I feel for the guy. But I also can't help but feel that if he had announced after the '22 midterms "after an extremely productive legislative session, and an election where my party held up well, I feel it's time to step aside and allow a new generation to step in" he'd be going down as like, an American Cincinnatus.

Just not a great day.

Alas.

Matt is misjudging Kamala in two important ways:

- She's well below "replacement-level". She's unappealing to many people. Trump will clobber her.

- I don't see her winning an open vote at the convention. If these people are choosing between Josh Shapiro, Big Gretch, and Kamala, who exactly is voting for Kamala?

If Obama is going to be the heavy and tell Joe it's over, he should tell Kamala as well.

If you're in it to save democracy, save democracy. No half measures.
