It's really awesome to see Democrats complain about the hand they've been dealt when they literally went through the deck and took the cards they wanted. I think if Harris ends up being the nominee, that will be as close to a white flag as we see in the 2024 election. Who else is going to want to jump on that grenade? Hillary? (The Clintons just endorsed Harris, so that looks unlikely.)

The other issue the Democrats have is that they're tied to the same crappy policies that Joe was tied to -- open borders, trillions in spending, men in women's sports, abortion until birth, etc.

I think it's possible that they have to run Harris because she's the only one with access to the campaign funds—assuming that fact is true. It's always about the money.

She'll probably lose, but can always claim to be the first black woman to be a presidential candidate, thus making history. Democrats seem to be really impressed by firsts.
