I am starting to see the rationalization that Dems are committing themselves to. Cenk is shocked at the denial going on when he debates politicos about Biden’s fitness (and even if you are still in denial about that, let’s just say PERCEIVED fitness by a majority of voters…) I suspect some who appear to be in denial about Biden’s viability are secretly not, because they believe that for Biden to step aside would be to invite a Race-Card War over Harris in the Dem Party, leading to defeat. So, the defective thinking goes, better we get Biden across the finish line, then we can get Harris in on an Article 25 of Biden (presuming the Repubs get the receipts/testing, which if you look at this testimony by a Dem neurologist is a fairly inevitable thing…)
This is dead wrong. The Race-Card War that a replacement candidate could introduce can be avoided by having a fair Open Convention nominating process such as I propose on this thread:
https://discuss.tyt.com/t/if-we-get-an-open-convention
If she wins those two rounds of votes with a clear consensus, then it’s hers.
If the DNC does not agree to such a fair nominating process, then it’s 2016 all over again; people will sit out Election Day.
There’s just no way Biden can win now after this week of repeated disasters. To anoint Harris is also to lose. There is only one path to victory I can see: queue up the next replacement candidate (which can be Harris, should she win using the nominating process such as I describe…)
