I expect they're backtracking because they know that Clinton is gonna get wrapped up in the Epstein mess and they're simply trying to inoculate him or, more likely, themselves.
They're not worried about Clinton doing anything for them these days but rather they're trying to salvage their decades long excuses for his conduct.

It's a classic prisoner's dilemma: The person who actually abides by what supposedly is a common moral standard and speaks out against bad behavior on all sides ends up the sucker. Only a fool Republican would call out his own side to the cheers of opponents while his opponents Democrats who defend their own , far more numerous and egregious, degenerates.

The top 3 Democrats in Virginia didn’t step down and the issues blew over inside of two weeks.

Biden should name Franken as his Veep. It would be the “Ick Ticket”.

If Democrats really think the public forgives him and really thinks he won the seat the first time and really thinks his views are popular, run again for the seat.

——The only way to restore a common standard in politics——
There can be no common standard, no coexistence. There can only be total destruction and death of the progessive movement or a dead America.
There is no either or or we. It is us or them.
Those cowards who straddle the fence will get us killed

The Demonicrats want more perverted traitors in Congress.

A lot of us already had this attitude while Ben was trying to derail Trump’s campaign by going after Lewandowski for trying to get a lefty reporter out of the way.

The Dems have gone so far left that to them Al Franken now seems “middle”, perhaps even normal

Strange. Mayer picked the least sympathetic character possible for rehabilitation. Franken’s humiliation would only deepen if he tried a come back.
To: Kaslin
They’re just having buyers remorse because the two schmucks in Virginia were able to tough it out.

He was only seated after a very dubious election, remember ? Six months counting the “votes” . . .

That’s all we need is another comedian in Congress. I could never figure out why anyone thought this idiot was funny. Really, he was awful at being a comedian.
