Just saw Joe Biden referred to the 'reliable Buick' of this race. [View all]

As the granddaughter and niece of former Buick assembly line workers, I full heartedly approve of this description!

From the article - link below snips:

Biden has become the reliable Buick of this race.

His momentum accelerated as he broadened his delegate lead over Sanders with a series of decisive victories.

The former vice president's solid win in Michigan came in a state Sanders was depending on both to bolster his case going forward and for the practical delegate math involved.

He came into the day about 96 delegates behind Biden, and Michigan was his best shot at preventing that lead from getting any wider. (Democrats require 1,991 delegates for nomination.)

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