My running joke with a couple friends is that Biden likely doesn't remember if he successfully completed a BM this morning, so claiming he doesn't remember Tara Reade when he likely also doesn't recognize his wife half the time is not hard to believe. What is hard to believe is that 'anyone' would think running this drooling fossil as the Dem nominee would be a good idea. Ah, but mental illness does run rampant in that party....

| But, in this instance, the Sanders supporters are the wild card. Sanders can't win the Presidency, yet, he did well in the primaries, and his jilted lover clueless fanbois are gonna turn the Dem convention (or whatever sort of event they plan to have) into a circus. They'll say "If not Biden, then Sanders" but you know that even the DNC has figured out that Sanders can't win. So, then what happens? I'll tell you what happens- theater worthy of pay-per-freaking-view. |

(Normally I'd consider a survey to essentially be a poll, but in this case we're hearing what the 'political operatives' [lobbyists] think they need to make an effort to say publicly.) quote: Biden Campaign Doesn't Consider Latinos 'Part Of Their Path To Victory', Political Operatives Say
Kathryn Krawczyk, The Week, 5/14/2020
Former Vice President Joe Biden's campaign has received some scathing reviews from Latino political experts.
Biden's primary campaign had a distant, if not "tense", relationship with Latino voters as he not only neglected to reach out to them but never quite rectified "his connection to the Obama administration's aggressive deportation policy", Politico reports. Biden became the presumptive Democratic nominee "in spite of, not because of" his Latino outreach, Politico writes, but more than 20 Latino political operatives say his luck may not hold in the general election.
Around 32 million Latinos are expected to be eligible to vote in the U.S. this fall, making them the largest nonwhite voting bloc in the country. Their votes are especially valuable to Biden in potentially flippable states such as Arizona and Texas. But the Biden team doesn't seem to be acknowledging this fact. "I do not think that the Biden campaign thinks that Latinos are part of their path to victory," Jess Morales Rocketto (sic - IC), the former digital organizing director for Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign, told Politico.
To be fair, the COVID-19 pandemic has made it all but impossible for the Biden campaign to reach Latino voters through in-person canvassing, and the campaign's dwindling cash supply hasn't helped it execute digital efforts. Yet Biden hasn't even talked to, much less gotten and endorsement from, Julian Castro, the only prominent Hispanic candidate in the 2020 race, nor has his campaign appeared to ask for help from Latino lawmakers and strategists.
"Right now I can't tell what their strategy is with the Latino community. I just don't see it," an anonymous Latino lawmaker told Politico. "They have a lot of people out there willing to help, but they're not engaging" those potential recruits.
http://www.yahoo.com/news/bide...tinos-143056489.htmlHmmm. Maybe Joe's thinking the Latino voted didn't win Hillary the White House in 2016? Given his sorry-assed performance in the southwestern US, maybe he's thinking he just isn't going to bother running there very aggressively? Or maybe a few Latino pols are looking for a little power, influence, facetime in the press and perhaps some walking-around money? No matter how you slice it, it does make the Biden campaign look a bit more troubled. |

| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Yes, but in true Biden form, this was in response to a question about Tara Reade.
