I am not sure what is going to happen, I don't think it is obvious either way with Biden. Going by all my visits to numerous comment sections, seems at least online ( including most at WA PO), seem to be pro Biden on this. We have no real idea what those who aren't political junkies like we are, or not online all the time , what they really think. They matter a lot. They may not even know what has happened. The Morning Consult poll bothered me , seemed a bit too convenient , didn't go look at who specifically they polled or what criteria they used.
Anyway the only thing I do know is I am tired of arguing about it, and dealing with so much anger. I am not angry, I am sad, I don't think anyone did anything wrong or mean to me, granted, I am often in the group that doesn't get angry, or thinks politicians all have bad motives. I kinda give people the benefit of the doubt as far as motives go, because it is just guessing otherwise. This has turned into a lot more incivility and personal attacks..even from people supposedly on the same side as I am.
I think we have to wait and see what is going to happen, then everyone can make their own choices.
Also, re: Kamala, my concern isn't the left as much as the squishes, center right, swing, double haters etc...In sarah's pods she is very unpopular , even with other people of color.
I have heard repeatedly on here in the past that she isn't a good choice.
I know you guys dismissed the primary thing and I guess I get it intellectually , but , otherwise, it does bother me, period. What was the point if they can just cancel it and do what they want?
Anyway, been an awful week, and not sure how much more of this I can take.
SIgh
I wish they would come to a decision soon and end at least part of the misery, at least then I will know what is going on and I can decide from there whether to follow my instincts or not.
Please remember -- even saddened and bothered people can pull others behind them, either in the right direction or not. Please keep plugging away. What does Psalm 30 say? Verses 4 and 5 are just about my favorite scripture.

Thank you Vincent...
I am getting repetitive and was wondering if I should just give up
Angie:
I have been listening to Rachel Maddow and Joy Reid "Live at the Apollo" this evening. Look for it.
Ms Reid cites many examples of brave people facing their fears and anxieties.
Keep the faith!
