Caitlin Huey-Burns on Biden Allegations: ‘It Shows the Perils of Waiting and Lingering About Making a Decision’

‘The longer that he waits out there, the more scrutiny is applied to him and his record’

RUSH EXCERPT:

HUEY-BURNS: “Right. Well, I think it shows the perils of waiting and lingering about making a decision about whether to get into this race. The longer that he waits out there, the more scrutiny is applied to him and his record, especially as these voters are getting a look at all of the other options that they have available to them. It also shows this kind of contrast that Biden will be faced with within his own party, a party that has been dramatically changed in the era of Me Too. I have— we’ll say that I’ve been reporting in New Hampshire and Iowa and South Carolina, following all these candidates, and every time I ask a voter about what they think of Joe Biden, almost to a tee they say, I love him so much, I just don’t want him to run. And part of that is that they feel kind of personally invested in his legacy and they know what a presidential race could do to him. And they want him to be a player, but not necessarily inside. Now, he does have high name recognition.”
