Strategists debate whether Biden should’ve stepped aside earlier, letting a primary unfold instead of rallying behind Kamala Harris. While Haaland passionately defends Biden as a historic president, Becerra focuses on policy wins, arguing voters care more about the candidate than their ties to Biden. Ultimately, Democrats are prioritizing electability over nostalgia—voters want someone who can actually beat Trump, not just relive the Biden era.
