They said it would happen after the trumped up claims about inappropriate touching. It didn't happen.

They said it would happen after he finally jumped into the race. It didn't happen.

They said it would happen after the first debate. It didn't happen.

They said it would happen after the second debate. It didn't happen.

They said these gaffes would doom him. It hasn't happened.

Meanwhile, Sanders, Harris and now Warren have all been pegged, with varying results, as the up and coming favorite but there's one constant: Joe Biden has universally been atop the polls nationally, and a good chunk of polls in Iowa & NH.

Biden launched his campaign on April 25th, four months ago. In that four months, his lead has remained remarkably stable. There's no reason to believe it won't hold four months from now, which will take us right to the end of 2019 and on the cusp of the Iowa Caucus. People keep underselling Biden but he continues to endure.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
