In reply to the discussion: Something's died inside me and it isn't coming back [View all]Goodheart
(5,760 posts)31. I truly don't feel all that sad for Joe Biden.
I am thankful for what he's done for this country, to be sure, but he's a big boy. He knows the game. He knows the risks of being a politician. Comes with the territory. There are many people in this country who would have liked one term as President of the United States. He is a lucky man.
And I don't find what he did today the least bit humiliating for him. Instead, he will go down in the history books as a selfless hero. And when all is said and done the final score, head to head, was 1-0 Biden.... by 7 million votes.

Forced because of Father-Time. It was time to pass the torch. Not "age", but time's effect on him.

As I've said many times, I'd vote for Buggs Bunny, to stop that fascist pig and his Nazis,
