Are Democrats Doomed to Nominate Biden Again?
< < Go Back
Little more than a week after Election Day 2022, President Joe Biden already appears to be clearing the field of potential rivals for the 2024 Democratic presidential nomination. Voters may not be happy about it, but the White House must be thrilled to see one formidable potential candidate appear to rule herself out of a presidential run.
Last week this column noted that the unexpectedly strong midterm showing by Democrats could actually harm the party’s 2024 prospects by entrenching Mr. Biden as the leader of the party. This week what’s striking is the speed at which the potential field is already being winnowed. Weirdly, this is occurring as enthusiasm for another Biden campaign remains well in check.
