Also, posts like this from Kristol et.al., are guilty of a “self-fulfilling prophecy.” They drive people's opinion more than the lousy debate performance and Biden’s normal aging.

Bill and Tim actually talked about this on yesterday's pod. Their argument is that swing voters are also the lowest information voters, whose opinion isn't driven by Kristol et. all. The people reading this stuff are people who are going to vote for the Dem ticket no matter what.
No worries--they did an interesting discussion of the criticisms in that pod, and Tim said he's hoping to have someone on today who will argue the case for Biden staying more fully, so you should probably keep an eye out for that!
When does the Bulwark podcast usually drop? I've been refreshing the link for the last hour. I want to know if my prediction on who it would be is correct. Tim said the only criterion was somebody with political experience, no so-called influencers, which is exactly right, IMO. I think it will be Simon Rosenberg. This am, Ezra Klein dropped a discussion from last Friday with NYT columnist Jamelle Bouie who has been making some of the strongest arguments against Biden dropping out (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyUXGLCU-y8&list=PLdMrbgYfVl-szepgVpArP0obwYgbKdfvx&index=1). Maybe him?
Thanks, Ed M
You nailed it.

Thank you, Rebecca. I am not sure that is the case, but I understand its reasoning.
