NEW YORK VALUES
Joe Biden, the little-known Senator from a tiny state with an identical political economy as the Cayman Islands, would be a very different campaigner than Joe Biden, recent beloved Vice President and critical component of the most popular outgoing administration in living memory for most voters.

From media coverage to staff recruitment to personal confidence to donor courtship I just don’t think he’s be the same candidate at all.

That said, as powercrazy mentioned, there were always loud rumors of Biden being handsy even when I was doing work related to the 2012 campaign. Plus I think the weaknesses in his record would doom him now.

Living memory should hopefully at least reach back to 2000.

it’s pretty impressive how naked the democratic party is when it comes to giving no fucks about their constituents. all these wannabe #resist guerillas get a kick out of cribbing ‘distraction’ from babby’s first authoritarian handbook but the senate democrats are really pretty great at taking advantage of republican evil and trump buffoonery to advance loathesome rightward agendas

and gently caress all those ‘good’ democrats providing cover gor the indefensible

According to the article tho Durbin seems to think he’d have all 49 in the dem caucus on board?

what are they gonna do? stay home?

look, for every hispanic person in florida dems lose because they sold out their family to the trumpstapo they'll pick up two moderate republicans who appreciate the bipartisanship, and you can repeat that in nevada, arizona, and texas.

the article assumes that the only republicans that will sign on to the agreement are those that helped write it. however durbin probably assumed or was assured that enough republicans would sign on when he issued the statment
