It’s fair to call Vice President Joe Biden the “Comeback Kid” after this campaign’s near-death encounter during the early stages of the 2020 Democratic presidential primary.
After Iowa and New Hampshire, it looked as if Biden was going to get shellacked on Super Tuesday, but a strong showing in South Carolina bolstered America’s favorite Democratic gaffester to a monster showing last Tuesday, besting then-frontrunner Sen. Bernie Sanders.
If Biden wins his party’s nomination, he can thank many of his publicly elected amigos around the country, especially in Florida, where he is expected to win.
South Florida will not vote for Sen. Sanders after his full-throated and unapologetic support for former Cuban Dictator and criminal, Fidel Castro.
Biden can stick a fork in Sanders’ Lechon. It’s over in Florida.
Florida’s primary is right around the corner and it seems as if Florida’s Democratic Party has come alive (relieved) now that Biden is surging.
After all, Rep. Donna Shalala did say that Bernie Sanders was an “unacceptable candidate.”
Rep Shalala is not the only Democratic member of Congress from Florida backing Biden. Reps. Kathy Castor, Charlie Crist, Val Demmings, Ted Deutch, Lois Frankel, Alcee Hastings, Al Lawson, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Darren Soto, and Frederica Wilson, have all lent their support for the former vice president.
Team Biden just released these new statewide endorsements:
We are still waiting for someone to come out publicly for Sen. Sanders. Will it be Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell? Fat chance. Rep. Mucarsel-Powell has already expressed to The Floridian her distaste for Sanders’ extreme positions.
Mucarsel-Powell supports the Affordable Care Act and has dismissed Sanders’ “Medicare for All” healthcare initiative.
