You and I agree on most things but for the 347,000th time this is about turnout. Dems turn out, they win — they don’t, they lose. This is about the base, not getting anyone in the base to switch sides.
I agree it is primarily about the base, and my statement you are taking issue with is independent of that.

That is, I believe you and others are underestimating the potential impact on voter sentiment across the spectrum of the reaction of the Trump campaign and MAGA movement to a non-white woman presidential candidate running against him.

It we won’t know who is more right in that regard until November.
 
It is a sad way for Biden’s career to end, but it was necessary. Keeping Trump out of the White House is all that matters. I’m not impressed by Harris, but the funding thing may force them to pick her. Just beat the narcissist, that’s all we ask.

I haven’t ever underrated it really — I agree there’s a deep undercurrent. But she brings a host of questions different than those Biden answered so I think it’s really a wash, for now. BUT — if the young start caring and see a new option . . . . !

That much we have always agreed on. ;-)
 
If she's the nominee, who's her running mate?
She won't pick another woman (e.g. Whitmer)
She won't pick another Californian (Newsome), never have both from the same state.
Pete Buttigieg? (smart but unlikely.)

Can you imagine the MAGA reaction to a Democratic ticket of a non-white woman and a gay man?

Maybe he’ll have a pop at Indian women, I’m sure his running mate will say nowt.
Vance staying nice and quiet as a large contingent of Trump supporters attack his wife has to be the most disqualifying aspect of Vance’s VP candidacy… and we’re talking about a Christian white nationalist VC!
