Jill Biden, Doug Emhoff team up in final campaign stretch

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) - Jill Biden and Doug Emhoff are both from New Jersey. They married politicians who have been in the national spotlight for years. And now they're building a team as the better halves of the Joe Biden campaign.

Biden and Emhoff have rapidly become two of the campaign’s most prolific surrogates, engaging in in-person campaign events and virtual fundraisers at a pace that often outmatches their spouses at the top of the ticket.

While Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have spent their days campaigning in key states like Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Florida, Jill Biden and Emhoff have had nonstop schedules of virtual fundraisers, constituency-focused events and trips to important but less high-profile states like Virginia and Maine, where Jill Biden visited this week.

They’ve campaigned together more than their spouses have, visiting New Hampshire earlier this month and Iowa over the weekend. And in a joint interview this weekend, they said they’ve begun to build a partnership that will help the campaign and a potential Biden administration.

Most bizarre campaign I have ever witnessed, the candidates are hiding while their spouses are out campaigning.

While Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have spent their days campaigning in key states like Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Florida wandering in his basement with a noon lid, and saying the late Tupac is the best rapper alive, respectively.

They did an in-person event in Omaha, NE area yesterday. I think the target audience was air force spouses.

The picture in the newspaper this morning showed a total of less than 20 people there. Including media, Dem party people, secret service (for Jill?), and the two candidates’ spouses. It was unbelievable that the turnout was SO LOW. Might not have been ANY actual voters in attendance.

You are so right. Never expected to see someone campaign less than Hillary did in 2016, but here we are.

“While Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have spent their days campaigning in key states like Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Florida,”

Notice how the media tries to elevate what Biden and Harris are doing to the level of a real campaign. What they have done is speak in empty parking lots, cornfields, echoing halls, backyards, give “interviews” and have “press conferences” where they get to use a teleprompter or have the answers written out for them. That is not a real campaign by any stretch of the imaginiation. Every “event” they have had has been private, handpicked, and so low key that almost no one knows where they are or when the “event” is to take place.

I can imagine the turnout to see Melania. Not so much Jill.

Jill is guilty of elder abuse. She needs to shut it down.
