Joe should make Bernie defend the reality that during 13 years in the Senate and 16 years in the House, Bernie has made a great deal of noise--much of which has been good, but has actually accomplished very little. He has exhibited very little patience by working to move incrementally when possible. Instead, he generally has opted to choose an "all or nothing" strategy. Compare that to Ted Kennedy, who accomplished more than anyone else over his years in the Senate, by working with what was possible as he kept his eyes on the prize.

"Does not play well with others" is not a useful trait for an effective leader. Unfortunately, that description applies quite often to Bernie.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
