Considering how many good things he did and tried to do, Joe Biden has been widely unappreciated during his four years in the White House. He has governed well to the left of expectations, which probably pissed off the centrists who backed him in the first place, but his policies were more liberal than his rhetoric, which left progressives unimpressed. Yet no matter how loud the drumbeats for replacing him got, those who wanted him gone could find only his age and frailty to confront him with. His announcement yesterday was greeted with the equivalent of “Don’t let the screen door hit you on the way out.”
This wasn’t NSYNC’s highest-charting single – it only reached No. 4 in 2000 – but it’s considered the group’s signature song.
