    She’s not much better than Biden. She doesn’t even have age as an excuse.

    Our imagination might be the only place she wins.

      It would be more effective, the spreading of misery, if you went to the local pool and took a large shit in it. You could ruin several people’s day instead of like 3

        You sell me short. I’ve got 15 down-votes already!
        Reality is miserable. Ignoring it is a bad idea.

        She’s not a forgone conclusion.
        There’s a good chance for an open convention. Pelosi is pushing for one.

            THAT is certainly true. We agree there.
            But in this case, she’s pushing for a good thing, so I have no trouble agreeing with her.

            At this rate, I’ll beat that in another 2 hours.

            Edit: There we go! 42 down-votes in 2 hours. Thank you everybody.

      After all this pushing to call Biden too old, the 70 year old rambling old man is gonna look really bad to their own base when he’s up against someone who isn’t even old enough to retire.

        That’s possible.
        I’d hope that’ll be the case.
        She might be able to be coached away from these rambling nonsensical answers.
        We’ll see.

      Man, you try public speaking every single day without making mistakes or stumbling. It happens to everyone.

        Sure. Mispeaking a word would be normal.

        But what she was trying to do was talk about something she doesn’t understand, and wasn’t preped on. Rather than saying some version of “I don’t know”, she starts making up whole sentences of nonsense.

        That’s why I think she could probably be coached out of it. It’s not a brain fart, it’s a choice to try not to look stupid. But it backfires.
