Why?
Question not answered.
Many others, too.
The Dems are in a pickle. They are hoping for voters to, as during 2020, to not ask questions.
I will be asking some. In this thread. Later this weeks.

He said why.
What I’ve been saying.
He doesn’t give us the best chance to win the election, which is of paramount importance. He’s acknowledging that.
What should you have asked in 2020 that you didn’t?

I told you just the other day that I didn’t take your advice back then —(to vote) — and wasn’t going to take your advice this time either: that Democrats just shouldn’t vote.
I think that in your heart you still know he’s a narcissist and a lunatic, so I’ll keep working on you.

Well, Democrats don't get to vote who their candidate is. That's for sure.wbtravis007 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2024 9:48 pmWhy you. I oughta … .Beebs52 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2024 7:57 pmUs? You don't vote...wbtravis007 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2024 6:48 pm

Which leads to one of my questions.
How can the Demcroats run on "We've got to save democracy" when they eliminate their own members' right to vote for their candidate?
14,465,519 Democrats voted for Joe Biden. But the party backroom managers have decided their votes didn't really count and pushed Joe out. If Joe hadn't run at all for re-election, I do not think Harris would have received a majority, let alone 87% of the vote. But "We've got to take away your right to vote in order to save your right to vote!" . Remember this when Harris campaigns that Trump and the Republicans will take away our voting rights.

Re: Why?
I voted for Biden in the Pennsylvania primary because the ballot had no other candidate (not even uncommitted). So the party wouldn’t be showing us voters any more respect if Biden remained the candidate. It was no better in 2020: I collected petitions to be a delegate for Klobuchar, the Floyd murder made her candidacy untenable, and Jim Clyburn picked Biden to be the nominee. Ditto in 2016, 2012, ... The GOP has had its own issues, with dueling primaries and caucuses in some states.BackInTex wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2024 8:38 amWell, Democrats don't get to vote who their candidate is.

Re: Why?
The delegates selected by the voters will determine the candidates on the ticket. Just like always. Those are the rules.BackInTex wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2024 8:38 amWell, Democrats don't get to vote who their candidate is. That's for sure.wbtravis007 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2024 9:48 pmWhy you.

I doubt that many voters will be persuaded by your argument and decide to vote for Trump because of it. But feel free to try to get them whipped up by it. Who knows? Maybe it will work.

Re: Why?
Why is it that the only people who are raising a stink about Harris getting the support of an overwhelming majority of the delegates are reporters and Republicans? They're also the main ones who have been claiming that Biden was too old and/or senile to run. Now, they're like the dog that chased the car and finally caught it. They don't know what to do. They're not upset that Harris is running. They're upset that she isn't the scatterbrained nitwit they portrayed her as for four years and that she's already taking it to the Republicans. If these "backroom managers" of yours selected Harris, they did a great job since everyone has come out in her favor. For all the talk about how "they" wanted their own candidate, no one has come forth to run against Harris, just as no one besides Dean Phillips and Marianne Williamson ran against Biden.BackInTex wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2024 8:38 am14,465,519 Democrats voted for Joe Biden.

The delegates will vote next week. Anyone who wants to can enter their name in the running. The fact is that incumbent presidents of either party who run for re-election rarely get any serious intra-party opposition.

Re: Why?
Just rewatched Biden’s address from last night.
Not only did he not state he would not continue to seek a second term (it was assumed the audience knew why he was addressing us) he did not state why. He mentioned something about time to pass the torch to a younger generation but did not explain why he felt like that. He said over the past few weeks it become clear to him but not why (we know what became clear to TPTB was he couldn’t win and they made it clear it was in his best interest, probably financially, that he “pass the torch”).
Now everyone who told us for months that Biden was the man for the job are telling us Kamala is the person for the job. At least the are consistent in that the aren’t telling the truth.
There is still a chance that by DNC time they’ll see the true stabilized polling for Harris and realize the torch needs to be handed off again. Should be fun to what.
