Reposting from LBN: Biden says he no longer supports the Hyde Amendment

9. I think I know all I need to know.

He'll sign a bill w/the Hyde Amendment in it. He'll have to, whether he approves of it or not. That's reality.

The candidates are in the gathering stage. Gathering support & votes. They're not banging the gavel on firm beliefs on what to them are peripheral issues.

If it's not a long held view, or something that a candidate has been struggling with for years, it's not going to be a firmly held view (the new view). You don't change your mind in two days on something you've held the opposite view on for years...if it's something you care about. But that's fine. He's not necessarily in control of that, anyway. Bills will come to his desk with whatever is in them that took to get them passed in Congress.
