Well, according to Democratic Presidential candidates Cory Booker and Kamala Harris, he seems to be close enough to merit admonishment, because of his statement last week that he got along with and worked with segregationists in the Senate.
Geez, talking about grasping at straws, and now Harris and Booker have pulled race out as a talking point to attack Biden.
I thought that was the point of government, to discuss policy and try to reach a compromise with people you might not agree with, and now Biden is getting slammed for doing just that.
Booker I have no use for, but Harris I expected more from. She was someone that my not be my choice for POTUS, but she would possibly be a good fit as a VP for Biden, which might have been a strong ticket, but no more it seems.
I think Harris made a mistake attacking Biden over his supposed racial insensitivity, and then the next morning after the debate, she starts selling tee shirts emblazoned with "That little girl was me", the phrase she used when she confronted Biden over school busing. That was pretty quick marketing of a supposed off the cuff remark, right?
But, it seems to have worked because now her poll numbers have surged after the debate, pulling her almost event with Warren, but still a long way to go to catch up to Biden, the future POTUS
So we will see whether or not this really sticks to Biden and causes harm to his candidacy.
I hope not.
