I no longer have anything to say about who it will be our standard bearer..Joe Biden

[Peacetrain]

was my choice.

If I lived in NH and was going to vote this week.. Joe Biden would be my choice

If I were caucusing in NV week after this.. Joe Biden would be my choice

If I was part of the group who really will say who is going to be our candidate (Super Tuesday) Joe Biden would be my choice

I would never let the republicans get away with the smear campaign they have been using against Joe. Never. And if you have another candidate closer to you philosophically.. I hope you will stand up for that person. Because if they succeed doing to Joe what they did to Hillary , they are coming after them all.

Stand Strong Joe.

1. I won't be wavering - Joe is it for me.

[Peacetrain]

2. I am proud of my vote!!

[wisteria]

29. Me too.

[cherryinpa]

3. Same here

But I am today far closer to Amy than I would have expected to be at this stage.

Just being pragmatic, she is the next best viable option (followed by Warren).

The need to get Trump out of the Whitehouse outweighs my long time support from Joe.

[Peacetrain]

4. Trump has to go.. Lord what a nightmare he is

[tiredtoo]

5. For the record they have been going after Hillary for 30-40 years

They had convinced many, otherwise logical people, that Hillary was evil/crooked and so on. They turned Kerry into a war chicken from a war hero. They will do their damndest to make any candidate we put up what they want him/her to be. Part of our job this year is to make sure they don't succeed.

[Peacetrain]

7. True that! I still remember those people with band-aids mocking

Kerry a wounded veteran.. and supporting Bush the younger who spent his time AWOL

[PatSeg]

23. That was disgraceful

Little did I know that it would get worse.

[wisteria]

30. I remember that too. I boil everytime these same people say they respect our troops

[still_one]

6. Good for you Peactrain. I assume you have seen this, Joe at NH Democratic Party dinner

8. I had not!! that is so great.. THANK YOU!!!

I have one of those ear to ear smiles on right now

[emmaverybo]

19. Locked thread, but saw clip. Thanks for posting! Beautiful moment.

[still_one]

25. Hope they repost it, otherwise i will

[emmaverybo]

41. Thanks for efforts.

[Dave in VA]

9. In it to win it!

Wife and I will be voting for Joe on Super Tuesday!

GO Joe!

[Peacetrain]

10. Virginia is for Lovers.. One of the greatest state slogans of all time

[Dave in VA]

14. Thanks!

We do love our commonwealth! Even more now that our legislature is blue!

[Skidmore]

11. I have said for months now

that I will not contribute to feeding another Democratic Party leader and their family into the maw of the Republican scandal machine. I will not support any candidate on the left who participates in the furthering such scandals.

[Peacetrain]

15. I can't either

[wisteria]

31. I stand with you.

[demofan40]

12. Buttigieg did stand up for Biden passionately

And no one seemed to care. In fact someone posted yesterday that Buttigieg's comments were no big deal.

I agree with smear campaigns. But that should be for EVERY candidate. Buttigieg included.

Save the rage for the appropriate target: Republicans.

[Peacetrain]

17. I have me met Pete.. and he is nothing less than a very good person!!

There is a difference between going after each other for electablility.. and policy and using the right wing smears coming out of the bowels of twitter..I have never known Pete to ever do that.

[wisteria]

32. I cared about what he said.

The problem with his comments on behalf of Biden, were they were used against Biden by the talking heads.

[peggysue2]

13. Standing right there with you, peacetrain!

Biden has been my preference from the start and continues to be my choice. Super Tuesday I'll get to cast my vote. Actually I plan to cast my vote early on the 18th, once I return from Jersey. That vote will be for Joe.

We hang together or we'll all hang separately.

I'm for hanging together!

[Peacetrain]

18. I am standing with you too peggysue!!

And we hang together!!! Super Tuesday is going to tell the tale..

[emmaverybo]

16. Excellent post. Unfortunately, MSM has helped Republicans mightily in their efforts. Did it again

with Joe’s obvious joke—and no, you don’t have to know which movie to know it’s a line from some old Western—-despite audience getting it. Now we have “bizarre” Joe etc.

Guess standing ovation last night stepped on the preferred narrative, Biden’s campaign is terminal.
If he does get traction via a win in SC despite all attempts, including throwing the race to Bernie, MSM will likely spend as little time as possible on any positive Biden news, and instead, for the next 24 hours, warn of his impending doom in the next state and gush over a rival’s miraculous “surge.”

