...This sounds like a shakedown. Many of Bidens positions have already moved to the left in a big way. If he caves-in to these demands, there wouldnt really be much of a difference between a Biden or a Sanders candidacy, except that Sanders can navigate his way around a salad bar. (Tucker Carlson was joking on his show. He asked if Biden could find his car in a three-tiered parking lot? Can he navigate a salad bar?)
Strassel reminds us that, normally when a candidate captures the nomination, they begin shifting back to the center.
But Team Bernie is effectively holding a gun to Bidens head...

If sufficiently frightened, for a short period time I think most Americans will put up with police state light or even Boston Strong outright police thuggery. As these Wuhan plague panic models continue to implode most Americans will become unruly pretty quickly.
The article’s author treats Biden as though he is a normal, lucid candidate. Nothing could be farther from the truth. It won’t be Biden who alters his positions. It will be campaign staffers. Biden can’t remember his campaign positions. He’s probably lucky to remember his name.
Biden’s bizarre outbursts are to cover for the fact that he can’t speak a coherent sentence. I challenge you to a pushup contest is a lot easier to say then I think we have to establish a study group to decide how we will fund and implement Medicaid for all.
He lives in the biggest mansion in the state of Delaware. Instead of an assisted living facility, he can arrange to have Visiting Angels come to his house.
We lucked out on that one. The Dems had triple control and spent the whole two years fussing on Obamacare. Missed a LOT of opportunities to do damage.
Things like card check unionization, national outlaw of right to work, cap & tax on energy, etc.
Bernie hedged his bets. Hes not actively campaigning but hes still on the ballot and hes still collecting delegates. If Biden comes down with COVID 19 or Alzheimer’s then Sanders will be there to take the nomination or at least challenge Cuomo for it.
Even Democrats who claim they are for Biden quietly whisper about his senility when they think no “outsider” is listening.
Cuomo will replace Biden (due to his incapacitation) and name Bernie as VP for a unity ticket.
Team Bernie is effectively holding a gun to Bidens head...
If their gun is aimed at Biden’s head, he is safe from any lethal harm.
I am not so optimistic.
And a souped up ‘64 VW Van...with the requisite peace signs and other art work...
