We’ve argued for over a year now that liberals wouldn’t be dumb enough to run Old Joe for President again and that they’d trade him in before or at the Democratic National Convention for a younger model with less Bidenomics baggage. Six weeks ago it looked like we were dead wrong – and we sincerely hope we are.
But now we’re not so sure.
In just the last week, three leading liberal political voices have issued dire wake-up warnings that Biden is in clear danger of losing.
First up was James Carville, Bill Clinton’s strategist in the 1990s. He warned that: “Everything that we’re throwing [at Trump] is spaghetti at a wall, and none of it is sticking… We’ve got to try to think of something different because what we’re doing is really, really not working.”
Next was Mark Penn, who served as Bill Clinton’s pollster and now runs the Harris poll. He told The New York Times: “If Biden wants to serve another four years, he has to stop being dragged to the left and chart a different course closer to the center that appeals to those voters who favor bipartisan compromises to our core issues, fiscal discipline and a strong America.”
Finally, there was Fareed Zakaria, one of Biden’s favorite CNN hosts. Zakaria admitted: “Trump is now leading in almost all the swing states” and Biden has to do “something bold” like challenging the left wing of his party to rescue his re-election.
If we were Joe Biden, we’d get a food taster.
