Biden seen as weak front-runner as 2020 U.S. Democratic race heats up
MSN News ^ | September 2, 2019 | James Oliphant for Reuters

As summer ends and the race for the 2020 Democratic U.S. presidential nomination shifts into a higher gear, former Vice President Joe Biden's perilous position atop the vast field stands to be tested under even more pressure.

Biden, 76, has consistently maintained a comfortable lead over his rivals. But his campaign has been plagued by doubts over his age, fitness for office and whether, as a moderate, he can be a standard-bearer for a party that has grown increasingly liberal.

Those questions are likely to be magnified in the coming weeks.

Labor Day serves as the traditional marker for the White House race to intensify, with five months to go until the first nominating contest - February in Iowa - in the state-by-state process of picking the party's nominee to challenge Republican President Donald Trump in the November 2020 election.

Democrat, Joe Biden is not only the “Gaffe-A-Minute Bozo”, but he is the forever moron, idiot, buffoon clown. Good luck, Democrat Party scum, vermin and low life combined. Casting a vote for any Democrat running for 2020 POTUS is simply voting to destroy the USA Nation Republic!!!

No mention of Biden’s gaffes and latest made up story, so why does the title say he’s Weak. Typical Fake News.

None of the Dems are going to wear well through an entire campaign. My bet is that they are going to be so heavily damaged that they will be replaced in a brokered convention in July 2020 by a dark horse candidate, probably Oprah.

as a moderate, he can be a standard-bearer for a party that has grown increasingly liberal.

Translation of media-speak:

as a liberal, he can be a standard-bearer for a party that has grown increasingly filled with cultural marxist crazies.

Oprah would never survive a long slog of a campaign, but she could survive a very short campaign, so grab your pics of Oprah with Weinsyein, Epstein, now, and get going on oppo research. She could be taken down as a corrupt woman willing to feed the innocent to monsters in order to get ahead, and as a woman who is so in love with narrative that she makes horrendously bad personal judgments about people.

The reason such a weak candidate is the front runner is all the others are weaker. Churchill said it best.

True. That’s their goal — to destroy the USA.

“grab your pics of Oprah with Weinsyein, Epstein, now,”

Really. I expect that they’re being scrubbed even as we speak. Probably many pics disappeared when Weinstein and Epstein became notorious.

If Oprah is the compromise candidate in 2020, she’s gonna beat Trump. White women adore her.

“Labor Day serves as the traditional marker....”
Is that true? I don’t think so. Labor Day of the election year signals the campaign to shift into high gear. I’d never heard any particular significance being applied to Labor Day of the year prior having particular significance. My point being, on issues both great and small, they just make facts up to fit their narrative.

Joe Biden at his last campaign stop, “And the last thing I say to you Democrats, sometime when the team is up against it and the wailing and gnashing of teeth over the Orange Man, and NOBODY is buying the BS about abortion on demand, no border wall, free healthcare and college and guaranteed income promises and The Orange Man and his minions are beating you, just go out there with all you’ve got, win just one for the Groper!”
