The long term Republican plan to gradually (until recently) pull the Democratic Party to the right is unabated. Republicans have moved the chains with determination yet we feel that apparently any candidate other than Biden is too risky. After Trump? Really?

They are succeeding in their quest because we feel that regardless of our candidate, we can’t put up a strong enough argument to get anyone but Biden elected. We are not willing to place our strong beliefs on the face of any of our candidates. So, we take the safe way, which arguably does have merit in the all out war that we are engaged in, but still illustrates the weakness of our thinking.

I felt from early on that Biden would be the nominee. I can only hope that he selects a cannonball for VP.