[Peacetrain]

20. I do not get what is up with the media.. I understand they are human beings with their

own preferences.. but its like if they have to say anything positive about Joe.. It is always with a "but" so be it.. they are scared that Biden is going to calm the waters so much they will not have their 24 hour gin up on something or other that Trump gives them

[emmaverybo]

21. Yep. What's the fun if the most qualified, experienced, job specific-knowledgeable candidate is

ahead and then, God forbid, wins. And worse goes onto a no-drama-Obama type administration?

You are really onto it, Peacetrain.

[wisteria]

33. The talking heads have been wanting to do this si cue he announced

But, Biden was able to still remain at the top. Now, they think they can use Iowa and NH to knock him out. I wouldn’t bet against Biden though.

[rwheeler31]

22. Thank you

[Cha]

24. I'm looking at the Big Pic like I always do..

the smears come and Go but Biden is the one I want for President.

And, we know that Iowa's caucuses and NH are not representative of the Diversity in America.

[wisteria]

34. Exactly

[totodeinhere]

26. That's perfectly fine. I congratulate you for your strong support for your candidate.

n/t

[IronLionZion]

27. They're already doing it to Joe

unless you forgot the Ukraine business with his son and the famous phone call that got Trump impeached but not convicted. They're trying to smear Joe and have enough voters be disgusted in enough states to not vote for him and give it to Trump.

No matter how disgusting Trump is, their proven strategy is to lower our vote count as much as possible.

[wisteria]

28. My feeling exactly

And, the silence from other Democrats who could be defending Biden is eye opening. It seems many don’t care because it isn’t their candidate or their choice. But, when Trump and Gooliani , and the Russians come after YOUR Candidate, don’t expect me to care enough to defend him or her.

[yortsed snacilbuper]

35. kick

[Mme. Defarge]

36. Bien dit!

You speak for moi.

[world wide wally]

37. You can see that the Trump slime job is working on Biden like it did on Hilary

There is a very good reason Trump is doing that to Joe... He's scared shitless because he knows Biden will beat him in a head to head vote.

[LakeArenal]

38. Joe remains the most qualified both nationally and globally.

No contest.

Trump knows it too!!

[DENVERPOPS]

39. I seriously believe

that everyone on this forum can agree that we need to go with the "most electable"............

The most electable, up until now, is Joe Biden. Period.

If you doubt my thinking, then ask yourself: Why have the Republicans and Trump being going after him full time, from every angle, for the last 9+ months. They aren't going to spend their time and money to go after someone they are not worried about, now are they?

All during the impeachment investigation and impeachment "hearing", instead of normal: Hillary, Hillary, Hillary, or Bengazi Bengazi Bengazi, or emails, emails emails it was BIDEN BIDEN BIDEN...........

Trump's DOJ/BARR has, in the past few days, begun everything he can to go all out to destroy Biden with criminal investigations, interviews, depositions and hearings........Trump now has the approval to invite other countries, even our enemy countries to legally interfere with our elections. The FEC has been rendered a nothing by the Republicans, The three government groups actively investigating election fraud was destroyed by Mitch taking their entire funding away, etc etc etc

If they are going to take out Biden, they must be supremely threatened that he will have the best chance against Trump.
It will be just like what they successfully and corruptly did to Gore, Kerrey, Hillary and others.....

The corrupt corporate fascist tyranny, (AKA Republicans) will go after Biden like they have never gone after anyone before............

With Biden about to experience the "all out Wrath of Hell", from undoubtedly the most corrupt party in this country's history, I'm not sure who we should go with for the nomination.

I have to say, the Democratic Party is in the worse shape they have ever been in......
They can't even control the continual and constant entry of all kinds of people into the primary, much less decide on who to go with.
At this rate, they won't have a designated candidate until October.......
I honestly think that the Democratic Party is being helped with the disarray by the Repubs every way possible.... Just look at Iowa.......A republican group sabotaged the system to collect Iowa democrat primary votes by overwhelming the Dem's phone lines with thousands of the Republican party members calling in and tying up the phone lines. It is a really really old scamming technique, the dem's IT should have prevented it...............(It's called a denial of service if you want to look it up)

Really simple shit, but overwhelming devastation......

I truly believe, all things considered,...... WASF

40. I Feel for You and All Who Support Him

As a Sanders and Warren supporter I feel for you. His son did nothing wrong, Is was something that any senator’s son does. Look at Ivanka and Jared and the rest if of the grifter family!!
Joe Biden is a true public servant and a father figure for us all. I did not always agree with his decisions but I respect him. I am sorry that your candidate is not doing as well as you had hoped.
I recognize that we may all have to compromise somewhat to save our country from Trumpism.
I wrote this in the spirit of our coming together as Democrats. I have had enough of the nasty battles on DU.
