Can you at least give me an idea of who you want in the top position? No. Because you know that risks tipping your hand. You’ve spent this entire discussion avoiding the subject.
A candidate who can win this without any effort is a 45-year-old combat veteran living and working in a blue, industrial state. They were born and raised in a red state, on a farm with large scale commercial solar panels and wind turbines.
That candidate may or may not exist. I don’t know, you don’t know. They may or may not make themselves known at the convention. But that candidate would peel off farm and military supporters from Trump’s camp, without offending the Democratic base. Putting all our support behind someone else right now prevents us from getting that better candidate in 3 weeks.
We can pick one of the same, boring names just as easily during the convention as we can now, but if we pick them now, we don’t hear about the great candidates waiting in the wings.
I’m not even a Democrat. If you throw this to chaos and try to get someone on the far left in I might vote for Trump.
No, you won’t. Worst you’ll do is stay home on election day.

There’s some leftist picks that will make me pick Trump.
It sounds like you got a good head on your shoulders at least. I’m not sure if I’m convinced yet but I can appreciate your point of view now.
EDIT: I should note that I’m worried about the money because its $240 Million. That’s a lot for this portion of the race, and a lot of money to risk in this time where inflation has eaten away at most small people’s savings. I’m really not sure if Democrats will raise similar amounts if Biden drops out now.
Not even remotely comparable.
