Looks like Joe's primary opponents sense a weakness, and the MSM while Democratic, is not beholden to every faction. Suddenly new stories are being recirculated, which is holding one of their own to their supposed standards. Among the stories being noticed:

New York Magazine 2015: “Nine Times Joe Biden Creepily Whispered in Women’s Ears.”
The Daily Show in 2014: The Audacity of Grope: this segment from The Daily Show in 2014.

One theory: the guy is really needy...inexplicably so. Recall the transparent plagiarism of Neil Kinnock biographical sketch as his own, 30 years ago?

Yep...somebody is trying to get him to stay out of the race "or else".
​
 
The crazy thing is this dope is gonna double down...he’s done before he even announces he’s running.
 
It's so wild that we're considering Joe's actions as an election killer when a just a few years ago the country elected an old racist despite a history of sexually harassing women and openly bragging about doing so on numerous occassions.

Sure, if he made it to the General and ran against Trump then the accusations would be a wash, politically speaking. But first he has to win in the primaries against Dems who don’t have such a history.
 
I like Biden (not enough to vote for though), but he's a toucher and you just can't do that these days.

Trump has immunized Democrats to all accusations.

This election season is going to be so funny watching Republicans suddenly realize that all their past accusations are useless now that they elected Private Bon Spurs the sexual harasser.

The fact that we have pictures of him doing this publically just proves how non-sexual and harmless this all was. He kisses a child on the head in front of her parents. He's old so he probably saw that woman as being like a child. He should stop if some people don't like it. It's not a big deal.

News flash: some people are more affectionate than others. That's been known since the dawn of time.

Is it going to be so different from the Democrats who defended Clinton against hos charges of sexual harassment attacking Trump? Being hypocritical and a politician go hand and hand

It boggles the mind that Biden's camp could be so off base, so clueless, so utterly naive to believe that this take-down, hit-job operation is being done by "right-wing trolls".

You DO understand how 1-corrupt and 2-desperate you are making yourself look and sound right now, dont you?

I don't disagree with you but in order to function in modern politics you have to operate in a bubble.

There is no "beholding". Except for your attempted portrayal. You seem to be attempting to obscure objective reality here; whether intentional, or inadvertent - I don't know.

What the hell does the bolded mean? More attempted portrayal?

You're seeing the same journalism that's been practiced the last three years, and many years before that. For some reason, you can't seem to accept that, or desire to propagate a different story.

Your intro comes across as a partisan smear ...

When Democrats defended Clinton they also immunized Republicans from sexual misconduct and adultery allegations. When Republicans accepted Trump they made took it a lot further.

You can't attack a Democrat for adultery or any family values question after you elected a thrice-married man who had sex with porn stars while his third wife was pregnant.

You can't attack a Democrat for military service when you elected a man who not only dodged the draft but used fraudulent medical documents.

These are the consequences of supporting a reprobate like Trump. All other candidates will look like choir boys in comparison.

Agreed. And Dems are and should be running against this very thing with Trump. Which kinda' makes this a mess, even though I'm not sure there's much to it with Joe, since we've seen it all before publicly - to no ill effect.

Maybe to you and other Trump cult members who exist outside of reality. The reality is Trump has been accused by dozens of women of real sexual crimes. He was caught on tape admitting to those crimes (touching women's vaginas without permission). He escaped the draft by forging medical records. That's reality. Have you accepted reality?

It's going to be very difficult to support Trump and then criticize another candidate. You're not going to find a candidate as morally reprehensible as Donald J. Trump. That's reality. Deal with it.

I don’t personally think for one second it is sexual. Some people just grew up with a different sense of personal space. The problem is Biden should know better by now because he has been chastised for it multiple times over the years. At best he comes across willfully tone deaf.

Yeah, that's my take on it too. An anachronism, a fossil of the old days when many were like that.

Name ONE TIME he admitted to touching womens vaginas without permission. Money says you cant and you are either willfully lying about a commonly known incident or you are just ****ing ignorant.

Regardless...that you would sit there and preen and claim that because of how YOU feel about Trump, you can excuse ANYTHING your candidate does speaks volumes of you.

What do Clinton and sexual harassment have to do with this?

It is my understanding they believe the source to be Sanders campaign.

Oh please, partisan...shmartisan...everyone knows the MSMedia is mostly an arm of the DNC, composed of journalists mostly supporting the democratic party. They may support different factions of liberaldom, but its pretty much birds of a feather.

And yep, Biden (like Franken) is being hoisted by his side's own petard, the hyper hysteric ascendency of anti-mashers. So of course it amuses...

On the other hand, it is equally and seriously interesting to observe the peculiar entitlement personality problem of Biden, the nasty pipsqueak whose insecurity has left him less than charming to those who know him.
