Only Biden Can Save the Democrats from Total Embarrassment
National Review ^ | April 30, 2019 | Conrad Black

Posted on 05/01/2019 4:56:32 AM PDT by LegendHasIt

Joe Biden’s announcement of his candidacy for president must be seen as the last stand of forces trying to prevent the Democratic party from descending in a power dive into a mighty bonfire of the far Left.
(snip).....
We are where we are, and if Joe Biden isn’t the nominee, the Democrats are almost certainly going to go into the deep end and not be seen again for at least two years.

Let’s hope. If Biden is the answer it was a very stupid question.

Biden and “total embarrassment” do go together. He is currently at the peak of his popularity: he’s a Dem candidate people have actually heard of! He’s also very old, very tired, and prone to saying and doing all kinds of goofy things. He doesn’t have what it takes.

"He’s kidding, right?"

In a sane world, it would be a joke.

But at National Review, I daresay this is the common belief;
Ol' Joe is as close to the Establishment Elite Deep State Uniparty easily managed political hack as they are likely to get.

I "LOLed" twice when I heard Biden say "Make America Moral Again", first that HE of all people would say it, and again when I realized what the acronym would be.

“American politics may be inching back toward normalcy at last.”

Mr. Black doesn’t seem to realize that this is the new normal.

See my tag line.

Exactly! I mean, this waxed, plugged, bargain basement figure from Madame Tussaud’s is the hope of Dems? What are they smoking over there?

He plagerized in law school and admitted it saying it was not malevolent. Also he plagerized a speech as a candidate and had to drop out.

You use a total embarrassment to stave off a total embarrassment? Makes no sense. If the Democrats fight their own house fire by burning down the house, it will ultimately stop burning, but there is no house left....and I am perfectly OKAY with that. Maybe Joe can use the firefighters Union to accelerate the fire!! Their rank and file are NOT behind Joe however.

Mr. Black would appear to symptomatic of the National Review's inability to realize much of anything of late. The rag has one foot in some vacuous 'hope and change' cloud and the other in a 'never-Trump' manure pile. I am surprised it hasn't gone the way of that idiot Krystol's Weekly Standard.

“Mr. Black would appear to symptomatic of the National Review’s inability to realize much of anything of late.“

That seems true. These days the only person at NR worth a damn is Victor David Hanson.

Any candidate will lose and the Dems won't be seen for two years. What a stupid line.

Yeah....this family has some kind of morals....

Hunter Biden splits with brother's widow, who he left his wife/family for....

.......The news comes on the heels of Hunter telling Vanity Fair that rumors about his personal life would not affect his dad’s 2020 run for the Oval Office. In January, he said in a statement: “My father has always been proud of me — whether when I was volunteering for the Jesuits, or working as a lawyer. And he remains proud of me today. He loves me. And he loves the American people far too much to let any form of adversity stand in the way of service.”....

NR’s job is to see that the Left/Establisment’s grip on the moral level of political conflict is never challenged from the Right or even far left if they pinch profits.
