OK, folks, time to face reality.
The Tara Reade accusation isnāt going away. The WaPo has it in a sidebar on the main page, primarily due to a Business Insider post involving individuals who endorse Readeās account.
As a 30-year former journalist, it is to the point where I would reasonably be asking Biden to make a full statement (if not an unfettered interview) regarding the contention. To be sure, there are numerous, proper questions regarding Readeās allegation and the timing.
But Biden should recognize he has to to counter doubt to his character. Silence - or even the appearance of obfuscation - can be quite deadly..
Fair notice: I philosophically supported Warren at the outset. But I always believed Biden would win out when the contest became between just two, true Democrats.
So letās put this crap to rest until it becomes a major issue (which it will) in the summer or fall. And if there is any chance this crap is true (despite a full VP vetting, not to mention his time in the Senate), I would deservedly be disappointed.
