51/49

Convinced that, at this point, Biden has little choice but to bow out and that we've reached the last bump in this particular road. Listening this morning to Ezra Klein's interview with Tim Albert about the inner workings of the Tumor/Virus campaign on my way to my quarterly blood sacrifice clinched it: the only way to shift a campaign against an opponent who has done nothing but zero in on you is to remove yourself from the equation and throw every single one of their inner workings and preparations into tumult. My suspicion is, however, that Biden has already made his decision, and is waiting for the right time to do it. Covid (and Schiff, and Pelosi, and Schumer, and that 2/3 poll, and the money drying up) was (were) simply the proverbial straw: he was right, nothing he does will be enough; it’s too little, too late, especially when there’s only one way to change the biggest vulnerability. A damn shame – though hopefully one without an ignominious end.
