First, we have these links, from drudgereport.com:
Then this one:
Any doubt about what\’s going on here?
I am certain that Joe Biden has, by now, reconciled his personal tragedy with his presidential ambitions. If that had caused him to walk away from a presidential run, we\’d have heard about it already.
The only reason I see for him not still holding off is that Hillary Clinton, his only significant competition (Sanders has a ceiling, O\’Malley hasn\’t gotten off the floor yet), keeps falling in the polls without him doing a thing..
Then add in the fact that Clilnton will be skewered by Sanders and O\’Malley in next week\’s CNN debate – again, without any need for Joe Biden to get involved.
The debate-aftermath period, it seems to me, would be a very logical time for Mr. Biden to ride on on his white horse and save the party.
I originally thought he\’d jump in right after Labor Day. But I did not foresee that Ms. Clinton\’s numbers would go nowhere but down – both before Labor Day and afterwards too.
In the (probably paraphrased) words of Napoleon, “Never interfere with the enemy when he is in the process of destroying himself.” Change “him” to “her” and you\’ve got the Biden strategy.
Remember when the so-called pundits were assuring you, smugly and all-knowingly – that Hillary Clinton was “inevitable”?
When was the last time you heard any of them say that?
Don\’t ever expect to hear it again.
