Biden stepping down

May be obvious but I need to say it....
The most important thing is that the enthusiasm that has been created for Kamala will carry down ballet for the Senate and House races!
What a lot of people are not conscious of is that all the things that Biden accomplished was done with a 51 Senate majority, 2 of which were major A-holes. FDR and Johnson accomplished a lot but had a major Democratic Senate.

Here in Maryland. She and Kamala are good friends and have campaigned together in the past. Hopefully in the future, too.

by the level of unity from the party but I think it remains to be seen how much real enthusiasm is out there.

And there’s only 100 days left. But there will be ups and downs and never underestimate Trump / MAGA, this is going to be a tough race

The excitement is real. It’s more than it was for Obama even in my neck of the woods.

I thought the headline was an announcement that Biden was resigning the presidency. That's just about the last thing I'd want to see.

I've been listening to arguments against this, and it still seems like a net positive for her chances.
