He's a great candidate (for us).

What Super Tuesday tells us is that a lot of Democrats would rather risk losing to President Trump with Joe Biden than allow a socialist like Bernie Sanders to hijack their party.
That’s good for America, but it’s also a treacherous Hail Mary pass for the party.
The 77-year-old former vice president showed why, moments after taking the stage in Los Angeles on Tuesday night: He mistook his wife for his sister.
“They switched on me,” he tried to explain.
He went on to give a good speech about healing the nation, and dutifully kept to the script on his teleprompter.
But then a protester leaped on stage and Biden’s wife, Jill, 68, instinctively stepped between him and the lunging vegan, grabbed the woman by the wrists and shoved her away.
It was a heroic performance, but it also showed Biden’s peculiar passivity: He just stood there, not reacting, as his wife went into physical battle for him.
When the scuffle was over, he placed a protective arm on her back, but it was as if he didn’t realize what had just happened.
The truth is that anyone who has seen Biden up close knows he has some sort of cognitive impairment. He often seems bewildered, can’t remember what state he is in, if he’s running for the Senate or the presidency or even whether it’s Super Tuesday or “Super Thursday.”
On Monday, in Texas, he forgot the words of the Declaration of Independence mid-sentence, substituting “the thing” for God.
“We hold these truths to be self-evident,” he began. “All men and women created by the [pause, consternation, hands waving] go, you know, you know, the thing.”
It’s sad to see the fear in his face when he suffers these “senior moments.”

How many days a week do you think sleepy Joe wakes up not knowing he is running for President?? I say 3
Senior moments my a$$! He’s got DEMENTIA!
He's a great candidate (for us).
Exactly!
Now Joe can do it...
Jill Biden: Have a nice day dear..and don’t forget you’re running for President.
Quid Pro Joe needs a nursing home, not the Whitehouse.
It is sad that the DNC will parade this man out there and use him.
It is like they are ridiculing the elderly and the negative affects of age that so many suffer.
Uh-uh. I've been around too long and had to listen to this bag of pus - may he drown in his own drool on national TV.
“Karpov”
Are you “R.” Karpov?
Could the DNC be so cynical that they wait for a major Biden gaffe and replace him with Jill?
Let him run - IMHO he’s an easier opponent than Bernie. Wait till Trump does “Because you’d be in jail” REDUX
I have my father in Memory Care and know from experience what dementia looks like......Biden certainly fits that bill.
Just because he has Alzheimer’s doesn’t mean he shouldn’t be President! C’mon man!
The plan is to put Hillary on the ticket as VP and he will be unceremoniously shoved aside a month after inauguration...
Biden is just the new narrative. He is, and has always been, a terrible candidate. An idiot. Constant gaffes and outright lies. Add early stage dementia and you get the worst candidate in my lifetime.
Bernie will be the nominee. Count on it.
Want a possible
Joe picks Hillary as Vice
Exit stage left via the 25th amendment
Joe avoids jail and Hillary breaks two glass ceilings
First woman Vice and first Woman Pres
Dems avoid socialism by name and if not and repubs
get the house, dems are done for a decade
Key : watch Obama
Biden was Obama’s VP. Why Hillary count for anything? She’s nothing now. Done. Finished.
I still say this is just another temporary tactic in Operation Chaos 2020, designed to lead to a brokered convention and the installation of an 0bama / Soros ‘Dark Knight’ nominee or Hillary ‘to save the party’.
