Joe Biden is looking for that sweet spot between “wise” and “over the hill.” That can be hard to find when your voting record is older than some of the other candidates in the race. People who know him have told me that the former vice president has decided, out of both strategy and conviction, that he should never apologize. He still sees himself as the same young-buck visionary, the one who was barely old enough to be sworn in to the Senate when he first won his seat in 1972, three years after Neil Armstrong walked on the moon.

For dimocrats, he's too white, too male, too straight, too Christian. But he's not too much of a pervert -- just the right amount for them. In fact, its the best thing he's got going; his proclivity to grope little girls is the dimocrat sweet spot.

Biden has been over the hill since forever! The only sweet spot he knows is the pillow on his bed!

Joe is not too unqualfied. The man doesn't appear too steady in his remarks and deliveries. If we can't be sure of him sitting in the White House Oval Office, his title as the Most Powerful Man in the World is a scary thought.
He just "doesn't have it going on"

Too old? No, just too stupid, apparently too white. NOT gay enough but hell he'll give it a shot. Looks older than Granpa Bernie. Mattressback Harris is as black as Obama was. Excuse me We have a pretty dam good POTUS so I guess we'll let these LOSERS lose.

FTA: "People who know him have told me that the former vice president has decided, out of both strategy and conviction, that he should never apologize." Article out of date already! Biden apologized today for admitting he worked with fellow Democrat senators from the south! He's toast. Today's Democrats, ignorant of history, want another McGovern.

"Old" is such a prejudicial expression. It carries a lot of negative sentiment. You're never too old to do anything so long as you can do it.
As for Biden, I think he's been around for too long. He's a career politician. These types inevitably lose their edge. They fail to adapt to different times and ways of thinking. It's not so much old as lazy that's the problem with most career politicians.

Look out for click-bait to get readers to say that by the same token the conservative choice would then be too old. Age is a state of mind, as we all attest, but I do not trust the Atlantic or other lib sites.

I would add to that and ask Is Joe Biden too old dumb and stupid to beat Trump? That’s good for starters I think.

I still remember old old Strom Thurman, at age 99/100, being led around the Senate to cast his votes. Old old Biden is mentally close to that right now. An old cute like Biden would be a scary situation(being near the Nuclear Attack Button) as POTUS?

I always knew Obama was a low IQ idiot but the sum total of Obama and Biden's IQs are in the double digits. Neither was too sharp if you ask me. The statement repeated again yesterday about Trump the bully needs to be taken behind the school gym and whipped or thrashed is some scary talk on a campaign trail. That's the second time he mentioned a pugilist match with Trump. Joe's mouth is his own worst enemy he speaks without thinking or doesn't think at all. Joe is not too old he's just too stupid.

It's not his age, it's HIM! Queen Elizabeth II just turned 93 and she's still firing on all pistons.
Some people are old at 50 and some are spry at 90. Old Joe has been brain dead for over 30 years.

Let's start with some tougher questions: is the Pope a member of the Catholic Church? Does a bear tend to relieve himself in wooded areas?

Is he too old? His brain certainly is after having three serious operations on it. Google "Biden's brain surgeries". Why hasn't CNN been talking about this??

Joe was "too old" ten years ago and that's why he became the VP to an illegal alien Kenyan sock puppet. He would not cause any trouble and he would be the token old white guy that would mask Valerie Jarrett's position as the string puller. Iran didn't get pallets of cash for being a nice neighbor.

Not everyone ages at the same rate of course. Some 90 year olds are as sharp as a tack. Biden had 'issues' by age 40.
