Ugh. Whatever my present issues with Biden, including taking money to campaign for a Republican in 2018; I don’t want a ‘commercial lender’ to just come in as President.

Neither. That’s my vote. Abstain.

Brazil vs. East Timor here. I’m surprised to see it’s closer than many of the other matchups. Are there really that many “Never Biden” folks here? I can’t imagine Delaney is getting votes on his own merits.

As anyone who’s read my posts about Biden here knows, I really don’t think much of Biden. But against frickin’ John Vanity Candidate Delaney? Biden it is.
