I wish I had the certainty of some people though, since I'm up to 5 changes of mind in the last 3 days.

Many of them have spent the last week going out there and tanking him anonymously.

Harris would need him to have a chance to win PA and MI (too many pesky midwestern whites). Or she can try Cooper for the alternate route of GA/NC.

If she’s the nominee, I hope she picks Shapiro. Then it’s TWO prosecutors.

If every politician and donor had communicated their distress privately to the campaign instead of publicly, Ds would be in better shape no matter what happens.

That's just nonsense. He got the most progressive agenda in my lifetime through Congress with the slimmest of majority. He pantsed the GOP on the debt ceiling and aid to Ukraine.

It's more like given the choice between a fascist and someone who acts like a fascist , people will vote for the real fascist all the time. Labour is picking up a little, but Farage is picking up most of the Cons votes so they're splitting them and losing seats.

They’re just blowing smoke. Every state has a statue with exactly how many days after the convention, or before Election Day, a major political party has to certify the nominee for the ballot.

Man, I love Joe, but this is just the opposite of what they need to do. Instead of making the case of why he should run for re-election, this makes it sound like he should resign today.

They never understood how much of his support in 2016 was "anti-Hillary", and when she wasn't running in 2020, those people went to other options they liked more instead of him.

They're just blowing smoke about the ballot access. There are plenty of things to worry about, and this isn't even in the top 100.

DeWine signed the bill on June 2nd to extend their deadline until the end of August. Dems didn't know if he was going to do that, so they've been planning a virtual roll call for end of July. They're supposedly going through with that anyway.

Ballot access isn't an issue no matter what happens. There's no nominee before the convention, and each state has a deadline after the convention.

I think the ones like Garin did, or Messina did for Obama--where they drill down to specific areas or groups they feel are the deciders--work better. You're right that there's so many assumptions built in to polling, so why not make one more, & not bother asking people in CA or NY what they think.

Which is why she would only replace him as nominee. Biden does not need to resign. He can do the job of governing, but looks like he can’t do that and campaign simultaneously.

I don’t really want Mike Johnson next in line. And it’s hard to govern and campaign simultaneously, at any age. Harris would need to be free to do a major campaign blitz.

DeWine signed the bill to make their deadline late August. The DNC didn't know if he would, so they've always been planning a virtual roll call later this month to officially nominate Biden.

Ignore them. That is not possible. There is no nominee before the convention, so there is no one to "replace" on a ballot. No state has a ballot deadline before the convention (OH changed theirs to after).

I think lots of swing voters hear "court expansion" and think Biden's planning to pass far left stuff. Basically, like Trump but mirror. Biden's greatest asset is his commitment to democracy. "I'm running for President, not king. If you want a king, vote for the convicted felon."

I think PredictIt's gone overboard, down to 28 cents here. You can buy 1 Biden and sell 3 Michelle Obamas to finance it.

A disaster. Do you think America will vote for a party who allowed a "cognitively impaired" person to be president for months now? It is far better to just say he no longer can do both jobs and governing is more important, so he is withdrawing from the campaign.
