That's the big question. This is the election cycle when the Democrats are scraping the bottom. They didn't have a single strong candidate in the primaries. They don't have a strong candidate who didn't run. They have very few options. Cuomo, terrible as he's been, is probably the strongest. Jmo.
Not necessarily. If Sanders doesn't win on the first ballot (and he doesn't have enough delegates to do that), round two is a free for all. Plus Democrat delegates tend to be very loyal to the party honchos. If they're told never-Sanders, they will not pick him on the second ballot.
It's a two part question.
One, will Biden's obvious cognitive decline intensify to the point that not even the mindless TDS press can hide it.
Two, will the Democrats decide that ignoring Tara Reade now won't make it that much more devastating when Trump blows it up in the general.
Without a doubt the DNC is running risk assessments. Biden may not be the ultimate nominee. [But neither will Sanders.]
If those happen and it's not Biden then who do you think it will be?

Bernie Sanders is next in line. Bernie has the most delegates behind Biden. 3rd is Warren. They have to go through them first.
