The New York Times Shows that Joe Biden Has an Open Lane to the Democratic Nomination
National Review ^ | April 9, 2019 | DAVID FRENCH

I go back and forth on Joe Biden’s chances at the Democratic nomination. On the one hand, we’ve seen him run two primary campaigns, and they both ended badly. Moreover, given the hard left turn of the much of the modern Democratic party, he could find himself constantly on the defensive about his long record in Washington. He voted for the Iraq War. His past tough-on-crime past could haunt him. And he’s got that embarrassing sniffing/kissing/hugging habit.

But on the other hand, what if the universal, hard left turn by virtually every other candidate opens up a center-left superhighway to the nomination? Most of the other candidates are vying for the attention and love of the Online Left, but there’s an entire other Democratic party out there — the majority of the party that doesn’t live on social media. Over at the New York Times, Nate Cohn and Kevin Quealy have put together a fascinating interactive piece that separates the Democratic electorate into two large groups, Democrats on social media and Democrats off social media. It begins like this:

That's Hillary's path to the throne, and Joe's standing in the way.

That would only make sense in light of the Democrat Russia-gate-Gate needing cover up....

What would Biden see in Michelle? She’s not a 6 year old girl, just a 45 year old man.

Well, at least he’s Constitutionally eligible. Unlike that Senator from California.

Must be a joke that’s so old it’s new again. Never heard it.

Reminds me of When you’re on the way to the restroom your Russian, there European, and finally Finnish.
Heard it around 1963 or so.

Did he not know realize he was snuggling with a dude?

Or did he care? He sure did not sniff Big Mike's hair, or should I say wig?

So in other words,

in today’s Democratic Party,

WOMEN AND MINORITIES NEED NOT APPLY.

Got it.

Is he going to run on a platform of being back 1% growth? The other problem is his constant gaffes and low iq Trump is salivating to run against this

Biden will get wiped out in the General election.

Same was said about Donald Trump three years ago.

Biden figured out how to appease the radical left who might think he's too moderate.

Of all the Democrats Joe has the best chance to win. The fractious new AOC types will be pushed to the background. Hillary is a proven loser. Joe hasn’t lost any elections and could attract the most independent voters. If this happens watch who the VP pick is because he (or she) is the one. Joe won’t make it through his first term.

No one here will vote for him but all the Hillary voters will, and the dead ones and illegals will be strong supporters. Joe is dangerous because of this.

Joe hasn’t lost any elections ...

He ran for president in 1984, 1988 and 2008 and performed poorly in the primaries each time.
