Biden Out

In an emotional speech at the Des Moines Science Center, Joe Biden, surrounded by his family, announced he is ending his bid for the White House. He thanked his supporters and his staff and said there were many good Democrats still in the race. He signed off by quoting the Irish poet Seamus Heaney: " History says, don't hope on this side of the grave. But then, once in a lifetime the longed for tidal wave of justice can rise up, and hope and history rhyme."
