In reply to the discussion: Kamala's attack on Biden was months in the making [View all]ecstatic
(32,685 posts)Why on earth are we hearing about this? On one hand, you can't help but be impressed by the level of preparation involved; but on the other hand, it adds to the "overly calculated" argument. I assume her campaign thinks the good will outweigh the bad? The problem is, she used Biden, a guy who everyone loves, as a pawn to showcase her ability to destroy an opponent's character on the debate stage. So in that respect, the bad might outweigh the good.
And now we have Biden on Twitter sticking up for her against the "she's not black" rumors, which have already been playing out and doing major damage WAY before she even announced her run. My gut reaction is that, despite the gushing from talking heads on TV, it's NOT a good look. Just like it would not have been a good look for Biden to obliterate Kamala on the stage. Maybe he could have but chose not to because he's wise enough to know better.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
