Keep in mind they're jetsetting across the country, changing time zones, living in hotels, giving 40 minute speeches sometimes twice a day. Hour long limo rides back & forth from the airport, standing for upwards of an hour 2 or 3 times a day, every day, 6 or 7 days a week. For 70+, it's gotta be difficult.

No, I just brought it up now that Bernie ended his campaign, somewhat officially making Biden the Dem nom.  I'm with you on not having seen him, I'll admit this whole news cycle has not helped him, it's kept him out of the limelight, although in a way that can be a positive.

I think he's too old. He has too many gaffe's that aren't gaffe's anymore. They're borderline or essentially early Parkinsons. I hate to say it, sounds cruel but it was noticeable. Plus he didn't campaign hard in Iowa or NH, and focused on SC then NV, then it was basically over. So he hasn't been tested in a long campaign trail like Hillary in 2016 and remember she had moments of wearing out. Bidens gaffe's won't hold up. I think his campaign knows it, and I think the DNC has been informed of it. Personally, I think something drastic happens.  Either a funded 3rd party candidate or something big happens at the convention.

Having said all that, bars & retaurants, tourism etcc remains way down all year. Plus when next flu season picks up they slow down all over again. I bet next years Mardi Gras is a record low.

If there weren't shutdowns there would be 10X more deaths in the US.  We implemented mass shutdowns 3 weeks ago and viola, coincidentally NYC is beginning to show a decrease in numbers.

I think he nods a female Gov, not sure who. Otherwise Klobuchar.
