    I also thought it was too late to replace Biden and they should have done it at least six months earlier. But now I think the timing is pretty much perfect.

    Republicans focused all their efforts on bashing Biden instead of getting people excited for their own policies. Now that whole campaign has just imploded on itself and there’s not enough time to come up with and enact something new. Plus, Harris and Walz have all the attention now, they dominate the news.

      I think there would be enough time if the Republicans brought in the cavalry, i e. experienced spinners of truth and benders, if not breakers, of rules like Karl Rove. But even for these people with absolutely no regard for political mores the maga movement is too extreme to stomach. Too many of the GOP brain trust have been alienated, which is a stroke of luck for the Dems.
