The timing is very bad.

And there is no obvious person with the name recognition, poll numbers, etc. to beat Trump.

Biden appears to be bouncing back, and the Dem leadership is circling the wagons around him.

So at the highest levels the decision has been made.
But we had a right to ask questions and think it through.

Now the biggest problem is to stop the infighting and bring some unity into the equation.
