Joe Biden’s Big New Hampshire Blunder

Politico  

Now, the Granite State will once again hold an election to begin the presidential nominating process, Biden will not appear on the ballot and Democratic insiders here are being made to organize a write-in campaign to ensure that the sitting president prevails when the vote is held in January. And as he watched a self-funding, idealistic, slightly quirky 54-year-old lambaste Washington’s “grotesque” fundraising industrial complex while vowing to take questions from New Hampshire voters one town hall at a time, well, the old hand has seen enough races here to know what resonates in an independent-minded state where independents can swing primaries. “There’s very little upside and lots of downside for Biden,” said Steve Duprey, a half-century veteran of New Hampshire politics. Yet I’ve covered enough races here to know that, as Duprey put it, “New Hampshire voters like you to show up.” Phillips intends to do that and began his campaign vowing to break McCain’s record of total town halls held, an ambitious goal for the two and a half months before New Hampshire’s likely mid-to-late January primary date. But the tradition is we start here.” As for Biden’s decision to try to push back New Hampshire, he said it amounted to an attempt to “disenfranchise” New Hampshire’s voters.
