Betting that Iowa (and national) GOP assume (or more likely were given heads- up) that Chuck will bow out before his term ends and Kim then anoints Pat Grassley. That solves their hypocritical Age Argument… per Grassley anyway. Total agreement that Biden is the real deal, but Dems MUST start warming up the bullpen with strong, nationally viable candidates.
Excellent analysis, Barry. Your column and the President’s easy manner at last night’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner give me new, hopeful regard for him. But one of my concerns with having no apparent upper age barrier -- in either party -- is chasing young potential leaders out of politics and government. We need their energy, nerve and younger view.

Thanks, Barry. You cut to the truth
