Candidates can't get a grip on President Biden. So they're going after his No. 2.

But to hear Republicans tell it, it’s not Biden but the former California senator who has her Chuck Taylors planted firmly in the Oval Office.

All those factors combine to make her a groundbreaker in yet another way: the vice president destined to launch 1,000 negative campaign ads. Most of her predecessors could have entered the witness protection program with few knowing or caring. Biden’s approval rating, which hovers in the low to mid-50s, doesn’t sparkle. But it’s quite decent given the country’s deep and persistent polarization; President Trump never once hit 50% approval in any methodologically sound poll.Since it’s hard to demonize Biden, Republicans have tried another tack: diminishing the president. They suggest Biden is a mere puppet with other, more liberal Democrats pulling the strings.
