Irony is its supposedly Sanders , the white knight of US leftists, is responsible for putting these women and their stories in front of the cameras.

Franken must be kicking himself.

Judging by Northam s  choice , and his Attorney General, for example all you have to do is wait it out ..

No doubt Biden will take that path now aswell.

Problem is any perceived enemy of progressives will also use this tactic. Progressives use of sexual and identity politics to crush opposition in the name of "social justice" is now gone.

And , as usual, they did it to themselves.

Biden is not in office.

Under the old standard, which progressives invented and were proud of, was a public shaming, to apologize, beg forgiveness, resign, quit or drop out of whatever position you held or sought.

New standard, thanks to same progressives, rationalize, apologize  with taking little or no responsibility then simply ride it out and forget it ever happened.

Biden is not in office and not seeking office. 

What exactly is the next step here? 

If you're so concerned about a person who is not in power and not seeking power, why are you not concerned about a rapist in the WH?

I have no idea what's he doing. Given how the Dems have pushed predators out of power, if there is evidence of this sexual assaults, then he too will be pushed aside.

If one believes the NYT, and I'm guessing you're inclined to, he has a plan drafted for 2020 and the only thing missing is an official announcement. 

Biden will not drop out, party will not pressure him, he will ride it out and take his chances. 

Again, there is a new standard at play now.

If Dems didn't force Northam out no way they're going to sacrifice Biden on the altar.

Biden is one of a few in the party that stands in the way of whack job leftists in the party hijacking the 2020 race and scaring away votes. 

A centrist looking Biden is an attractive option to those in the party serious about winning in 2020.

I have no idea what you're trying to get at. You're fake outraged the Dems haven't kicked Biden to the curb? Even though he's not in office or running for office.

Whataboutism on a new level here.

Point was made earlier.

Political enemies are to be crucified with sexual/identity politics under the guise of "social justice."

One of their own? , hey, relax that's how Biden is, he's just a little handsy that's all. Move along.

Larger point. Progressives can't swing that hammer anymore if they let Biden slide like they did Northam. An own-goal.

The pretzels you twist yourselves into to make some vague, incoherent point, is laughable.

Speaks volumes that you think 23 credible accusations of sexual assault & harassment is democratic mud slinging 

while also forgetting the dems quickly dumped  a senator for one thing. 

So one thing, and you should be toast if your a dem. Why’s the GOP allowance for inappropriate behaviour?  50?

God. The more the alt right talk the more gross it gets.

It doesn’t really matter does it?  When your boy is a serial abuser, it’s pretty tough to go on the attack....

Manufactured hypocritical outrage is hilarious.

Not outraged in the slightest.

Honestly amusing to see progressives panic and turn on each other ,devour with self contradiction. It is and should be pointed out.

Left has always been their own worst enemy .

not when you're operating by the Karl Rove playbook. 

McCain, shot down, wounded, POW, is scum cause he criticized  the caudillo.

The Caudillo,  five time draft dodger, deserves  a full military parade in his honour.

These people are blind. Even my idiot bro in law has figured out Trump is scum.

 Zontar should go back to the Ticats forum.

Oh I see. You prefer when people shelter and defend sexual abusers.  The GOP way. 

What’s wrong with this idiot?

 

McCain was a career self aggrandizing politician of the first degree. An open borders globalist.  Faithful servant of the multinationals and arms industry.

Never saw a region where armed intervention wasn't the first choice. Signed off and beat the drum for both Iraq wars and Afghanistan debacles. Begged for war with Iran and Russia.

Ignored his constiuency repeatedly on immigration to side with the corporate americas desire for cheap labour.

The very sort of pig at the trough politician that has destroyed people's confidence in government .

Other than that...
