Thanks for the laugh.

Please link to any negative campaigning Biden has done. Be sure it's this campaign and make sure it's not from a right-wing source.

I'm here til midnight. Since your statement means you have sources to back up your hilarious statement, I'm sure you can do it right away.

And it must be a a slur and not vetting. And it must be against a Democrat.



ONLY!!! 2019 and beyond.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

So is attacking Democrats... R B Garr May 2019 #17
Good One!! emmaverybo May 2019 #21
It isn't attacking a Democrat to ask them to provide specifics and all the more so pnwmom May 2019 #51
I'm pretty sure that comment was about defending Sanders. R B Garr May 2019 #60
No, serving under Obama doesn't tell us anything about where Biden stands NOW. pnwmom May 2019 #64
Sure it tells you where he stands. He was Obama's VP R B Garr May 2019 #69
Why doesn't he have any policies on his website? He's not saying anything substantive pnwmom May 2019 #74
Probably because he doesn't have to at this stage. TwilightZone May 2019 #82
He's only a known quantity to those who think he'll be an Obama clone. pnwmom May 2019 #83
lol, why does he have to read his policies at his rallies?? R B Garr May 2019 #88
Other candidates are talking about healthcare and other issues. He should, too. pnwmom May 2019 #90
He did. Biden is for everyone having the choice to buy into Medicare, and also supports a still_one May 2019 #92
"talking about". So is Joe. No one reads their policies at R B Garr May 2019 #116
No... it's not attack only when Bernie is the Democratic candidate being vetted. InAbLuEsTaTe May 2019 #61
Warren, for one, doesn't say anything is free. She has proposals with specifics pnwmom May 2019 #23
Great! Warren has been campaigning for 3 years. nt R B Garr May 2019 #38
And Biden has been contemplating this for at least as long as she has. pnwmom May 2019 #39
Not according to Biden. His son died. R B Garr May 2019 #40
Not according to Biden -- what? He previously ran for President in 88 and 2008. pnwmom May 2019 #41
lol, what issues/policies from 1988 do you want him to draft now?? R B Garr May 2019 #48
Yes, you'd think so, given the history of those two primary election losses. InAbLuEsTaTe May 2019 #43
good for him JI7 May 2019 #18
It's better than having a plan that would be political suicide redstateblues May 2019 #29
I think he should endorse a public option, like the ones the Democrats have already introduced. pnwmom May 2019 #50
That is exactly what he said in his Pittsburg rally, and details would follow still_one May 2019 #93
He has endorsed a public option previously. Demsrule86 May 2019 #111

He is admitting that sound policy doesn't get done by Blue_true May 2019 #33
Or he could lay out specifics with plans on how to pay for them like Elizabeth Warren. pnwmom May 2019 #44
Good points. But Warren has been in it longer. Blue_true May 2019 #47
I think he's going to coast on his stump speech as long as he can. Demit May 2019 #49
One candidate has coasted on his stump speech for years. R B Garr May 2019 #89
If you are talking about Bernie Sanders, I agree. Demit May 2019 #103
Correct about Bernie. But Biden has been on the stump for R B Garr May 2019 #113
Biden has been prepping for president his whole adult life. Demit May 2019 #120
Being someone's VP is a huge advantage. That's politics. R B Garr May 2019 #121
It didn't work out for Al Gore, did it? Or Hubert Humphrey. Or Nixon in 1960. Demit May 2019 #124
