Last week, in one of the more grating speeches of his flailing presidency, Joe Biden asked Americans a series of rhetorical questions that would have challenged a “Jeopardy!” champion.
“Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George Wallace?” stuttered the president. “Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor? Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?” For the record, Wallace, Connor and Davis were all Democrats.
So is West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin. Today, perhaps, Democrats should be asking themselves: “Do you want to be on the side of Sen. Manchin or Sen. Byrd?” The right answer might surprise them.
