…Why would anyone presume that anything that a Democrat in general and a former member of the Obama Administration in particular is true if it’s not stated under oath?

The Democrat Biden Dilemma is the Patriots Jarrett Stidham Dilemma (without the sexual assault)

I keep seeing this poll and that poll that the Democrats are thinking of replacing Joe Biden on the ticket for the nomination. This entire argument reminds me of the great debate on sports radio locally concerning the New England Patriots and 2nd year quarterback Jarrett Stidham.
Stidham was drafted last year as Tom Brady’s quarterback backup and once Brady signed with Tampa Bay, there was speculation that New England would sign one of the available QB’s out there from Cam Newton Jameis Winston or even trade up in the draft in the hopes of getting a new QB this year.
But Bill Belichick decided to stand pat. After all he had struck paydirt with a 6th round pick who turned out to be the greatest QB of all time, and two of his recent QB drafts had started for the Colts and 49ers last year so my not go with the young arm?
But the real question to me come down to: “How much better would the Patriots be in 2020 with an expensive free agent who would have to learn the system that Stidham has been training in for a year?”
I suspect the answer is, not much if at all.
And that brings us to Joe Biden.
There are plenty of reasons why it would be tough for Democrats to pull Biden post Tara Reade:
- Overturning a series of elections
- Upsetting vital black voters who turned out in force for Biden
- Causing a divided convention
- Risking an un-vetted nominee or worse Bernie Sanders
All of these are valid reasons for the Democrats to stand part, particularly when you see prominent democrat women saying that they thought Biden did it, but will vote for him anyways.
But beyond that the real question is the same one that the Patriots had to ask with Stidham: “Will a replacement do any better in the fall?”
In my opinion the honest answer to that question is: No.
The Democrats will lose just as badly with Biden as they will with anyone else, so they’d might as well stick with fast hands Joe. At least that’s where they are now.
As long as that is the Democrat equation, Joe Biden stays.
It looks like Massachusetts may not be opening any time soon

Governor Charlie Baker had originally announced that all nonessential businesses in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts would remain closed until May 4th. That date was later postponed another two weeks. Most of us in this state were hoping and expecting that when that date is finally reached things would rapidly return to normal I was one of them. My hopes were rudely squashed when I saw this article on social media: Baker: Mass. Businesses Closed Due To Coronavirus Won’t Be ‘Off To The Races’ On May 18.
Here is how Governor Baker describes his plans for the opening process:
Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker said that while he hopes some businesses will be able to resume operations soon after May 18, he added it will be a gradual process and not “off to the races.”
“There won’t be anyone firing a starting gun on May 18 and saying everybody’s off to the races, but we do hope certain types of businesses and workplaces will be able to begin resuming operations, under the guidelines established through this process, and based on the fact that we will have hit certain triggers, with respect to the status of the virus here in Massachusetts,” said Baker.
Instead of the rapid reopening we were expecting it looks now like it will be a long arduous process. According this quote from Lt. Gov. Karyn Polito the process might not even begin on the 18th.
“There seems to be some with an understanding that May 18 is a magical date. May 18 is the date that we said the report of this advisory board will be released,” she said, adding “It doesn’t mean that the economy across our Commonwealth will just reopen. It’s just not possible.”
How arduous will the process be? Check out this quote from Governor Charlie Baker.
“In the coming weeks we’re prepared to have more concrete plans on what each phase of reopening will look like, where certain activities and industries fit into which phase, general business guidance about social distancing, personal protection, and cleaning protocols that all businesses will need to adhere to upon reopening, and industry specific guidance and protocols for reopening safely,”
If Governor Baker’s reopening plan proves to be as slow and torturous as it seems from this article I’m not sure how many businesses will be left to open. How many people will have their livelihood destroyed for good? I believe the economic carnage by a painfully slow process will be staggering. I don’t believe the people of Massachusetts will stand by and let such a slow process play out. A major protest took place on this past Monday with at least a couple thousand in attendance. The protests will soon spread and become larger, Hopefully Governor Baker will listen.
Rather than relying on a committee of experts to come up with a plan which will be implemented by bureaucrats I believe Governor Baker should just let the business owners and the people of Massachusetts come up with their own plan. Decentralized decision making is always far superior to mandates from bureaucrats
