joe biden has managed to brush off several controversies without losing his standing in the polls, earning him the nickname teflon joe. is he electable. michelle goldberg writing "even if you don't support him, it's hard not to feel anxious on his behalf. biden at his best is undisciplined but with a big heart. personal warmth all be enough without the ability to inspire masses of people. anyone convinced that biden is the safe choice should go see him for themselves. "joining me now, national review contributor luc tomlinson and jessica tarlov. great to have you. jessica, michelle goldberg has been a skeptic of joe biden for a long time. she says when she went, with an open mind and understanding that there are democrats all across the country saying that we like him, she said i understand you like him but she does not think he's going to be able to win the election. >> that has been the worry. we have 24, 25 candidates now. people lining up on either side of it. i've seen it pushed by the media and not the voters.
