So it’s pretty obvious that the high muckity mucks of the Democratic party want Biden to happen, just like they wanted Hillary to happen. It seems like this is swimming the wrong way in a rip current to me. Why try to take a colorless candidate like Biden, or even like in 2016, an unpopular candidate like Clinton, and back them to the exclusion of all else?
Ok, last time it was at least partially because they arrogantly thought there was no way the other guy could win…maybe, and maybe this time they are again misreading the depth of fed-up-atude in the voters. Health care, wage gap, student debt, drug cost, energy…Republican or Democrat, all promises and band aids.
Why back Biden? My bet is that he is the candidate who has the most to lose by changing the status quo. He’s gotten money from all the major players, he’s been at this a long time and has never really stood up to big lobby. If you let Bernie Sanders, or Elizabeth Warren run and they win, the apple cart that has been political funding for decades might get upset. Make no mistake, both parties are working for their parties not the people, they are competing for who get the most lobby slush, not to clean it up. So what the Democrats what is a nice friendly, middle of the road, well know face with few scandals and is fully invested in the corporate influence machine of the party…not some reckless reformer who might kill the golden goose…and pay no attention to those torches and pitchforks.
Oh, The Places We'll Go...
