Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
There's an Unexpected Feeling at a Biden Rally: Jubilance
-snip-
Voters in South Carolina, even undecided ones, have a deep affection for Biden. And they take their memories of Bidens past as a sign that he belongs in their future.
The comfort runs both ways. For at least a little while, Biden can enjoy not feeling like he has to explain to voters the reason he may fail or why he has yet to succeed, a stream of consciousness blip Biden couldnt shake in between a rout in the Iowa caucuses and his freefall in the New Hampshire primary.

Lifes only gotten better for Bidens campaign since he left New Hampshire early. A second place Nevada finish reminded the faithful not to admit defeat just yet. South Carolinas focused on spoiling the presidential contender with affection that was sorely lacking from the masses in the other early voting states this cycle.
Biden seems like he's coming into his stride again, said former Rep. Carol Shea-Porter (D-NH). Biden had been avoiding getting into the fray as much, she said, but that's now changed.
"It's the Joe Biden that I have known for like 15 years," she said. "And I'm delighted to see it."

He deserves it. Even if he is not my first choice, I would be honored to have him serve as my President.

If Biden wins, do you think there might be a place for a brilliant Mayor in his admin? I think so. Seven languages might be helpful for a Secretary of State, don't ya think?

(32,017 posts)4. I would be thrilled if there were.
But Joe has already telegraphed that he intends to choose a VP who is either a woman, a PoC, or both. I think that Kamala Harris is a good fit for Joe.
Secretary of State would be awesome for Pete, I admit, but international relations is actually where Pete is weakest.
But, we shall see what we see.
