It is a reason for Democrats to be the adults in the room and acknowledge that someone who can’t sit through a Super Bowl interview isn’t someone the public can trust to have the physical and mental stamina to handle an international crisis, terrorist attack, or some other unforeseen threat when he’ll be in his mid-80s.
Silver himself, while a hard Lefty, is not at all optimistic about Joe’s chance of political survival:
If Biden doesn’t drop out of the race between Super Tuesday and the convention, they’ll kick him to the curb faster than you (he) can say: “I’m an elderly man, and I know what the hell I’m doing.”
