@amyedge @LouisIngenthron @Jennifer you just confirmed my suspicion that the DNC tends to underestimate threats like Trump. I’ve also witnessed firsthand in fighting. Again, unity is crucial.

@Leefromphilly @amyedge @LouisIngenthron I listen to a lot of political podcasts that feature very connected people and several last week said because of their own abysmal internal polling they didn't see any way for Biden to win and they were basically resigned to Trump winning. That is the kind of thing that made me mad, we all know what it will mean if Trump wins, and people working at the White House were like "oh well" and implying it won't be so bad if he wins. Im glad those people are out

@LouisIngenthron @amyedge @Jennifer the headlines are definitely shifting. Associated press says “Democrats rally around Harris“; also, three minutes ago, “prominent Democratic Governors back Harris”. Sounds like unity is finally the goal! About time, DNC!

@Leefromphilly @amyedge @Jennifer Unity was always the goal. We were just legitimately concerned that Biden no longer had what it took to defeat Trump after that debate. Most of us would rally around any competent candidate, and Harris is very competent and qualified, so it's a no-brainer.
