After the Schumer leak, this had to happen.

It has to be Kamala and anyone thinking otherwise is dumb.

And I don't know if Kamala can win. I don't know if she could do better than Joe would do. But I know she'll do better than what would happen if Joe had a second debate like the first debate.

If nothing else, this keeps it close.

This feels very energizing. I think you'll see democrats get a lot more excited about the election now. They'll have a great time watching the talking heads arguing over who should be VP. The contrast between team hold-onto-power-no-matter-what and team democrat will not be missed on low information voters.

she’ll do better than what would happen if Joe had a second debate like the first debate.

Or, what would happen if there was no second debate, which I'm sure is what the Republicans were planning for. Why consider a second debate when the only thing it could do is make Biden look better? They would have used every rule and excuse to get out of having a second debate so that the only image voters had of Biden was from the first one.
