In reply to the discussion: Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC, AGE 77, concerned about Biden's age [View all]DFW
(55,972 posts)13. Now I'm feeling left out that she isn't concerned about me and my age.
In the last couple of weeks, I had to go to Switzerland Saturday and Sunday (Oct. 28-29), then Belgium Monday, then Paris Tuesday, then Lower Saxony Wednesday, then the Netherlands Thursday, then Spain Friday thru Monday (two days ago), when I got home at 11:00 PM. The only reason I wasn't in Frankfurt yesterday is because they canceled at the last moment.
OK, I'm "only" 71, but if I can handle this, then an exceptional guy not even ten years older can handle Joe Biden's job, and he IS exceptional. Granted, not every guy can handle his job, but not every "older" guy can handle my job, either. The fact is, though, that SOME of us can, and Joe Biden is one of them.

Maybe, because she's on a national new program and is at times incoherent, obviously confused and the Whataboutisms

She'll retire when she doesn't get an audience...the blogosphere notwithstanding.

MSNBC is barely tolerable; it'll be a lot better with more Rachels and far fewer Andreas!

Shouldn't today be the day they discuss how the election was a referendum on Joe Biden's policies?

"He's too old, elect the guy 3 years younger who tried to destroy the country, ok?"

Helluva question. And Drumpf is three years younger and NOBODY talks about that. Pretty obvious
