Here is Joe Biden's real problem.....

He doesn't have a campaign.

I'm sure he's organizing one, but he doesn't have a spokesperson to address issues that crop up, and he doesn't have an event schedule to provide an alternative news feed.

It's possible he's waited too long to jump in.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

I'm amazed at how quickly people here are willing to accuse a fellow Democrat of intentionally lying of mischaracterizing someone's behavior for political advantage without actual evidence.

for starting this bulls*it is?

This stinks to high heaven and in the end it will do Bernie no favors.

I am livid about this and I think it undermines the real issues that the me too movement were bringing to the forefront.
