The only nominee with a campaign with hundreds of millions of dollars (non transferable) in its war chest is Biden. The only nominee to be toe to toe in favorability ratings is Biden. (Which was why he decided he had to go again.) The only nominee who has a 3.5 year record of actually extremely popular priorities and proven success in them is… Biden. Polls prove it.
A brokered convention after primaries that proved the ratio of voters supporting Biden were higher than those supporting Trump…
He has never been good at debates, has a lifelong stutter, and had a cold. He took cold medication and a combination of all that wasn’t great especially when the Gish gallop of lies went on. His performance improved as he went on. So. Millions of dollars, including a large portion of first time grassroots donors came in over the next few days. In other words the actual grassroots aren’t giving up on Biden.
But consider why Biden has not been able to gain traction in the press. The New York Times has been aggrieved against him. This isn’t conjecture on my part. Multiple articles exist to discuss that.
And it’s not just the press. It’s right wing billionaires like Sinclair consolidating local television stations and centralizing broadcasts and having newscasters reading slanted reporting against him. Aaron Rupar here on Substack has reporting about that.
In other words, there are more than probably good reasons why another random Democratic candidate would not do well.
You may not like it. I may not like it. It is good to consider reality.
A president does not govern alone. A president has an administration that works under them and with them. Biden has experienced staff, with very low departures from his cabinet versus other administrations. Only one has left thus far. Stability in other words.
Biden has a vice president who has been crisscrossing the country rallying support on reproductive freedom. The proportion of first time voters being women has been astronomical compared to previous periods of registration. If and when it is necessary to step in, she will, as have multiple vice presidents.
Most importantly, only one nominee has already opened hundreds of field offices, who help with a range of things before Election Day, including helping people with their voter registration. During voting, they coordinate getting people to the polls.
I think the "team" emphasis is key. Biden's team has been stellar. Face them against the likes of Stephen Miller, DumJr., Mike Flynn, even the likely VP pick J.D. Vance who hates Trump but whose raw ambition has forced his religio-political conversion. Contrast the Biden team's results with the ego-maniacal stand-offs in the House that's resulted in paralysis. The Team Approach is also a stark contrast to the Monarch approach the SC has conferred on any single sociopath.
