Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: Trump goes after Joy Reid this morning and DU promptly joins in with multiple threads trashing her [View all]Perseus
(4,341 posts)Joy Reid was part of the panel, and she praised Biden big time, she was on Biden's camp at that time, but maybe things that Biden has said/done, his history have turned Joy away from his camp.
I have said it in other posts, there seems to be some kind of fanatism for both Biden and Pelosi in DU, and that is not healthy. When either of them do or say something that goes against Democratic principles we must be able to analyze and have opinions about it. We cannot become fanatics, that is for republicans, not for open minded Democratic liberals. There are reasons why we are liberals, one of them is that we accept other people's opinions, we use them to learn, to make decisions, but we always keep our ears and eyes open.
Now, I have been saying for a while that the creature, and the republicans, seem to want Biden to be the nominee, they see his gaffes, and they know so much about Biden that for them it is easier to go after him. That is my opinion.
Again, this has nothing to do with the person Biden, I think he was a good VP, and I like him as a person, if he becomes the nominee I will definitely vote for him, there is no doubt. Now, do I think he is the right candidate? No I don't, and that is my opinion which I hope can be respected the same I respect the opinion of those who support him.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
