| The Debate Debacle Changes Nothing |

| [Townhall - Kurt Schlichter] I had resolved not to watch last Thursday night’s debate because I didn’t think it would change anything, and I was right to the extent that it didn’t change anything for me. I already knew President Crusty was a sundowning desiccated old weirdo. But it changed things for people who were on the fence or not paying attention. That’s not going to matter, though. Joe Biden is not going anywhere. The fact is that Joe Biden is the nominee, and he will remain the nominee. By the next morning, the rallying and rationalization were in full effect. Obama tweeted about how it’s all going to be OK. So did many others after the deathwatch that was the immediate post-debate analysis on the communist channels. And they believe their revised spin. You have a narcissist’s wounded ego at play, and he will never back down. For years, Barack Obama has run down Joe Biden privately and humiliated him in public, including by guiding him off-stage at that Hollywood fundraiser like the President was a short bus-riding toddler. Joe Biden hates the idea that people think he is being controlled by Barack Obama from behind the curtain. It’s ego, combined with stupidity and senility, and that is quite a combination. Add to that the fact that Very Real Doctor Jill Biden and a whole bunch of straphangers depend on Joe Biden being President for their position, power, and prestige. They don’t want to go anywhere either. They have no choice but to play this out. It’s not like they can go get real jobs. They are telling themselves — and us — that it really wasn’t that bad. But it was that bad because this was the one time that normal people paid attention. CNN Trump-Biden Debate Brings in 51 Million TV Viewers Across Networks, 30 Million More Online The Democrats decided to democratize their primary nominating system and, well, it worked. They’re stuck with Dementia Boy. Heck, they must officially nominate him by August 7th or no Democrat gets on the Ohio ballot. It’s just too late to do anything else, even if Joe Biden was inclined to quit for the good of the party and the country. But he is not inclined as Joe Biden has never done anything for anyone who wasn’t named "Biden." He will never sacrifice his ego for an abstract notion of party loyalty or patriotism. Nope, the Democrats are stuck. And it is hilarious. |

| #4 From what I understand, if Biden doesn't step down they can't force him. So Obama will attempt to get the donors to cut him off to convince Biden. Realistically I don't think any of the Dems other options are any better. |

| #3 They can't change it. They've already made up the bogus ballots and everything. Paid for them. |
