Do you want 'some hope' or 'no hope'

I respect the heck out of Joe Biden and everything he accomplished (and I didn't even want him to enter the race in *2020*. He's been eons better than I ever expected)

This whole things sucks. Aging sucks. Watching people we care about age sucks. (My dad is 81, just like Biden, I know firsthand how much it sucks)

I don't agree with the "definitely" part but I'm glad to see the renewed enthusiasm. -- nm - Reagen Jul 21, 16:58 4
- Same, though I think it was only becoming inevitable because of Democrats. -- nm - pmb Jul 21, 19:07
- It's the "new toy" effect - eag Jul 21, 17:05 1

- Fair. I can't rule it out. But odds were super slim. -- nm - ty97 Jul 21, 16:59
Exactly this. We went from no hope to some hope -- nm - Jovian Jul 21, 16:55 1
- I had hope. It was fading bad, more every day. It's a new day, a new world. -- nm - mud Jul 21, 16:58
If aging was an issue then all these people could have said something before the primary season - eag Jul 21, 16:54 5
- a lot of people were saying he should only go for one term in 2020. -- nm - mafic Jul 21, 17:22 1
  - Correct. -- nm - con_carne Jul 21, 17:37
- he's the incumbent and an open primary war would have been much more damaging to the eventual winner -- nm - hollywood big shot Jul 21, 16:57
- His decline wasn't realized at that point either because A) it hadn't progressed as much or B) The Biden camp hid it -- (edited) - ty97 Jul 21, 16:56 1
  - I do fully respect that people don't like how it all happened. The whole situation is tough, honestly. -- nm - ty97 Jul 21, 16:57
Trust me, I'll be 80 next month. I know how much it sucks!! -- nm - Meg Jul 21, 16:53
