Democratic Primaries

Mars and Minerva

Rep.Tim Ryan basically said that V.P.Joe Biden was mentally incompetent. [View all]

He was just being interviewed by MSNBC . It wasn't subtle and he went on for quite awhile.

I sent...." @RepTimRyan You are done. How dare you infer that a fellow candidate is "declining" in mental health. I promise to do everything I can to make you look like the nasty, sad, losing and jealous loser that you are."

He tried to do this in a more understated way to Nancy Pelosi when she was running for speaker. He is, in my opinion, a sleazy bottom feeder who is bad for the party.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
