I am happy imagining the relief and excitement you all are going to feel when this thing you are digging your heels in against so hard finally happens. We are about to get a chance to try something new, with courage and confidence. You’re terrified of it now. When it happens you will be exhilarated.
Let's not get crazy. I want Harris to step up because the pros outweight the cons. But I can concede that there's downside risk. And no one's going to feel better until the polls stop looking close (and probably not even then).
In case it helps, as I said in other replies, I am ready to bring this same excitement, hope, and optimism to the campaign if it’s still Biden after all this is over. But we are going to need those things one way or another.
When will it be over? My concern is that it already looks like Biden is digging in his heels, so when does it finally sink in that he's not changing course?
Here's hoping tonight's interview ends it, one way or another. A defiant "I'm not dropping out" is probably the best we can hope for. (I doubt he'd choose an ABC interview to say he's stepping aside; that would be a White House address.)
