We pretty much lucked into getting someone who worked out all his political ambition long ago (and he did have it once, in spades) and at his age is left only with caring deeply about the country.

He appeared on 60 Minutes for a wide-ranging interview -

Let Biden be Biden!

Every president needs aides but he has better political judgment than the average Dem staffer and his “gaffes” are usually good.

Joe's offering a deal!

Senator Lindsey Graham has proposed a national ban on abortion that would put criminal penalties on doctors.
