While we might worry about participating in politics at a higher moral level, this is just the "perfect as the enemy of the good" framing of Biden's candidacy.

I never buy the "perfect as the enemy of the good" standard for Democrats, whether it's from our own DU members or the right wing.

This 'report' keeps making digital media rounds and is becoming filler for their news. Pandemic poppycock posting. Salon can go suck it.

I'll worry about fingers on a neck and shoulder touching when Disaster Donnie dares bring it up.

Which will be never.

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

What she's claiming is far from a trivial offense, but her claim is also far from credible. n/t pnwmom Mar 2020 #13

I disagree. Even if it's far from credible, it deserves no status in this election. ancianita Mar 2020 #16

"Back then" was less than a year ago, when she came forward pnwmom Mar 2020 #10
