What the Hell Now?

What were Barack Obama and Joe Biden talking about at Ethel Kennedy's funeral?

It was like a scene from a Mario Puzo film. The setting: a cathedral, the funeral of a great matriarch. Two mob leaders locked in a tense discussion as their fellow mourners congregate around them. Onlookers wonder what the two men are talking about. The organ swells…

Except it wasn’t a Mario Puzo film. It was former president Barack Obama and President Joe Biden going tête-à-tête at the funeral of Ethel Kennedy.

Even before we got a lip-reader to translate, it wasn’t hard to guess what they were talking about. They were talking about the sh*t show that is the current Democratic presidential campaign and the woman presiding over that sh*t show, Vice President Kamala Harris.

Kamala has had a bad week. A very bad week indeed. To say that she’s come apart at the seams would be polite. It’s like a pitbull that swallowed one of its owner’s little baggies got a hold of her. There’s stuffing everywhere. All over the place. She’s inside out. Bad dog!

Anyway, soon enough we had our confirmation, thanks to a professional lip-reader.

“She’s not as strong as me,” Biden says.

“I know… that’s true,” Obama agrees, then adds, “We have time.”

“Yeah, we’ll get it in time.”

We have time—but for what?

To find another candidate? Maybe.

The American people, and the world, know who Kamala Harris is. She’s not going to change that now. But with two weeks left before election day, there isn’t enough time to introduce somebody else and let the voters warm up to them.

So who?

How about Biden—again?

Is that what Biden was alluding to—“She’s not as strong as me?” Had he just put himself forward—again?

Three months of Kamala Harris, and Biden has come up smelling of roses. I mean, the old coot has advanced dementia, sniffs little children like the Big Bad Wolf and falls asleep at international summits, to the embarrassment of all, but somehow even that seems preferable to whatever this is. Biden is bad, but he’s not that bad. Or, at least, it’s now unclear who is the worse choice, and Biden’s a known commodity with a track record.

Better the devil you know and all that.

It’s not hard to understand Biden’s animus against Harris, or his continuing belief that he would make a better president than her, but it’s worth remembering that Barack Obama, unlike Nancy Pelosi and others, did not offer an automatic recognition of Kamala Harris as the candidate-elect when he helped force Biden out of the race, back in July.

Remember Barry’s statement on Medium?

“We will be navigating uncharted waters in the days ahead,” he said. “But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges.”

Barack didn’t want an open primary—the Democrats had just had one—but he clearly wanted some kind of internal selection process and wasn’t prepared to go with Kamala Harris simply because she was Vice President and a woman of colour.

We don’t know what kind of deal was cut to get Barack and BIG MIKE on side, but evidently the Obamas have buyer’s remorse. They should have known better.

It’s quite telling, too, that a source close to Obama didn’t deny the lipreader’s translation. “Only President Obama and President Biden know what they discussed yesterday,” the source said. “Any assertion otherwise is ridiculous.”

By contrast, Biden spokesman Andrew Bates scoffed loudly at the suggestion the two men were talking Kamala Harris at all: “A ‘lip reading expert’? Did your usual right-wing soothsayer have their out-of-office up? Only President Biden and President Obama know what they discussed, but this certainly wasn’t it.”

It might be fanciful to suggest the Democrat rug-pullers are reaching for the carpet once more, but this has been probably the most fanciful election in recent American history, probably ever. Former president Donald Trump has been the target of an unknown number of assassination attempts—at least two, maybe four—the sitting President has been removed from the race in a palace coup, two hurricanes have ravaged vital red states—the list goes on. The appearance of a delegation from Alpha Centauri would scarcely be out of keeping with all this. (In the meantime, while we await the real aliens, the British Labour Party have sent 100 staffers to canvass for the Harris campaign in key battleground states.)

Maybe they will, maybe they won’t. I’m going to keep an open mind. It’s the best way to avoid nasty surprises. But one thing is certain, for sure: Joe Biden and Barack Obama aren’t the only Democrat bigwigs asking: What the hell now?
