If you look at the list of all the other big national level politicians that were there for this endorsement you might get the impression that Joe Biden was being hidden away so there were no embarrassing gaffes to deal with.Meh, these guys dont show up for every endorsement. A lot of times there isnt so much as an event, but a statement is released, as when Daley endorsed Obama during his first run. This was a minor press conference.
I agree that it looks increasingly like Bidens elevator is stuck a few floors short of the top, but it doesn't strike me as unusual that he wasn't here for this.
He'll be campaigning here at events. Sanders is here in Grant Park at this very moment. We'll see him at the debates. They may be trying to limit his exposure, and probably are, as they did with Hillary, but there's nowhere to hide really.
It certainly struck me that way.
