    The very act of campaigning tends to drag candidates down as their flaws are identified and hammered over and over.

    That’s what happened to Dukakis, Gore, McCain, Clinton, etc. Even Obama, who in 2008 went from “inspirational DNC orator” to “inexperienced community activist”.

    And that’s what’s happening to Biden.
