being a "middle of the road lackluster uninspired candidate" does not compute. It's like the people who say it haven't paid attention to him outside of a few snippets on the MSM. Because he's kinda crazy in a ha-ha way, not a lunatic way.

Plus, there's that working-class Scranton dude who comes out from behind the sorta polished facade every now and then when you least expect it. Joe is a tough old scrapper and ordinary guy behind his "foreign policy expertise" gravitas. I bet he knows how to kick your lawn mower to get it started and the exact way to jiggle a toilet handle when the tank won't get filled up.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
