(58,785 posts)good guys? By that measure, Chuck Todd's a LW hero.
Please remember all the press coverage to date. As the Democratic leader for months before he even announced, practically the only candidate in the race on both sides, Biden's been THE big target for the media. Besides that, he's the Democrat who MUST be defeated to protect the venal interests of most of their employers.
If that's not enough, political media always attack the "same-old" candidates they've covered for years as boring (they always are to them!) and try to pump up shiny new candidates as exciting to create a race. How about the blizzard of dishonest and negative coverage over the past year on how old, boring, hopelessly out of touch, unexciting, corrupt, creepy, senile, conservative, and unelectable Biden is? The energy invested in that has undoubtedly sped up global warming all by itself.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
