In reply to the discussion: I think the anger over the Harris- Biden exchange is not because she asked the question [View all]Hekate
(90,674 posts)At least I read it as hurt: like, how could you misunderstand my intentions? I'm for Kamala, but have been a strong Biden defender here at DU, as I find most of the complaints against him here (up to this point anyway) to be slanted and evidently originating from just a few people who never bother saying why they support their own putative candidate, only that they despise Biden and want him knocked out of the running.
I think he is a good man and does not deserve to have his record twisted by Democrats on a Democratic discussion board. He has a long record of trying to do the right thing -- sometimes failing, not always being right, but on the whole getting it right. He's one of ours.
However, he's going to have to up his game and snap into 2019 soon when it comes to running a campaign. He can't assume that anyone younger than 35 or 40 knows the good parts of his record. Kamala Harris intends to win, and prosecuted her case.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
