Biden already dropped.

Voters in Michigan that voted for Whitmer.

On top of that, you can add that there is no advantage to getting a candidate from California. This is why I never understood Harris as the VP pick. Ideally, you get someone from a swing state like Whitmer.

You mean not until the entire voting system is overhauled and the first pass the fence post system is abandoned.

This means Harris shouldn't have an advantage. She only had the advantage that she could use the funds that Biden raised.

While not a Biden hater (but also not a supporter), this is how I feel too.

I can only speak for myself, but yes.

The guy that had no political motives and was just trying to hit the highest valued target he could? That's a piss poor leader.

Cool strawman you're beating up. I think the majority of us that didn't want Biden is because he didn't have a good path to victory. We didn't want to just stand by and watch the train wreck happen. Harris isn't much better, but at least she is better, and I will be on board with that of that's who is chosen. I would rather see Whitmer be on the top of the ticket though.

Fair point about not watching the debate because Trump pisses you off. I did watch the debate live. It's not hyperbole, Biden was that bad. It felt like watching Biden lose the race in real time. He couldn't form complete thoughts. I know he is normally a gaf machine, but this was different. It wasn't struggling to find the right word, it was struggling to find a thought. It honestly reminded me of when my Grandma was struggling with brain cancer and how she struggled to speak. It was excruciating to watch because I've liked what he had done as president. Him staying in would have ruined his legacy and potentially undone everything he has fought for if Trump beat him.

Lol, you kept fighting that strawman "other people" and it's all pointless now. Biden dropped.

Yet Biden was so bad that Trump was far more coherent than Biden was. That's how bad of a candidate Biden is.

You're not wrong. But Trump is far more coherent than Biden. It's all lies, but they were coherent lies at the debate.

You keep saying that, but this post is a list of others. Clearly you're just not paying attention.

You're kidding yourself if you think he's still sharp.

The disunity that can be solved by Biden dropping? The GOP loves running against Biden. He's an easy target.

The two biggest ones are already named here. Newsom and Gretchen.

You're literally in a thread that started with a picture of names of others...

Worst case of Biden is him losing like the polls indicate. Harris is not a suitable replacement either like you said. But there are plenty of others.

I mean, ultimately, I'm voting for whoever the democrats put on the ticket for that very reason. However, I would really like to see someone who has a chance of winning be on that ticket instead of just watching the train wreck happen in front of us.
