Biden vows to fight to the end

The Democratic establishment is coming out in force to try and persuade poor Joe Biden to step down and make way for someone younger. The New York Times is leading the field. Other papers are joining the NYT. I can't imagine what it's like in the White House right now. There must be an air of desperation. But Biden is having none of it. He has vowed to stay to the bitter end and fight all the way. No one is going to push him out. You have to admire him. He knows he has the backing of his wife, Jill, and I guess that's why he has decided to put a bold face on and confront all the siren voices. What he needs to do more than anything is make lots of public speeches and raise his voice so that everyone can hear what he is saying. No more mumbling. Shout from the rooftops if necessary. And, above all, the next television debate with Donald Trump must be so different everyone watching will wonder what all the fuss was about. Can he do that? Will he do that? Sensible people in the White House, such as John Kirby, his strategic communications adviser and a good guy, will I am sure be impressing on the president the need to go forward boldly and, preferably, ignore The New York Times editorial.
