What if Joe Biden was the better candidate all along?

I had preferred to keep Biden, but I have changed my mind in the last few weeks.

But none of this was decided based on the ever-changing MAGA hivemind.
I appears that Harris has earned your vote

I was the one guy that voted for her in the primary for 2020.

Yep. That was me.

I was happy enough to vote for Biden, who was my 5th choice, because he wasn't Trump, but I had wanted Harris because I am a cop and she was a DA.

If she wins, it turns out I got everything I wanted.
 
I don’t see it.
Once you know this is just low quality scarcity copium, it all makes sense. Imagine the Feds took a major supplier out of the ecosystem, and the only people holding are low level peddlers who will never be ready to step up.
 
That makes no sense. 1st you guys said she was afraid to do interviews, now you say she is desperate. Make up your confused minds
I, for one, approve of the desperate flailing on the right.

Yep, desperation is causing her to do thing’s detrimental to her cause. The more interviews she does, the more worse she looks like an empty vessel.
 
No, if she loses, it means more Americans want Trump.

That's the wonderful thing about a representative republic. Even stupid people have a voice.
Which explains why Harris is doing well.

Its the Borg.
The Democrats didn't even get to vote for their candidate. Harris was forced on them, and they don't even care.
You think waiting as long as they did was an accident?? Hell no!!
If Biden would have bowed out earlier - there would have been no excuse to not have a new primary. And Harris wouldn't have stood a chance.
Until Democrats were told to support her - they loathed her. No one would have chosen Harris over other viable candidates. NO ONE.
But look at them praise her and tell us how awesome she is now!!
The Borg.
 
No way he could have won.
That debate performance whether induced by illness or exhaustion from the International trips he had taken just before or both of them sealed Biden's fate. IMO, he would not have recovered enough to win the election.

I was not at the time in favor of Biden leaving the race mainly because the D's were talking about cockamamy processes for selecting a replacement that would have sealed their loss. But look at how Biden has let go the rope since leaving the race. If Biden's debate performance did not kill off his chances, then what would have happened after would likely have killed him as well.

The delegates voted Harris to be the replacement. This forced on them nonsense is just that, nonsense.

And the viable alternative was whom?

And the viable process for getting this viable alternative to the nomination was what? And don't say multiple town halls or a new round of primaries. Both or either would have FAILED.
 
Interesting article from The Hill....


With the Nov. 5 election just over a fortnight away, here is an intriguing thought experiment.


By most accounts, the election is still a horse race too close to call. But although Vice President Kamala Harris quickly assumed the presidential mantle from Joe Biden and put in place an impressive start-up, October has not been particularly kind to her. Donald Trump has closed the electoral gaps, and some believe he is actually leading.

No matter who wins, we have to ask: Would President Biden have been a better candidate and choice despite suffering from the effects of age and 81 years? Further, suppose that the disastrous June 27 debate with Trump had not taken place, or that Biden had been firing on all cylinders that night. Would Biden have been forced to withdraw? And whether Harris loses or wins, some will ask whether Biden might still have been a better candidate.

Conservatives really do have the worst case of dog catches car ever.

That is what your were told, so like the Borg member you are - you immediately accept that.
Kamala Harris was absolutely one of the most nationally unpopular Democrats in the Senate. Testified by the fact that when she ran for President she lost by the largest margins of everyone else, and was forced to bow out.
As VP she continued to not be popular.
But - POOF!! - Biden tells you she is it - and just like that she is the most wonderful candidate in U.S. history according to you guys.

That is what happened. The CT forum is somewhere else on this site.

As for Biden and Harris, he had to be coaxed to support her publicly

I have not seen anybody claim that. Are you lying or just unscrupulous

Biden or Harris. Why do you care who our nominee is. You wouldn’t vote for either
 
You are saying it is a conspiracy that Democrats suddenly changed their tune considering Harris??
Really??
Not saying that at all and damn near impossible to take that from what I posted.

I am saying that what are claiming amounts to a CT.

Didnt have a choice. They already screwed up the first time with Biden, so now their chances are deminishing.

I’ve already fixed the accident. You guys are sooo desperate, you only have typos to argue about. Meaning you have nothing…lulz!
 
Oh, they feigned happiness for a while….that slowly trailed to nothingness.
You're just saying that because you're mad that she's so much more popular than Trump. His rallies are pathetic these days.
