While we wait, a short thread of my Biden-related work, starting with my 9/17 piece: "Joe Biden’s Platform for 2020: Anti-Populism"
"you can see him sculpting a role for the 2020 presidential campaign that perhaps only he could get away with playing" https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/09/23/joe-biden-president-2020-anti-populism-215638

Just before his entry into the race, I wrote of "The Two-Biden Problem," how to square his 2 disparate narratives pushed by his friends and foes https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2019/04/11/the-two-biden-problem-226649
Soon after Biden's entry, and initial poll bump, I argued the activist left was misreading the Democratic electorate, and in turn, Biden's chances https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2019/05/14/joe-biden-2020-226872
Back in 2018, after Biden's eulogy for John McCain, I wrote about how Biden's mastery of grief was politically potent https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2018/09/03/joe_biden_master_of_grief_137965.html (I should have had this titled "Commander-In-Grief")
In June 2019, I defended Biden's (and Obama's) record of bipartisanship, and pledge to restore it https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2019/06/29/joe-biden-bipartisanship-2020-president-227250
After his primary win, I argued that "It Doesn’t Matter That Trump Is Beating Biden Online" https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/05/11/biden-campaign-2020-digital-trump-245550
And in March 2020, I said "Think Joe Biden Has a Young Voter Problem? Think Again." https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2020/03/23/think_joe_biden_has_a_young_voter_problem_think_again_142733.html
Finally, yesterday I flatly asserted "Biden Will Win" https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2020/11/02/biden_will_win_republicans_should_understand_why_144578.html
