I've seen this guy be underestimated so many times by so so many people it's not funny.

I saw him be overestimated in the polls too many times to know he has losing numbers

This is the best summary I could come up with:


While he’s certainly not in the clear and many Democrats are privately and publicly grumbling that he can’t beat Donald Trump this fall, Biden seems to have staunched the bleeding as he and his allies work to shore up support for his beleaguered presidential campaign.

That small gang of defectors included Reps. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., Mike Quigley, D-Ill., and Mark Takano, D-Calif., sources said, who had already either publicly or privately called for Biden to step aside.

A day earlier, Biden told lawmakers in a public letter and private phone calls that he’s not quitting the race following his disastrous debate performance late last month.

As he opened the meeting, however, Jeffries scolded members for leaking the details of Sunday’s private Zoom between Democratic committee leaders, two sources confirmed.

After Tuesday’s meeting, Rep. Lori Trahan, D-Mass., a past Biden supporter, issued a tough statement saying the president needs to do a lot more to show her and voters that he's still up for the job.

“While President Biden has made clear he feels he is the best candidate to win this election, nothing that has happened over the past twelve days suggests that voters see things the same way.”
