A Biden win might boil down very simply to Democrat voters hating Biden less than than they hated Clinton. IOW, if they're not crazy about Biden, they'll find it easier to hold their noses for Biden than they did for Clinton.

Someone commented, "If that's what they're saying publicly, what do you think they're saying privately?"
That depends on their reason for saying it publicly. They could be trying to make sure that Biden voters don't stay home because they think he's got it in the bag. On the other hand, they could be panicking.

I think everyone is trying to get on the record thinking another 2016 surprise might happen. I’d be surprised if Trump even gets 200 electoral votes.

You're not just going to be surprised, you might actually piss yourself.

Biden's campaign message this week has been 'battle for the soul of the nation'. It's even on his podium. Politicians talking about souls smells like desparation to me.

I think we may need a to institute a Wishful Thinking Index (tm).
It's off the charts at the moment.

But Mik, all politicians do this. President Trump is talking about saving the suburban, he’s talking about protecting America from XYZ. America is under threat, etc.
He may not specifically say “soul” but it is the same thing.

RCP just dropped Biden down to +1.2 in PA.

I am not confident in the source... Are these numbers accurate?

FiveThirtyEight's model:

If Trump takes Georgia and Florida and loses Pennsylvania, he has a 6% chance of winning.
If he wins Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Florida , Silver gives him a 90% chance of winning.

Cool! For the record, I want a Trump win. Would be fun to see an upset. Would also be fun to see all the upset (see what i did there?) woke folks cry.

The chances of their disappointment being limited to crying at home is lower than a Trump win itself.

Good point. It also makes sense why they’re putting up hard to scale fences around the White House.

Why do you want to see your country go down the toilet?

No, it's not even close to the same thing.
