The truth is, we need a better Democratic Presidential nominee.

The man is old, has said inappropriate and impulsive things, been handsy with women, and now there’s this story. I believe Biden is not evil, and I believe Reade was harassed in some way: the two can coexist.

But I don’t want Biden as President. He’s not smart, he’s in decline, and he has a questionable history with women.

I want any one of the multiple younger and more competent Democratic candidates!!!!

You’re either a disgruntled Bernie Bro or a Con trying to divide the opposition. Either way, you need to go away. [/quote]

No, I am a left-leaning person who preferred Warren, but who also thinks she's too old, particularly in coronavirus times. So I'm not supporting the person who I think is great for the job (Warren), I wish to support someone equally competent but perhaps less experienced, and definitely not Biden! I never liked Sanders, he's too inflexible, not likeable, is corona-aged and has already had a heart attack. But the younger candidates were pretty good! Why didn't they get traction? Why are we stuck with Biden????

Honestly, if I were a conservative person, I'd be delighted with Biden. [/quote]

Because we need someone who can beat Trump. Polls show Biden beating Trump today.  I liked Buttegieg too, but he can’t beat Trump. I learned a while back that charisma and/or great policies are meaningless if you can’t actually win an election. That’s your choice: sit this one out and risk getting four more years of vile Trump. [/quote]

PP you replied to. If Democrats weren't so craven, we'd have an Obama moment with a new candidate, not a worn-out oldie. I do believe people can turn out for someone who is not Biden, and kick out Trump. 
Of course, it looks like it's too late now, and the DNC is going to close ranks. I think it's a shame.

Biden wasn’t my first choice, but he was the one who got people to turn out in the primaries and vote. That’s why he’s the nominee. The end. [/quote]

+100. I wanted Warren. But this is a democracy and our candidates lost in the primaries by a fair vote. You might be disappointed. But you don’t get to stage a coup based on a conflict-ridden account. Just like in the 2016 general elections, we all need to live with what the majority decides.

Unless we get new info on the rape accusation that shows it to be unambiguously true. Nobody thinks that will happen. Not even The NY Times with its call to investigate the Delaware files. The Times just wants to put this matter to rest this summer so we aren’t still talking about it in October and we can (fair’s fair) open up all the allegations against Trump.

Again, this is a democracy and your man or woman lost the primaries. Why would you undermine democracy in your own party’s primary? Don’t let the cons manipulate you into thinking this is in any way OK. Move on: the choice is now Biden vs. Trump.[/quote]
