Joe Biden presently faces a challenge not unlike what Richard Nixon encountered back in September 1952 when he delivered his 'Checkers' speech: shifting voters’ attention from what he is (a politician surrounded by financial murkiness) to whom he is (relatable to the average American).
Perhaps this doesn’t matter if Biden has a “moment” a week from Tuesday – a chance to reverse his fortunes at the next Democratic debate with a one-liner or a put-down of an intrusive rival that shows a spark absent up to this point.
If I were the Biden campaign – and this will sound repugnant to Democrats who despite the name I’m about to drop — there’s a past national candidate who shows how to reverse a skid: Richard Nixon. Accused of taking $18,000 from his supporters for political use, Nixon could see the writing on the wall: pressure mounting for Nixon to step down as Dwight Eisenhower’s running mate. For a lawmaker on a fast track , the vice-presidential hopeful seemed to be on an even faster track . . . to political oblivion. – and did something unprecedented back in the early days of television: the first-ever nationally televised address by a candidate, offering his side of the story.
Third, Nixon cleverly pivoted – from defense to offense. His opponents were trying to pay him back for his anti-communist crusades, he contended.
