How long until the shiny 'newness ' of Biden wears off and the dimwitted press returns to stories about policy ideas?
@Sturgis,
Why yes. He's got a "policy push" being prepared in some committee or another, but his campaign reeks of improvisation... we shall see.

Our stalwart press will definitely follow behind whatever they think gets ratings, that’s for sure. The candidates (including “shiny new” Biden) best way to deal with that is to run effective campaigns with well written speeches, carefully chosen appearances and limited gaffes.
The full name is Joseph Robinette Biden.
And no, it's not a French name or word, though robinet is French for "water tap".
Curiously, Biden is currently saying we need to get out of Yemen but not Venezuela. To me that's another example of his poor judgement, we need to get out of both places.
@Brand X,
But Venezuela has oil—and if we stay in Venezuela long enough, they’ll start using the petrodollar again! Presto!
This is from 2015 when a marble bust of Cheney was placed in Emancipation Hall of the Capitol.

Joe Biden: "I actually like Dick Cheney... I get on with him. I think he's a decent man."
He adds that Cheney was "extremely helpful" about the "legal parameters" of the VP office. Without irony.
Mondale then says his view of Cheney is "a little bit different." The crowd laughs

Yup, I think that compliment ot Cheney, his similar conplimenting of Pence, and his handling of the Anita Hill/Clarence Thomas debacle are going to be the things that challenge him the most.
@Lash,
What is Bernie's opinion about getting out of/staying in Venezuela?
@Lash,
Oh, good. That's not what I asked.
@snood,
I thought that was exactly what you asked.
You’d have to clarify your question to get an answer. I’m not sure how Bernie feels about the Jacobson family in Caracas and their travel plans.
@Lash,
Okay, play dumb when you don’t have an answer. No skin off.
Not providing military support is not the same as getting out. But you know that.
@snood,
Snood, I can’t tell you how Bernie feels about someone in Venezuela if you can’t tell me who it is.
@Lash,
We were talking about whether he believes the US should get out of Venezuela or stay there. But you knew that.
@snood,
Again, I’m not going to assume who you mean and compound the folly by assuming what Bernie thinks about it.
Bizarre.
