    Harris is the most viable option, but she’s also less charismatic than Biden, and is a “Monkey’s Paw” style answer to those on the left calling for a non-Biden candidate.

      Is she less charismatic than current Biden though…? I haven’t seen her speak in awhile but from what I remember it wasn’t that bad. Not a fan of her politics by any stretch but right now I’d support her in a heartbeat.

        Biden after the debate? Definitely less charismatic.

        Biden during the debate? Probably less charismatic.

        I’ve seen her get flustered by enough softball questions to have no faith in her ability to persuade the electorate of her competence, regardless of whether she is competent or not.

          It’s fucking amazing that these are the DNC’s top 2 picks out of 350 million people.

      Yeah, she doesn’t seem any more likable than Hillary (to hear some of the pundits), but that probably just comes down to misogyny, and piled on top of that - racism.

      If they are going to bother to replace Biden, I hope they go with Newsom. Not much of a lefty, but if the alternative is fascism…
