Biden is going to go down in history as the first VP to serve 3-4 consecutive terms.Just kidding.I am too focused on the 2014 midterm elections to participate in the discussion this cartoon invites. Mitch McConnell is facing growing R dissatisfaction with his ‘moderate’ views and there is discussion of fielding a more conservative R to run against him. As I’ve said, perhaps too much, McConnell is one of the 4 people in congress I consider part of the problem. Reid, Boehnor, and Pelosi are the other 3. I do believe if Ky fields a Rep who is more conservative than McConnell, it will give the D’s an opportunity they might not otherwise have. I have little trust in D restraint if they hold a super-majority, and less trust in the R’s as they have been behaving over the last two decades. A friend of mine who works for an international company travels from Europe, to Asia, and to South America. She says most of those living outside of the USA do not consider us to be a democratic nation because our two party system locks out other voices and parties. I cannot say these people are wrong.Respectfully,C.
First the Democrats will have to get past the GOP’s latest election-stealing scheme: assigning electoral college votes to (previously gerrymandered) Congressional districts… but only in Democratic-leaning states; Republican-leaning states still winner-takes-all. There’s really nothing those sociopaths won’t do for power.

Not sure why Morin draws Hillary much more attractive than in real life, but I think Biden is probably the smartest Democrat in decades.

Heck, Biden could be good for 16 more years – two terms as Hillary’s VP, then 1 as Chelsae’s VP.
