Biden will be coached and trained to be better in the debate. Also, Hillary won every debate in 2016 and yet did she win the election?
Exactly. Talk to any 50+ year old white man no matter what background and there's a 90% chance they hate Hillary like she is the personification of the devil.
Many of the people that protest voted Hillary in favor of Bernie or Trump won't have that issue with Joe.
I really don't think debates matter nearly as much as some people think, it's not like Trump won the debates against Hillary (or even against other Republicans).
The real issue IMO is that, for some reason, Democratic-leaning voters seem to be less motivated to vote than Republican-leaning voters.
How'd that work for Hillary?
Ok everyone hated Hillary, how'd that work for John Kerry?
Bernie is signaling Joe is well aware of what he needs to do. Says Joe's a very good politician.
Looks like they're already working together on some joint rollout that'll be for the general.
As thecoli's #1 Joe Biden stan. His VP list should be long and amazing. Here's my Final three that make the most sense.
1. Keisha Lance Bottoms
Why? Talented politician, attractive, doesn't overstep boundaries like other Atlanta based politicians do, hard worker and good at her job, family-based, will do extremely well with Black voters who are currently Bernie types or Blacks who might not vote which is critical, relatable, and easy to work with.
Why not? No House or senate experience, does she have superstar chops for the job, low name recognition, what's her negatives as she wasn't been attacked to the degree the others on the list have been.
2. Stacey Abrams
Why? Superstar talent as a politician, willing to take the risk, will do extremely well with Black voters who are currently Bernie types or Blacks who might not vote which is critical, relatable, and easy to work with.
Why not? Single, Some people will think she's Aunt Jemima, Lack of high-end experience although she is great within the state, decent name recognition but not great like Harris or good like Rice.
3. Susan Rice
Why? Experience, Extremely Smart, foreign relation skills, Knows how the administration wants to move, doesn't have a bad track record like some others.
Why not? White husband, her son is a diehard Republican, doesn't appeal to most Blacks outside of the Boule, Really doesn't appeal to independents but my guess is those types aren't that important for 2020 considering this is the world v. Trump election. Does she appeal to women voters on the edge which isn't that big of a population this year?
On the outside looking in: Liz Warren, Ayanna Pressley, Amy Klobuchar
Not of interest for me: Kamala Harris, Donna Brazile, Tulsi Gabbard

Yup. It's going to be interesting to see what Biden adopts from Bernie's platform. I know Obama is probably heavily involved as well. He has to be advising Biden to respect this movement or else...

This is how you set people up for another 2016, no projections should be handing a dem NC, AZ, FL, and OH (and WI) that’s a wildly optimistic projection
They living in that same echo chamber that got us Trump in the first place.
There’s no echo chamber, they just showed the chart with no tossups.
That account just does polling and nothing else. No bias there.
Those gaffes did hurt him in the primary. His comment on segregationist lead to him being put in a body bag by Kamala in the first debate. But her record as AG stopped her momentum. Biden started the primary the favorite because he had the most name recognition. Even with that at one point in this primary his campaign was almost dead. Also the Dems were soft on him. Warren could of did real damage to him with the bankruptcy bill but choose not to attack him. Bernie could of did real damage to him by highlighting Biden gaffe of stating nothing will fundamentally change under his administration. But he choose not to attack. Trump and the republicans are not going to be as nice to Biden. That don’t mean that Biden can’t win. Especially since it looks like we are in a economic downturn. But it is not going to be as easy as a lot of poster on here seem to think. I still think this is a 50/50 election.
