      It's true that the attacks on Biden have been irrational, contradictory and stupid -- but so were many attacks on Hillary. The change is opinion on Trump much more fixed now & also Biden is a white guy. https://twitter.com/mattyglesias/status/1316099635627384833 …

      Oppo only works on you if you let it work on you. For a variety of reasons (gender, past political disputes, distrust of her by some mainstream outlets) many let the anti-Hillary oppo work on them. Far fewer are open to anti-Biden oppo.

          It's also difficult given the opposition. What worked in 1988 (the plagiarism and the lies) obviously pale in comparison to what Trump is doing pretty much every day.

          I think the lesson is that 25 years of oppo on a candidate does work.

          I think that part of it is the experience of last 4 years. Against Hillary, Trump was the shiny, no-PC, unscathed candidate. Now they have his actual record (or lack there of) to weigh against. At least some people who voted for him as an institution-breaker will reconsider

          Don't discount 30 years of negative messaging/propaganda she had against her. Biden doesn't have nearly the history she had (form Whitewater to Benghazi).
