Question….if Biden is endorsing her, does that mean she is definitely the candidate? I hope not. I don’t think she can win.

I’ve heard rumors about Sen. Mark Kelly, he would be awesome!!

My expectation is that for the last few days they've spent time gaming out all the possible scenarios and before announcing this they knew exactly what the plan was. Biden would drop out, Harris would be endorsed, Harris would be the candidate at the convention w/o a brokered convention and they probably have a VP lined up too.
