WASHINGTON - Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden has shown surprising strength in the first three weeks of his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination, prompting a persistent question: Can anyone stop him?

“The rest of the race now revolves around Joe Biden,” said Joe Trippi, a longtime Democratic operative who is not aligned with the campaign. According to Real Clear Politics, Biden is backed by about 40% of the Democratic electorate on average in opinion polls, giving him more than a 20 percentage-point lead over his nearest challenger, U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont.

That becomes exponentially harder with the 2020 scrum, with its 20-plus candidates all vying for attention and money. Trippi said more than a dozen Democrats trying to challenge Biden have consulted Trippi on strategy.

You think?!? There’s the creepy old man Joe stuff about the touching and smelling of hair, there is the new information about him blackmailing the Ukraine to help his son, and of course the Obama’s failed presidency record, worst recovery vs best recovery, the choice is clear

Debate will enhance or dissolve.

Biden slept at the desk for eight years and let China takeover SCS. No wonder Trump called him Sleepy Joe.

ChinaJoe

Do you think he's meddled in his son's illicit activities in obtaining a $1b contract ? Sound suspicious? Do you think after working as VP 'under' potus44 that he wouldn't have a few tricks under his belt? Really? At 76 he doesnt need the $$$ but is he doing it for his family?

🤣

Pitfalls like being prosecuted for extortion in China and Ukraine.

Well, being a pedophile probably doesn’t help his cause any.... Biden2020 - Sniffing kids is his business.

Pitfalls? Seriously. Biden can't talk or lead. Besides, WHY vote for other policies than are happening right now? They are working, which is what we want. We want families to be able to support themselves economically...not a permanent, dependent underclass.

no chance-trump nailed on for 2020

Oh he's got to do all those debates....all the 'folksy' talk is bound to be littered with gaffes. 😐😏

Biden has zero chance of winning!

Dream on

Joe Biden has 44 years of fed govt experience going into this election. How is he going to sell that to Americans whose trust in fed govt is lowest it’s been in 2 decades while proposing larger govt role as a solution to nation’s problems?

Joe Biden continues to top the crowded field of 2020 DemocratsAs the list of Democrats running for the White House expands, Joe Biden continues to hold a fierce lead over his competitors whilie saying he won't 'speak ill' of another Democrat. Jeremy Peters and A.B. Stoddard discuss. MSNBC resorts to all out lying to manipulate the mass on Biden's popularity. You are pathetic, Comcast. Biden is a corrupt right-wing hack who would lose to Trump by 20+ points. GFY White leftists aren’t nearly as progressive as they make themselves out to be.
