    You dont need name/ brand recognition at this level. Its the presidency and there will only be two options. Its the wrong rule-stick for this level of race. If this were a house race or even a senate seat, sure. But not for whomever will carry the Democratic nomination.

    I fear a new candidate will only fracture us

    This is a weird talking point that has suddenly become very consistent.

    Bro. We’re already fully fractured and its Biden thats done the fracturing. Don’t fear the unknown: fear the known failure the commentators here have been telling you that you are pot-committed to. Thats a far far far bigger concern than not going to the convention with a candidate in hand.

      Yeah I can’t really agree with just about anything you said. We weren’t fractured until people decided the debate meant the world and his actual work in office right now doesn’t mean shit.

        You are living in a delusional fantasy. Biden’s polling was CATASTROPHIC before the debate. Why?

        Because Biden split the party in how he has handled Gaza.

        Its unbelievable the amount of delusion people around here try and persist with.

          Definitely not, maybe for terminally online people. But for most of the actual democratic american populace Gaza didn’t mean that much. Thats the sad truth, people mostly care about what’s happening at home, centrists especially.
