CNN's new poll: Trump leads Biden 49/43. Trump leads Harris 47/45. Some differences: —Independents: Biden -10%. Harris +3%. —People of color: Biden +21. Harris +29. The side-by-side:
So, same as last survey?

This is showing Harris out-performing Biden, especially with independents, which might be a first. And if that's a real trend, it makes the case for her nomination that much stronger.

It does, yeah. Still don't think it happens, but this leaves the door open. I have no idea how to feel about that at this point.

If it really has to be done (and I still very much hope it doesn't have to be) it needs to be by way of Biden's resignation. And not just a quick speech. We're talking a big emotional public ceremony where Harris is anointed the Chosen One and we get a FEW days of favorable headlines at least.

Agreed. I regard those who think Biden can resign from the campaign but not the presidency with suspicion. It's why the open convention talk is silly. Not only does no other candidate have the campaign infrastructure, but if Biden can't run for president, he can't run the White House.
