[Salon] Gaza? Ukraine? Always Look on the Bright Side of Life!



FM: John Whitbeck

The 51-second video clip transmitted below offers further evidence that, so long as President Biden remains capable of reading a prepared script, he should not, under any circumstances, take his eyes off that script.

It is possible for the optimistic among us to view this latest gaffe, which would be certain to be featured prominently, along with others before and after, in Republican campaign ads, as an encouraging potential tipping-point.

Coupled with the poll results released today by the NEW YORK TIMES, which show Trump leading Biden by 5% (48% to 43%) nationwide, 47% of voters "strongly disapproving" of Biden's handling of his job and only 23% of Democrats "enthusiastic" about having Biden as their party's nominee while 48% of Republicans are "enthusiastic" about having Trump as their nominee (https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/02/us/politics/biden-trump-times-siena-poll.html), it is conceivable that those who make the decisions for the Democratic Party might finally realize that it is in their own personal self-interests (all that matters!) to offer the American people a presidential choice other than one between two dotards who combine mental debility with moral depravity.

As always, one must hope.
