So is not replacing him, and the hand wringing around it being a problem is a significant contributor to this mess lasting as long as it has.
The right answer is to go to an open convention and duke it out the way its always been done in the past. At least bring back some semblance of democracy to the Democratic party; you’ll get a SHIT ton of coverage on the matter; it will turn into a real horse race and get people engaged, and then you’ll have a candidate is at least competitive, which Biden isnt.
You shouldnt be scared of replacing Biden. Thats like being scared of pulling over in a car with a flat tire.
The only people duking it out at the convention will be delegates. The party clearly thinks that they know better than the voters and they’re not gonna stop now.
Like the entire Democratic party keeps fucking up every chance they get because they’re so self assured and won’t listen to criticism. This has been the story of the last 25 fucking years.
Do you really expect me to believe they’ll turn around now and make a good choice? I don’t. Just like Hillary and Biden were bad choices, they’re just gonna choose another fucking bad choice.
I’m not fretting about it, I think it’s fucking stupid to leave the choice with the same idiots who fucked it up to begin with. They’re not gonna suddenly let the voters decide. They’re gonna let already determined party delegates decide. The same fucking “superdelegate” insiders who chose Hillary Fuckwit Clinton, the only person who was audacious enough to be able to lose to Donald Trump (and to this day walks around blaming everyone but herself). The same fuckwits who hid Biden’s clearly serious age issues, just somehow hoping it would work out. You expect those people to suddenly field a non-fucktarded-candidate?
Sure. And I agree. But I’m over it. Any one polling over 45%. I dont care any more. I just want someone who can beat Trump. Its obvious to everyone with eyes that isn’t Biden.
Thanks, we’re really all on the same side here. We’re all sick of this and just want it to be over and it to not be Trump. I’m with you on that, fucking ANYONE but him, please.
Well, you and I are.
There are plenty of people here, I suggest a majority, who have deluded themselves into thinking Biden is the only possible path to beating Trump, rather than a guaranteed L.
This cohort is the same cohort that has effectively put us in such a dramatically weak position to beat Trump. They are the real problem and if allowed to go unchecked, will lose this election for us.
