You were with me in spirit as I watched President Biden deliver the State of the Union. Finally, there's the U.S.A. I remember-the values that shaped me and the goals to be achieved. I no longer felt like a stranger in a strange land. He can win and the women's vote will give him wings.
A great reminder, Ramon Grigg. Last night’s SOTU speech gave us all a jolt. Joe was terrific! It’s time to stop the hand wringing and moaning. Let’s face this fight and give it all we’ve got.
Beware of today's polls... most are online, opt-in questionnaires that appear on commercial sites and are designed to get clicks. It costs nothing to put a poll online and let anyone answer as many times as they like here or outside the country. Reliable polls require carefully vetted questions that aren't ambiguous, statistical selection of representative voting populations, and high-level mathematical interpretation. The results don't get propagated because they aren't presented as click bait.
Give 'em hell, indeed! I remember getting weepy during Biden's inaugural address, and the same is true again. He is resolute. I can only hope that it ignites those whose flames have gone dim. "...never underestimate a president who, against all conventional wisdom, against popular opinion, sees a future with him in it because he HAS to be in it." Hear, hear!
I was somewhat encouraged after last Joe's last night speech. He clearly demonstrated the differences - strong, confident, and very knowledgable. Once again there was no question in my mind, who the right choice was - if I ever doubted and I didn't - hopefully others got that same message.
Unless the Democrats do something, we're in for another nail-biter, just like Truman-Dewey. And this time it might be Trump holding up that paper and grinning like a baboon. One way out? Biden chooses (brace yourself) a Republican for running mate(!). Why not? There are plenty of anti-Trump Republicans ready to go, and it would put Biden over the top.
Thanks for reminding us of this, Ramona! Go Joe!!

I almost skipped it too! I'm so glad I didn't. Brilliant indeed and I'd like to just go ahead and vote now!

Can we shelve the Depends?
I know and I've had enough of the "T" word.
Biden delivered what was desperately needed.
No need to debate.

"That idea went up the chain without anybody apparently knowing that Ike was a conservative Republican" It was a little more nuanced than that. Ike wasn't anything at the time. see millercenter.org/president/eisenhower/campaigns-and-elections

My family and friends are voting for you, Joe, and your "young ideas."
