Takes a focus group of Democrats that want Joe to stay 24-3 and turns it into, it'll be ok to replace Joe.

I mean, here's the gist of what Sarah has said:

-Swing voters overwhelmingly want a different candidate and have very serious concerns about Biden.

-Black voters, who are Joe Biden's most loyal supporters, prefer Joe Biden, but will vote for anyone against Trump

Given those two facts, why wouldn't you consider putting up someone who can actually win independents, who will determine this election, and make this race more competitive?

Yes, because it looks at their reasons for wanting Joe to stay and how they'd react if he left. That provides a more complex and well-rounded insight than just "yes or no / up or down." And it does in fact put some dents in the notion that replacing Joe would be an offense to all black people everywhere.

The fact that I'm a vegetarian doesn't change the fact that I'd vote for a ham sandwich before I'd vote for Trump, either.

Yeah, she confused me there, her analysis of what this meant wasn't at all what I heard?
