Being out of the public eye may be good for Biden's prospects. He's running as the I'm-not-Trump candidate, and voters will know that next fall.
For a week or so, Biden’s struggle to stay visible caused a ripple of panic among Democrats.
Any reelection race is a referendum on the incumbent. That will be even more true for President Trump given the public health and economic catastrophes ravaging the country. Biden holds virtual meetings with campaign staff, appears in digital town halls and does about a dozen media appearances a week. After a rocky start involving garbled audio and missed cues, the broadcasts have improved considerably.Biden mostly plays the role of Shadow President, explaining what he would do in this crisis if he were in the Oval Office.
But that was the point. To voters caught in a terrifying crisis, boring might be beautiful. It was a pandemic version of Biden’s winning message in the primaries: a return to normalcy.
