Have you seen the TV spot that says something like, “Joe Biden was brought up on working class values. He doesn’t need to be the center of attention or on the TV screen”?
One of my first memories of Joe Biden was during the hearings for a Supreme Court nominee — maybe Bork — and Biden mugging and rambling on for quite some time, evidently enraptured by the sound of his own voice, before he actually got around to asking a question. Yeah, Joe is a regular shrinking violet.
His whole campaign is one big lie, but the lie is hidden by the thinnest of veils. Anyone who cares to honestly look and do a little research can see he is an attention hound, that he is a liar, that he is not the man of vitality shown in his ads that use photos from years ago, and that he is not a nice man. I think even a lot of his supporters know that, but they unenthusiastically support him because he is not Donald Trump. Better to have a nasty, decrepit, crooked, old windbag than Donald Trump, I guess.
I think it was Clarence Thomas, not Bork.
