who ends up on the democratic ticket. We can be mad, but we cannot NOT vote! We cannot give up this country over pouting.
I hope they stick with Biden, but NOTHING will keep me from voting for the democratic nominee on election day.

(27,396 posts)So far, the only names Ive seen floated are Harris, Newsom, Whitmer, and possibly Shapiro, none of which seems to be further right of Joe.

(27,396 posts)In fact, I think that the only people likely to be chosen as a replacement candidate would be those who had been vocal Biden supporters. Otherwise, it would look too obviously like a coup.

That's how little I care about the "corporate" label, if it comes down to a "corporate" candidate vs. Trump.
TRUMP HAS ALREADY DESTROYED WOMEN'S RIGHTS. AND HE WILL CONTINUE MARCHING TOWARD THE HANDMAID'S TALE.
Whoever is the Dem nominee - I do hope it continues to be Biden, I think anything else is stupid and wrong - they MUST draw a contrast vs. Trump, and women's rights will have to be part of it.
So, as much as I *hate* the idea of replacing Biden with a craptastic candidate of some form, I will get my a** to the polls and vote for that Democratic nominee, no matter fucking what. Because NO ONE can be more craptastic than Trump and the GQP.

(5,977 posts)Remember the outrage at Seth Moulton et al when they tried to take out Nancy Pelosi as speaker? We all swore we'd primary them. It never happened. Moulton is still there. Tim Ryan probably would be, too, if he hadn't run for the senate.

(27,396 posts)was that more Americans dont want Trump back in the White House than do, so, if the people who dont want Trump commit to vote for the Democratic nominee (whoever that is), we win. Period.

(516 posts)I feel like democratic leadership is failing us right now with calls for Biden to step down, but we have to stay smart and stay the course. A democrat, ANY DEMOCRAT, must win this election.
