We'll just have to see. I see absolutely no profit in saying we've already lost the race, and everything from now on is just going through the motions.

But there can be profit in that.

If Biden has now already lost the race, then there's potential benefits in trying to get him to step aside. If he doesn't, there's benefits to reallocating resources and reorienting campaign strategy to try to get down-ballot wins. Or in letting downballot candidates be seen trying to get Biden to move aside, so they can separate from him. Or even letting a potential 2028 candidate start building up national recognition, even in a failing effort. Or insulating the Democratic party as a whole from criticism of possibly being complicit in pushing forward an impaired candidate.
