    I swapped from calling for Biden to stay to calling for Biden to go once sitting Congresscritters spoke out in public asking him to step down, since the main advantage of incumbency is supposed to be the ability to preserve party unity, but I was still expecting a lot more ā€œDEMS IN DISARRAY HOW CAN THEY EVER WINā€ style narrative to take root. Thereā€™s still time for me to be disappointed, but as of right now Iā€™m pleasantly surprised.
