Yeah.

Biden (and H. Clinton before him) would be considered well to the right of the political compass in any Western democracy barring the US.

Biden's political positions have a very close overlap with those of G W Bush from the 2000 and 2004 elections. Which is a testament to just how far right the US political compass has swing in the last two decades.

Except it would really be a Harris/Biden administration.
I don't agree, but it wouldn't matter because there would be no difference anyway.

Either they get Trump again or they get Biden who is very conservative and has a lot of conservative supporters due to his conservative platform.

Here's a good article by a conservative who is voting for Biden:
Conservatives should reject Trump, vote Biden to preserve US moral core
Just a minute. Didn't Biden make Harris his Vice? Are you claiming she doesn't have an extreme left positions in her voting records? Let's just assume as you say Joe is a real conservative. So he's willing to roll the dice being his age at 78 that if God forbid something happened to him you'd have a leftists as President? So tell me again why a Conservative should vote for him?

I keep hearing this and I just have to wonder why it would even matter. What difference does it make switching one for the other?

That's not what conservatives have been saying for the past 6 months that "Sleepy Joe" lacked the mental faculties to be anything more than the "pawn" of the more radical elements of the Democratic Party!

Actually if Biden were to win he would only be considered at most 1/2 conservative because he is only 1/2 there and Harris would be considered the other 1 1/2 and liberal at that.
Well I'll tell yeah, for a guy whose half there, you'd think Trump could have handled him a bit better than he did at any of the debates.

Assuming you thought ANY part of trump is still "there".

Biden is conservative by most standards. The only countries to the right of the US are Islamic theocracies.
Yep....the DNC platform calls for abortion on demand....which Biden is following....tell me how conservative that is.....

Kamala Harris is in no sense a leftist. She leans very lightly Social Democratic at best. She’s still the woman who kept jails packed and scoffed at the idea of legal marijuana. Conservatives have very little to fear from her. That’s been the whole point of this ticket. To nudge us back away from crazy fascism without venturing into unfamiliar territory in the process.

If you take out abortion and gay marriage the Democrats like Biden and Harris are completely conservative. As for abortion and gay marriage, most Republicans are actually for those things but they use those topics as political tokens to gain votes from conservative Christians.
