, PPP, NBC News, WSJ, etcetera, etcetera) liberal, untrustworthy and so on. Go figure.
The GOP may have picked the wrong person (Hillary) to go after (although she does need to gone after to get to the heart of servergate, and they have done a somewhat good job so far of going after her.)
But Joe Biden may not enter the running, so they may have picked the right person after all...
Very interesting...
This is a duh. Those who vote for the “D” regardless of which candidate bears the title will always but the “D” candidate above the GOP alternative. Right now, Hillary remains the presumptive nominee so she crushes her competition within their common sphere. However, take any one of them against a GOP rival and they will poll better.
I asked my sister, a democrat, of what she thought of the democrat candidates.
“I don’t know. Hillary is in big trouble, Sanders is old and Biden is stupid. But I hate Trump.”
Democrat opinion will vary, but the bottom line is that democrats are very unsatisfied with their choices.
Exactly. Rose, meet bloom.
Besides, who want's to be known as Option-B.
Biden is the most dangerous Democrat if Trump is the nominee.
Around me, Trump is HUGE with working class white Democrats. Only Scranton-born 100% working class family background Joe Biden can take those voters away.
I am one of the 26 pct who will never vote for Trump. That being said I do love how he has shaking everything up
Joe Biden should run.
The concern that he couldn’t build up his campaign is bonk, those will come from rats jumping off Hillary’s camp/ship.
A three-way ‘ratfight between Clinton, Biden and Sanders would be ... wonderful!
If Biden does NOT run (or even if he does), the resulting chaos in the ‘RAT selection process may provide an opening for an alternative choice, perhaps the likes of Martin O’Malley and Jim Webb. They’re both polling at Lindsey Graham levels but in O’Malley’s case, he is generally well received at events and crowds (when he can find one, lol) respond positively to his message.
Jim Webb has some disadvantages, one of them is a book he wrote years ago which described some godawful pedophile images, but aside from that he is perceived as a mostly pro-defense Democrat, he was briefly Reagan’s Secretary of the Navy, and that looks good on almost any resume’.
Oh goody. Swap the Muslim for a Moron.
Well I guess it might be true. He did already pick his theme song.
:Send In The Clowns.”
Until Biden actually has to campaign then the super gaffe generator slams the ground faster than a meteor.
Even in this poll, Trump is far ahead of the competition in the so-called republican party. We simply are seeing a demonstration of different methods, samplings, weightings, etc. All of them, though, show Trump pulling away and Bush dropping like a rock.
A socialist versus a capitalist would be a fun game to watch.
Hillary isn’t dead yet in my opinion, despite the numbers.
The democrats would run away with this if they went with Jim Webb, but they won’t.
Biden is essentially "Generic Democrat" with name recognition at this point. He's got as many skeletons in his closet as Hillary, and once he starts campaigning, he'll be a laughingstock.
No sale. Not even a good try.
Your new Champion!

LoL.
MATHEWS: Mr. Vice President and thank you for appearing on MSNBC and Hardball , Mr. Vice President your name has come up as a possible candidate for the 2016 elections and it seems you are getting very good poll results in your favor. Can you tell me if you would get more aggressive in our national defense if we are threatened by any international threats?
BIDEN: Thank you for asking this very important question Chris and yes, I will take a very strong stance against any country who even thinks about threaten our great country, as a matter of fact, I have written a speech that I will deliver if I’m the nominee, would you like to hear the final draft I’ve written?
MATHEWS: By all means, Mr. Vice President and thank you for making Hardball the first to air your national defense speech ahead of your nomination and I’m sure that other cable and network news will pick this up from Hardball and run with it and, needless to say, our numbers could use a boost. (chuckling)
BIDEN: Well, I’m glad to help you achieve a higher a higher level of relevence, I get all my news from MSNBC and Hardball and I’m sure my speech will go a long way to improve your status in the news community.
(speech)
My fellow Americans, as your nominee, the very first thing I will focus on is the state our National Defense and I want you to know, as president of this great country, you can put aside any doubts whether I will be tougher and more aggressive than any president in recent memory.
I shall go on to the end to fight terror, I shall shall fight on the seas and oceans against terror, I shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, I shall defend America whatever the cost may be, I shall fight on the beaches, I shall fight on the landing grounds, I shall fight in the fields and in the streets, I shall fight in the hills, and I shall never surrender.
Thank you my fellow Americans and may God protect our, soon to be, great country again.
MATHEWS: (wiping his eyes and drooling spit) Mr. Vice President, I have heard many speeches from many presidents but this nomination speech has my whole body trembling with joy and anticipation of you becoming our next president...(breaks down blubbering)
Trump needs to hit the college campii with loud jazzy music and a message for the young. They would respond I would bet.
realistically speaking, a wounded skunk would do better for the Democrats than would Hillary
(not that there’s a great deal of difference between...)
Joe Run Joe! Joe Go Joe!
