People disagree vehemently about who is most likely to win. That sucks, because we can't test it—we only get to run one candidate, in one election. So we'll be arguing about it forever. But let's not pretend we're arguing about grand ideological currents. It's about who can win!

Right but when you say "Democratic primary voters were persuaded" how do you think that happened? Considering Biden got a 30 point shift in only 3 days I'd say wall to wall coverage in the media had something to do with it. I'm personally not comfortable with CNN deciding this

There's a widow where you actually have to decide and that's what happened. Media attention can steer is a bit but this isn't a conspiracy, it's what herding half a million cats looks like.
