Elizabeth Warren, btw.

She's the one who recommended Khan? Well done, Warren!

She only recommended her! Everything she does after she doesn't get credit for, right! /s

You can't stay consistent, can you? "Biden bad" is the only difference between Warren getting credit for recommending her and Biden getting credit for choosing that recommendation because it was the best choice for what he wanted to accomplish.

Correct. That was exactly what I gave her credit for and that alone.

You can't stay consistent, can you?

I have throughout. Just because I'm not as impressed by Biden's ability to say "oh, alright" to someone better's suggestion doesn't make it inconsistent to appreciate Warren's good suggestion.

No. If a group of people suggest which restaurant to eat at and you accept one of the suggestions, you don't get credit for the quality of the food.

The person whose idea it was gets credit for the idea to eat there, and the restaurant get credit for THEIR work.

it was the best choice for what he wanted to accomplish.

Best choice? Yes.

What HE wants to accomplish, rather than what more progressive parts of the party care about? Highly doubtful based on a congressional career where he was always on the side of corporations, a notable example being championing the BAPCPA, which was a major reason why the CFB was founded to protect regular people from corporations.
