A robust intra-party debate about whether public perceptions about Biden's age and acuity, his shitty polling and a relentlessly hostile media environment made another run too risky would have been a very good thing to have had last fall and early winter.
@JoshuaHolland Yup. Too bad whenever those concerns were raised, elected Democrats were all like "Ohhh, he's so articulate behind closed doors!"
If we had a chance to make a realistic assessment back then, we wouldn't be where we are now.
