I think this is a huge positive for us Democrats. I adore Joe Biden, one the best presidents since FDR, but as I said earlier, the media had (unfairly) turned on him and weren't going to let up. They had their "Biden is not competent" narrative set and would have destroyed our democracy rather than reexamine their assumptions.
An open convention would be best, but even Kamala Harris as the nomine, with a young, vital, progressive VP will completely change the narrative. We need the same hope and enthusiasm we had with Obama. With young people engaged and enthusiastic we can blow the Republicans out the water up and down the ballot.
Tagline for our ticket? We are the future of America. Trump/Vance are it's past.

Biden just dropped out of the race. Not sure how I feel about it, other than we need to move on and unite!
He endorsed Kamala Harris for President.

I too would like us to get a lot more unified again. I think it will hopefully take a foothold during our convention. I read on the way here that some of the big money Democratic donors are starting to GET that their plan to upset Pres. Biden and move him out backfired. I don't put in links to these things as I think the same info is available to all of us — and frankly, while I think this part is true, it is hard to always trust what you hear these days.
I'm more inclined to believe something like that though simply because if they thought it was working they would never want even a slight appearance that it wasn't.
In passing, indeed it wasn't long yesterday until I actually found a snippet that there was something being put out on Trump's "medical" condition. Yep !! Just as I expected. Then I find out is coming from none other than Billy Boollicker himself, Dr. Ahem Rony Jackson. Well, Jackson is NOT Trump's Dr. and as far as I know wasn't at the hospital with Trump — well you get the idea here. I don't personally feel I have any more REAL information on this as we have had from the first. So, as far as I'm concerned — Trump still went to the hospital that night to get his ear and face washed.
I also read he has now switched to a much smaller flesh colored band aid. I am not so sure he even needs that, but perhaps you do have to keep up the charade in graduated stages. A bandage the size of the one he had on needs a step-down if one is to continue believing.
Still hearing how bad last RNC appearance and speech were. Won't get a fight from me on that. We turn it off, as did many others have a short period when he droned on and on about nothing. How many times can you say or infer in some way you are the greatest and everyone needs you. And this yet in a sing-song tired voice. Even CNN and others who usually praise to the nth. had to admit it did nothing for Trump and the RNC.
At any rate, it leaves me feeling there is hope for us. Now if the nay-sayers on our own side can just stop the non-sense. I can't say for sure, but I think Pres. Biden is going to hang in there. I also think the RNC is going to continue to fall apart. They did present a great unified look — fantastic but for a highly damaged candidate not only for Pres. but VP as well. May not matter so much at an RNC convention, but after that comes the real world.
I think we are going to be okay.
