49. Why would anyone "attack" you for an opinion?

It's certainly possible that Biden could have health issues or die before he completes a second term.

Harris would not prevent me from voting for a Biden/Harris ticket, but she's no Hillary Clinton, that's for sure. We'd be OK if that were to come to pass, but she has not emerged as the great mobilizing leader that we need. We need to keep looking for "the One".
