Biden, much respect, but he's just old. He looks old, he sounds old. And he doesn't have the charm (Reagan) or sheer chutzpah (Trump) to distract from it. The reasonable statesman won over zany Trump, but only barely in the EC, and I don't think he could go the distance against anyone else. Biden aside in an extraordinary year, the Democrats have not won with a candidate approaching retirement age since Truman. They need a young, glib candidate who is not Harris (young, but not glib) or Bernie (glib, not young) or Warren (sincere, but not glib or young), or Hillary (not young anymore, and generallt an irritating personality). And frankly, I'd rule out everybody else who was on the debate dais in 2020. Fresh blood, stat!
