Resurrection
Less than a week ago Presidential Candidate Joe Biden was considered gone from the Democratic race. This morning he is a front runner. The speed of change was breathtaking, but that is the way it can be in politics. Communicators slog on and try not to let prevailing opinion demoralize them. They know, however, that their candidate might not make it to the convention, but they have to stay as long as possible. Only if their candidate publicly gives up do they know their future. It's a long, hard road with twists and turns and tens of thousands of door-knocks. One must have confidence in the candidate and be willing to suffer lost sleep, disappointments and occasional highs. With a crowded field, such as the Democrats had this year, breaking through to voters is hard, particularly if one doesn't have money to advertise -- as Biden didn't. Biden's strategists are on a high today, but they know it is too soon to celebrate. There is still a tenuous road to walk.
