At this point - I don't know if they have a plan other than find a way to elect him.
He has the delegates, so they don't get past nominating someone else. He has the cash, so you don't get a chance to run a campaign for someone else.
Their prospects lie in convincing the American people that either Trump is someone you never want to get back in the White House - or convince you that you never had it so good, under Biden.
OR - a catastrophe for Biden - he has a stroke or a fall, and is removed from contention, and they put in someone ELSE.
This - has not worked in the past. When Johnson bowed out late - and RFK was assasinated - HHH got in there and lost.
When Muskie cried and the nomination got handed late in the game to McGovern - Nixon gave him the biggest shellacking in history.
No, their BEST chance is - find a way to get him to win. Their second best chance is, find someone the country already loves, and find an excuse to run that person, by someone making Biden too ill to continue.
I don't know of a current Democratic leader THAT popular.
