Joe Biden is a very likable, down-to-earth sort of guy. I think he would excel in a regular televised Fireside Chat format. I really don’t know why presidents did not continue that after FDR.

Democrats need to get better at tooting their own horn, because the press certainly isn’t going to do it for them.

Of course he’s likable and down-to-earth. That’s not the problem. And Democrats have had plenty of time to make clear the quite real achievements of Biden. It’s late in the day for chats by the fire. Quite frankly I’m quite put off knowing Biden has taken no preemptive action long before now to pass the torch forthrightly.
