Sen. Coons, comfirmin Joe would serve 2 terms w/ the proviso "if necessary," is Biden's opponent?! InAbLuEsTaTe Dec 2019 #89
Joe Biden told Senator Coons he would "serve two terms if necessary," the Democrat from Delaware... demmiblue Dec 2019 #42
"If necessary?" What? If you win 1 term, it's obviously necessary. Garrett78 Dec 2019 #44
You would think so... but, apparently, Joe has other ideas. Not sure what he's thinkin!! InAbLuEsTaTe Dec 2019 #88

We think alike... only Bernie's got this, so I hope Biden does the right thing & bows out early. InAbLuEsTaTe Dec 2019 #97
Biden has a history of always doing the right thing...so no worries there. But I hate to see you Demsrule86 Dec 2019 #99
