This was the election where Biden seemed to have actually turned the whole election around in his VP debate with Paul Ryan. Obama did pretty shitty in his first match-up with Romney, just really put in a poor performance, then Biden came in and it was like a kick in the butt, he virtually walked all over Ryan.

And he was a decade younger then. Past time for all the old farts to be put to pasture(good and bad) and let us other generations have a go at the wheel of power. This death grip they have thinking no one else can do it is going to literally kill us.
Makes me wonder what our world would be like if Biden had run against Hillary and Bernie in 2016.
God I wish we had two sane non-geriatric candidates again. I’m a huge Bernie supporter and I would never vote for Trump in a billion years. I’d literally vote for a turd before casting my vote for Trump. But between Romney and Biden…. especially after that abysmal performance by Biden… I’d be struggling. This is not the best this country has to offer. It’s very very sad actually.
Isn't it insane that out of 330 million people, we have these two to pick from?
Yeah. But that was Obama. And it was back before the entire right wing lost they damned minds
It was a few years into them being pissed at the audacity of a black man becoming President.
And Obama trainwrecked that debate. Incumbents usually do at their first one. We thought we were fucked. Total panic among Obama volunteers. He did better in the next ones and won so it was ok in the end.
