Last week the calculus was: Let the Democratic vote depress itself, we'll stoke ultra-conservative engagement with Vance. Now it's a completely different equation, with the Dems getting fired up and ready to go on the attack.

happy to report even before Biden stepping down, Vance is being excoriated in international media as a serious threat from some extremist well funded catholic 'think tank' and then onto, how fucking moronic the Trump campaign is for going near him?


Fun and joy ahead watching that campaign fall apart :)

I'm already bored by the new direction the show is taking. Sounds like the rest of the season will be "Kamala is a ho" vs. "all criticism of Kamala is racist and sexist". Tired, rehashed dialogue from previous seasons.

I hope the show writers saved something big for the season finale. It will be hard to top the assassination attempt.

I don't know if all criticism of Kamala is sexist, but calling her a "ho" is.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

The fact the power elites of the party are throwing all there weight behind her is massively disgusting. You can't tell me there couldn't be a emergency primary of some . She and her administration have a deplorable record
This will be a really hard sell.

RFK Jr offered to endorse Trump in exchange for a position in the Admin. I'm all for blowing up the FDA, but maybe not to replace it with healing crystals or w/e he's into. Medicare covering falconry classes?

A hard sell to who? The big chunk of people think it would be more disgusting to have some chaotic, non-unified clusterfucked opposition to Trump. Most of the people who think the Biden admin has a deplorable record are voting for Trump no matter what, and the rest are a small minority anyway. They should have had a primary back in the winter/spring, but it's not necessarily nefarious for people to change their mind about Biden's fitness, where they are joe six-pack or some spooky power elite.

So small minorities don't matter? I don't agree with most people that think the last 4 years was a complete shit show are voting for Trump. Unfortunately in America most people don't vote. They may though if there was a more centered candidate.

They matter! But it would be a much harder sell to everyone else to have some disorganized dysfunctional process happen now. But we might get that anyway.

Ok your point is valid of course and you are probably correct that it to would end up being a disorganized shit show.
This has been that anyway. It took the massive donors
of the party to go on the attack pull campaign dollars for Biden to raise the white flag.
I believe Biden needs to resign. If he dropping out because all of a sudden he can't beat Trump that is very dangerous moving forward. Oh our candidate that was chosen in a democratic way is now polling poorly let's get a new one. Obviously Biden doesn't have faculties to do the job moving forward. So who is leading the country? To me this administration is a abject failure and should go down as one of the worst terms in history., but maybe that ship could be righted just a little.

I think the third bolded sentence mostly negates the concerns of the prior two. His senility and frailty or whatever you want to call it is getting worse. That's driving this.
