She seems creditable to me.
The Dems have blown it... they had four years:

All they had to do is pick a half decent candidate. Instead they are picking Creepy Uncle Joe who can't even remember what office is running for with a party platform heavy influenced by a socialist.
Investigate Tara Reade’s Allegations
Americans deserve to know more about a sexual assault accusation against the likely Democratic Party nominee.
Former Vice President Joe Biden, the Democrats’ presumptive nominee for president, has forcefully denied allegations of sexual harassment and assault made against him by Tara Reade, a former staff assistant in his Senate office.
[...]
Mr. Biden has set higher standards for himself. That has been central to his appeal. His campaign is founded on the promise of restoring sanity, civility and decency to the presidency. Even if certainty isn’t possible in this matter, the American people deserve at least the confidence that he, and the Democratic Party, have made every effort to bring the truth to light.

Democrats had four years to strengthen their party and failed
The Democratic Party has had since November 8, 2016, to work on its plan for securing the presidency this year. With so much time, one would think that its 2020 strategy would be hard to beat. But instead of offering an inspiring fresh face and bold plans, the best it can do is more of the same in the form of an elder statesman surrounded by a long list of concerns.
The sexual assault allegations against the presumptive nominee, Joe Biden, have once again shed light on the rank hypocrisy that festers within the party that claims to stand on the moral high ground. Rather than demanding answers and suggesting even a minimal investigation, party leaders such as Nancy Pelosi stand beside Biden because he's their only hope. This allegiance to Biden is nothing but a semblance of unity. The party that is aching to replace President Trump can only desperately cling to what little they've created.
As reported on Thursday, the Democratic Party is so split that in an unprecedented move, the Biden campaign is allowing two-time party nominee loser, Sen. Bernie Sanders, to influence the upcoming convention. Not only will Biden "appoint Sanders supporters to fill hundreds of delegate slots that Sanders sacrificed by dropping out," but he will also "ensure representation for Sanders allies on the committees that, for instance, write the party’s policy platform." The reasons behind these moves are obvious. At the start of the primary season, Sanders seemed to be sailing to a potential nomination while Biden lagged behind. The attempts at appeasement indicate anything but harmony.

To anyone paying attention, it is evident that Democrats are in a sorry state. They have only themselves to blame.
