OH REALLY?
After coming in fourth in Iowa, Joe Biden is taking today off with just days before the New Hampshire primary:
Five days from the New Hampshire primary — and one day from a high-stakes debate — Joe Biden has no events in the state. And a charter plane last night flew from Manchester, NH, to Wilmington, Delaware. pic.twitter.com/byoobThTpB

Could it be something his aides told Politico?
Several Biden aides had choice words to describe what led to the former VP’s disappointing fourth place finish.
“It was a cluster-f—” said one. “A shit show,” said another. “A f—ing disaster,” said a third https://t.co/NZUWlM3qhi

Anyway, Team Biden is trying to put on a happy face:
Humbled by a disappointing showing in the Iowa caucuses, @JoeBiden is hoping for something quite different: that New Hampshire will make him the second coming of “the Comeback Kid.” https://t.co/OqT8UbbtGM

Which sounds like the same BS he fed his supporters in Iowa before getting crushed:
Just days prior to the Iowa caucuses, Joe Biden supporters received a private presentation that was considerably rosier than the actual outcome https://t.co/NZUWlM3qhi
