Liberals have come to like Biden more during his presidency, whereas they came to like Johnson a lot less.
McCarthy was a serious man who had held a high office for nearly 20 years when he challenged Johnson.
Now that he’s running, the safe call seems to be to rally behind him, lest a challenger help sink his chances.
That’s what another Kennedy, Teddy, helped do to another Democratic incumbent, Jimmy Carter, in 1980.
Sixty-six percent of registered voters think Biden is too old to be president and 59 percent have doubts about his mental fitness, according to a Harvard CAPS-Harris poll conducted last week.
