    Before Biden dropped out his electability was quite high (in relative terms). With the way the electoral college works and Dems sucking at messaging he has a real shot despite the unpopular abortion stuff.

      It’s hard to reelect a President who is just so past his prime and where his old age is such a detriment that nobody can overlook it at the ballot box. But now that Biden has stepped aside and Trump is now getting put to task, the contrast is as evident as ever.

        The messaging has changed too, democrats are attacking, Harris and Walz are better communicators and Republicans have reverted to the Obama-era racism stuff that actually turns people off.

      People are downvoting but you are right. Momentum is going in the right direction (for now), but we’re still very much within the margin of errors and the race is at best a toss-up at the moment.
