All undecided voters in a U.S. swing states focus group hosted by pollster Frank Luntz said President Biden should be replaced as the Democratic nominee after watching his first presidential debate against former President Trump.

    That’ll never happen. But I think you’re right. The instant goodwill would be enormous.

    Have they even bothered with the next “rising star” at all?

      Man I’ve never seen media like this. I’ve watched:

      • 2 different NYT podcasts
      • Jon Stewart’s comments
      • Kari Couric’s discussion.
      • NPR’s post-debate
      • Washington Week’s round-table, led by The Atlantic editor-in-chief
      • Pod Save America (former Obama/Biden staffers)
      • Silver’s analysis.

      … And the sentiment behind Biden stepping down is vast. Talk behind closed-doors is that US House Democrats are extremely worried about their races given downballot effect.

      I think it must be done or I’d absolutely bet on Trump winning in November, sadly.
