Is Joe Biden a better candidate than is generally thought? New polls showing Mr. Biden ahead of President Trump nationally and in battleground states have buoyed Democrats and unsettled Republicans.
In Wednesday's RealClearPolitics average of national polls, Mr. Biden led Mr. Trump by 6.3 points, 48.3% to 42.0%. In the three critical "Blue Wall" states that Mr. Trump carried in 2016, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, Mr. Biden leads, respectively, by 2.7, 5.5 and 6.7 points on average, and he's ahead in Florida by 3.2 points.
In late February, Mr. Biden stood at 50.4%, while Mr. Trump was at 45.6%. Mr. Biden should be enjoying a bump, having become the presumptive Democratic nominee in dramatic fashion.
Mr. Biden would be better off saying that Hunter's trading on his father's name in China and Ukraine shouldn't have happened and won't happen again.
The Biden Battalion's opening shot at Mr. Trump, leveled in a memo from deputy campaign manager Kate Bedingfield and echoed in millions spent on ads by the campaign and its super PAC, is that the president's weakness toward China led him to bungle the coronavirus response.
After the president announced limits on travel from the Communist state on Jan. 31, the following day Mr. Biden denounced his opponent's "Hysteria," "Xenophobia" and "Fearmongering." Not until April 3 did the former vice president reluctantly come out in support of the travel restrictions.
To win, Mr. Biden must make the election a referendum on Mr. Trump; the president in turn must make the race a choice between two candidates with deeply divergent agendas.
