Elephant in the Oval: The uncomfortable Biden question could soon be impossible to ignore

Biden's presidency and legacy on the line in Tuesday's midterm elections
by W. James Antle III, Politics Editor |

President Joe Biden has a lot riding on Tuesday’s midterm elections.

The course of his presidency, whether he wins a second term or can accomplish anything else of consequence in his first one, may hinge on whether Democrats can preserve their narrow congressional majorities.

Right now, it’s not looking good.

Republicans lead on the generic congressional ballot by nearly 3 points, according to RealClearPolitics. Only one major pollster has Democrats ahead. Cook Political Report projects that the House is as good as gone and the Democrats’ best-case scenario for retaining any power on Capitol Hill is keeping the Senate 50-50, with Vice President Kamala Harris breaking ties.

Biden predicted the polls would shift back in the Democrats’ favor once more before Election Day. His own travel schedule suggests otherwise. With the significant exceptions of regular barnstorming in Pennsylvania and one stop in Florida, Biden has headed recently to blue states: California, New York, New Mexico, and Illinois.

That reflects two sobering realities for Democrats: that the possible red wave is starting to seep into areas Biden carried easily in 2020 and that these are the only places the president and his top surrogates can actually help.

Which again is why I say the Republicans need to stay away from impeachment and let the Rats pass around the 25th Amendment knives.

This needs to be 150% on them.

Make the Democrats do it.  Don't provide Confirmation in Congress.

And - just an observation - if Donald Trump were to win the election in 2024, he would be older than Biden was when he took office.

By 83 days.  But then Trump doesn't have dementia.

That is true but if the Dems have to deal with the messy issue of the 25th, Mr. Trump’s age will surely become an issue.

Only because they are hypocrites.  They would be applying a standard to Trump that they would never dream of applying to one of their own.

I don't accept their rules.  Their standard sucks.  I refuse to play along.
