Clinton debate performance enough to keep Biden on sidelines?
Fox News ^ | OCTOBER 14, 2015

Hillary Clinton was seen to help stabilize her faltering campaign Tuesday night with a debate performance that left little doubt she has a solid grip on the Democratic presidential race -- and may have sent a strong message to Joe Biden that time is running out if he envisions jumping in.

The Democratic front-runner and her closest competitor, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, dominated the debate stage in Las Vegas, relegating the other low-polling candidates to footnote status.

Funny, this is pretty much what I'm reading from every journalist regard the debate. But when you look at all the polls, rank and file Dems say Bernie won by about an 80% margin. Why the disconnect?

Media and public opinion are two separate and distinct things. The media “think” they have a sense of public opinion, when in reality they haven’t a clue. They think or rather want fellow liberal progressives to think the way they do.

If Biden isn’t in the race in the next two weeks it will end the speculation and any hopes he has of winning the nomination - the clock is ticking.

Biden stays on the sidelines because he knows the progressives are an ungovernable mob.

Hillary said she is a progressive who will get something done. That was the scariest comment I ever heard aside from

Biden is sidelined because he knows Clinton adversaries become dead.

I think Sanders won the debate last night. If Hillary had a meltdown last night, Biden would be in. That didn’t happen. Unless Obama’s flunkies leak something really damaging about her in the next few days, I don’t think Biden will run.
