Right now...anyone, and I mean anyone in the democratic party that can turn the narrative away from age and competence to policy will help the Democrats.   They need to get back to talking about the things they want to do and they simply cannot do that with Biden as the current nomination.  Its all anyone cares about and wants to talk about.

Can Kamala win?  I give her better odds than Biden....but I don't see it as a landslide.

Head to head against Trump:

Biden +200

Kamala +160

With a healthy vig.  It's really not that close.

Even Obama is encouraging him to drop out. It was painful watching Biden try to get out of a car.

I predict Trump will give a unifying speech tonight and barely mention Biden. It will be total bullsh!t and after it’s over the MAGA folks will gush here and elsewhere and say “he won the election! It’s over!” But it isn’t. And within a few weeks Trump will return to his “retribution” self. But just watch: the adulation tonight for this felon will be truly sickening.

Disagree.  I think tonight he talks about how dramatic the shooting was, how strong he is for surviving, how he's gonna keep fighting for all of us against the deep state, and repeat a bunch of the same lies he always does (Ecuador emptying prisons, he had best economy in the world, etc)

She certainly energized them in her primary run

NYT now reporting that Biden hasn’t fully made up his mind but is leaning towards quitting. And it has to happen quickly. 
 

Let’s be clear: this is Trump’s biggest nightmare. The MAGA folks absolutely do NOT want this to happen.

I wish you would give a link to these things you say are being reported, because I haven't seen an exact confirmation of that. 

I did find this, which is close:

https://x.com/kylegriffin1/status/1814050097132605523

NYT: Several people close to President Biden believe he has begun to accept the idea that he may not be able to win in November and may have to drop out of the race.

[thegeneral 2,913]

Dropping out after the RNC always made sense. From an optics and managing the message stand point. Take all the wind out of that and everything now shifts to the Dems and managing this. 

It would be very cool to watch if they could have a brokered convention from the drama side but it seems that won’t happen. Have heard some pros talk about how it work out conceivably and they described it as full of landmines and not so good.

That coupled with Kamala having the access to the Biden Campaign cash and the optics of bypassing her make it seem very likely she is the one.

[thegeneral 2,913]

If Kamala does get it she should immediately ask for like 3 debates.

I would say compared to Biden this is an improvement in the chances. Polls seem to say so as well but we will see. 

From a theater stand point this will be very good if Biden steps down. Lots to be worked out, not much time. Will be great.

The floor has totally fallen out under Biden.  The poor man looked like he was going to collapse getting off the plane when he returned from Vegas.  Yes I want Trump to win, and yes I think Harris would be slightly more likely to win than Biden, but I think they should let the man retire.  He's not capable and clearly in steep decline.  I also am not fully invested in these Harris polls holding as close, imagined nominees and candidates tend to do better than when they are all of a sudden in a race.  I do think she is slightly more likely to win.  If somehow they get to a Shapiro type candidate, that's the best odds for the D's.  But Shapiro would start at such a disadvantage from money and name recognition, I think he's better to wait than to fight this uphill fight.

Who is stopping Biden from retiring? This is all him.

I agree there may be better choices but at this point it seems unlikely they could move from Kamala for a few reasons.

You're right on both points.  It is him, and I think his wife is pushing him towards staying.  That's just an opinion.  But I agree they can't move past Kamala Harris.  The share D's are polling with the black vote is too low for them to win right now.  They can't pass Harris up given how loyal black women are to the party and needing to improve their overall demographic numbers.

Of course he won't endorse Harris.  He does nothing for black folks.  She was forced on him.

[IGotWorms 4,057]

I’d be pretty surprised if Biden didn’t endorse Harris.

I guess there could be some thinking that it’d be a better look to have an open process. But there’s no time for that, especially for lesser known candidates to get themselves known.

I have heard this thinking in Jill. Who knows. I am pretty shocked that he decided to run again. Ego is a helluva a drug and being the Prez if you are so inclined it probably bad ass. 

Totally agree with you on Harris. If Biden had announced 6 months ago maybe a regular process could have played out?

If the dems dont make Kamala the nominee, and Biden doesnt vigorously endorse her,  the dems lose a ton of votes. They have no choice

[JuneJuly 193]

Head to head the only person with worse odds than Kamala is Biden.  They are literally the two worst candidates on the bench.  Newsome, Clinton, Whitmer and Michelle all have better odds than Kamala.  

[JuneJuly 193]

Kamala -275

Biden +410

You can only get so many votes with the 1am ballot dumps. Biden wasn’t keeping it close enough to work. They’re hoping Kamala can. 

[Reality 3,099]

You can't trust a single politician that's been covering for Biden. They are complicit. 

If he bows out of the race, he needs to resign the presidency, he's admitting he's compromised.
