That comparison to Hillary Clinton is eye-popping. Still don't know how anyone was fooled by Donald Trump but the barrage of reputation-killing propaganda against Hillary Clinton obviously worked. Amazing, too, that Joe Biden's numbers have increased after the whole gaffe-gate nonsense. It would seem the public has learned to filter out the garbage. Not that I expect the hits will cease but they're simply not doing the damage the opposition had hoped.

Good one on Joe. He continues to defy the naysayers.

You...we have stayed soooo positive without bashing other candidates. Althou sometimes tempting to bash others back you haven’t.

The positive is contagious and what’s at the heart of his support...

None of that will matter. Many of the folks who settled on Biden early are like me and we're not moving. It won't even matter if he doesn't win IA or NH, especially in a crowded field.

...you can't out gaffe Trump. Trump has turned a minor flub into one of the most embarassingly idiotic weeks I've ever seen from a politician. Imagine if Obama drew extra states on an old map with a sharpie, and then spent a week trying to tell people they existed.
