The age thing was already a concern. Now it's a panic. Even top Dems are avoiding question of whether to remove Biden.

The debate was a catastrophe. It really couldn't have gone much worse.

And replacing the incumbent last minute would also be catastrophic.

Well yeah it's a catastrophe. You can't avoid it. Realistically, Trump was already edging out Biden in the polls, including the 6 swing states.

They need a new candidate immediately.. but nobody else who has the party blessing (newman, kamala, Michelle, etc) polls as good against Trump as Biden.

So what do they do? Damned if you do, damned if you dont. They are probably goinf to lose the election.
