    Agreed, a gap on a phone call is not as bad as looking like a lost little boy on video. :(

    I feel bad for Biden, I really do. I think he honestly believes in doing what’s best for the country. He’s just not articulating that where it counts.

    It reminds me a lot of the Bob Dole campaign, or even the Hillary Clinton campaign, where supporters would go “Yeah, but they’re totally different in private! You should see it!”

    I agree! I should see it! Failing to bring that across in a campaign is itself a failure.

      He’s already been a really good president. It’s not like people need to read the tea leaves to know what he’s about.

      Heck, we already know he’s pro-America, doesn’t take money from foreign governments, isn’t trying to become a dictator, and didn’t give away nuclear secrets.

      That puts him several points above the other guy.
