      My mother just emailed me. Subject "Cuomo or Biden" Full email content: "Not liking either, who would you choose?" It's like she's taunting me.

      There are several reasons why, but one is that Biden is very much in the twilight of his career. Cuomo would remake the party in his image.

      Exactly.. For many reasons, Biden is a more plastic figure and keeps more possibilities alive. He would govern as head of a coalition.

          Perhaps, but that's still a distinguishable outcome from a Cuomo administration, which would be more petty and vindictive than even Buttigieg.

          it's true that Biden is a more plastic figure, but he's more flexible precisely because he has no guiding moral or political principles. his only goal is to have his name and face on things, and to have enough power to behave badly and get away with it

          This was kinda Obama’s play too. 🤯 He’s just a more skilled rhetorician.

          Right. The idea of replacing Biden with someone else makes no sense and would, if tried, tear the party apart.

          More like a figure-head with lots of palace intrigue behind the scenes. And that's assuming he even makes it to November. Our eagerness for anyone but Trump gives the @DNC plenty of time to swap in someone even more craven than Joe.

          As @joshtpm has pointed out, Biden is not a bold policy innovator or any sort of ideological figure. He's pretty much going to find his way to the median of the party. So this is the time for the left to up its persuasion game. Pull the medium D left, you'll pull Biden with her.
