I’d prefer Klobuchar.
Whitmer not running
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan says she will not be running for president with Biden out. “My job in this election will remain the same: doing everything I can to elect Democrats and stop Donald Trump,” she wrote on social media.

It was inevitable I suppose. Hope Dems haven't screwed themselves over (again).
Kamala is now the only viable option, and I fear she isn't popular enough to win. Hope I'm wrong.

It'll be Kamala now. I doubt anyone will even challenge her ahead of the convention.
Alright dems, you've got a new, younger candidate against one of the weakest, most unpopular figures in history. Get it done.

I believe that is what Pelosi wants.
Surely him endorsing someone is reason enough for them not to go with that person?
Harris & Buttigeig?
Keep going, you'll stumble upon a funny one eventually.
Gotta disagree.
Democrats: Biden stepping down
WAHOOO!!!!!
Also Democrats: Biden nominates Harris
OH FFS

His heart's not really in that one.
Game on.
The right call from Biden. No chance at all that he could beat Trump. Remains to be seen if any other Democrat can, but at least there is a (slim) chance.
Please offer some choices in the convention. Though I wonder if anyone is willing to challenge if Kamala begins picking up the backing of power brokers within.
Kamala is uninspiring, but it would be suicide to have a contest. Need to rally around her and hope for the best.
Donald's reaction
Finally, the stubborn old man did the right thing, and stepped aside.
The election can begin, it will remain to be seen how viable Harris is, surely more than Biden, at least.

It’s telling that even after Biden’s endorsement none of the top democrats are even mentioning Harris in their farewell tweets.
The convention will be the coronation of Harris. Absolutely no chance it will be open.
It will be Harrish and Shapiro. They can;t afford to lose Penn
It’s necessary for Biden too step down of course it is, but boy do they need a capable candidate too step in
Harris is clearly not that
Harris is clearly not that
I bet he knew days ago. Probably just Biden his time.
Harris
Who would you want?
They're running a candidate with a pulse?
That does seem like a smart move.

Harris and VP buttigeig would implode antiwokeness
Wouldn’t it be a suicide for Democrats? Isn’t she pretty much… well… not very clever, so to speak?
He can feck off
Michelle Obama would be a good option. Is that even possible?
Not sure what you are suggesting here. Is she dumb? Not at all.
A good option for what ?
Can people shut up about Michelle already?
So does the Democratic convention next month turn into an election now? How many votes does a candidate need to win?
Inevitable really. Biden is and always was a puppet for the democrats. Not just the past 4 years but Obama used him to his advantage as well.
He appeals to the type of voter that isn't a safe vote for the democrats, in some ways the same voters who are just as easily seated by Trump. Obama recognised this and it worked to their advantage again in 2020.
