Why Not Biden Again?

Earlier this month I wrote (emphasis added):

DeSantis loses to whatever Democrat (hopefully not Biden, but more on that later) runs against him.

Why not? Mainly age. Biden was already the oldest presidential candidate ever last time. I appreciate that he’s done better than anticipated, but he’s still not getting any younger and I think the Democrats can manage better (and probably doing a better job of inspiring voter enthusiasm) than running an octogenarian who strongly hinted when he ran last time that he would only serve one term.

Time to step aside and let a new generation serve. Someone like Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer, perhaps.
