As Biden struggles, Hillary waits for the call (vulture lady clrcles Biden)
The Hill ^ | 4/30/20 | Liz Peek

Hillary Clinton continues to waver in the wings should Joe Biden fall.

Don’t look now, but Joe is failing. Not only has his campaign been rocked by sexual assault allegations from one-time staffer Tara Reade, but the public is beginning to give up on the former vice president. A new Emerson College poll showed 57 percent of likely voters think President Trump will win reelection in November.

Remember, Establishment Democrats put forward Uncle Joe because he was the “safe” candidate, bound to defeat Trump. Oops.

That’s not the only problem that crops up in the Emerson Poll. It also shows Trump supporters 19 points more enthusiastic about their candidate than Biden supporters. That “enthusiasm gap” will drive turnout this fall. With Democrats dependent on young people and minorities, both typically less reliable voters, that lack of excitement for the candidate could be a big problem.

Also less than gung-ho about Biden is, predictably, Bernie Sanders’s army. Though the Vermont socialist has endorsed Biden, 51 percent of Bernie supporters are, according to Emerson, open to voting for a third-party candidate.

Another red flag is Biden’s tepid fund-raising; according to the New York Times, Trump has a monster cash advantage of $187 million. Further, in swing-state polling, the presumptive Democratic nominee is running behind where Hillary Clinton stood at this point in the race, and we know how that turned out.

As all of those issues cast doubt on Biden’s prospects, the presumptive nominee must now fend off Tara Reade’s allegations, which put #MeToo-supporting Democrats into an incredibly awkward spot.

None of this augurs well for the Biden campaign, which will likely confront further obstacles in the months ahead. Eventually, the coronavirus will no longer excuse the former VP’s invisibility; he will have to engage in the kind of give-and-take that often shows him getting befuddled, including real – not scripted – town halls and interviews.

At that point, the public will see what numerous Democrats have noted sotto voce – Obama’s former wing-man is struggling with some cognitive decline.

Maybe all the leftists can eat each other until there is only one obese one left who catches Corona Virus.

20 years after HRC is mouldering in her grave, there will still be people freaking out about her eminent comeback.

Yawn. Joe’s at the point where he can’t even tie his shoes, and anyone who thinks Biden could be president is as mentally deficient as Joe.

Kankles is a TWO TIME LOSER.

She’s also the BIGGEST SORE LOSER in the history of presidential candidates.

She’s also the MOST UNLIKABLE candidate that ever was.

I hope she does try to run again. It’ll be fun kicking her gigantic cottage cheese @ss again.

I don't think the real insiders believed that. They only thought he would help them hold onto a greater number of seats in Congress than anyone who ran against him.

Wonder if Hillary’s people are reminding Joe Scarborough that they just might have more details about that dead intern that was found in his office. That they expect and will be very grateful if instead of softballs, Scarborough pitches high and tight fastballs when he interviews Biden tomorrow morning.

Yes— the “drudge” site had the statement in RED font that “hillary is hovering” to take up the candidacy (thereby shortening even more her “run” in 2016... zero campaigning this time around,so she thinks she’s to be anointed).

Sent a message: “Hovering? You mean like a female Baroness
Harkonnen the floating fat woman in her hospital bedsheet Mu-mus, fat cankles and sick psychopathic need for power? That one”.

Here in “Dune” with a young sting, and similar (Epstein island victims, hitlery?), just for fun:

I support Joe. Every poll and every phone call he’s my man. I vote too. Polls and fake news go together and deserve each other’s company.

I am with you. Joe's my man. But I do have a slogan. "After where it's been, do you REALLY want Joe's finger on the button?".

Otherwise, I am good.

a lot of bets coming in on Crooked Hillary’s return ... her odds have dropped recently at many betting sites...

she needs Sleepy Joe out soon before he sucks up too much of that limited campaign cash....

the Crooked One has more baggage than Sleepy Joe and all the BernieBros will be super pissed again and either not vote, vote Trump or some psycho Green party

delicious!

“Ah ain’t in NO ways tahrd..... “ in her best awful fake
Southern negro accent. With literally decades of facade, fakery and outright lies as well as human treachery as baggage, and the fact she sees NONE of this AS baggage.

Fortunately, obamaumao is trying to prevent it so we might get Michael “package” Robinson (see:Joan Rivers,just a thought), which will definitely NOT earn the demonrats 1.) black male voters 2.) many except the crazed Stacey Adams gibsmedats black females votes 3.) even the most tenacious bernie bots, male or female votes— they ain’t going for the Mooch.

The sensible choice would be Gabbard (seeing as how they don’t seem to care how many delegates were actually won, vs. the competence of the candidate). Hitlery aint having Gabbard, and supposedly bernie gets to keep his “delegates” and Quid Pro Joedementia gets ALL the big bucks superdelegates . Oh and don’t leave out a truly unqualified and actually not even Constitutionally possible candidate— Camel-La roundheels Harris (”black” in designation only).

Who is Sidney Blumenthal rooting for-— why-— hills and huma the hummer (she’s still “seeing” her DC whispers reports— disgusting).
