You know what is truly bizarre - in most countries (think of the UK, France, Italy, to name a few) the months we have before the election would be considered more than long enough to get an alternative candidate, if the Democrats could simply get their act together. Honestly the incredibly long US campaigning season is one of the most unproductive use of time and resources. Rather than govern, most politicians seem to spend most of their time campaigning, preparing to campaign, fund raising, preparing to fund raise. What complete rubbish.

The rapid coalescence around Harris is more a reflection of the huge interest in seeing an alternative emerge than in her actual candidacy IMO. The groundswell push on the left for Biden dropping out is growing by the day. It’s amazing to watch and I hope we’ll see him take action by this weekend.
