If theres still a primary then i dont really see why this is such a big deal, thats lots of time to get someone better to run. If no one better is available then that says more about systematic problems with the DNC then it does the ex mercenary.

At least hes on the record acknowledging the problems and isnt ancient. The dnc doesnt seem capable of running anyone worth voting for, they can only do “not trump” so we end up with problematic “lesser evils” constantly.
