I respect Minnesota Congressperson Dean Phillips‘ intention to run against Joe Biden in New Hampshire and perhaps beyond. I admire his courage in speaking out (a lot of people are angry at him for doing this) and openly sharing his fears about Biden’s electability and trying to goad others into challenging Biden also.

He’s honestly concerned about Biden’s numbers being too low, which they are. He’s genuinely concerned that Trump might prevail in ’24. Plus he’s thoughtful and well-spoken.

But Phillips isn’t high-profile enough to launch a credible New Hampshire challenge, and he’s not good-looking like a movie star. His eyes are too small and beady-ish, and his nose is bigger than Bill Maher’s. But I’m glad he’s doing this regardless. At least someone on the Democratic side is trying to shake things up.
