the npr poll that we are talking about, biden is up 50%-40%. -- 50%-48%.astrous debate performance, this poll was conducted after that. despite that, they are tied. if this race is lost, if it is so disastrous, why don't these two polls that i just talked about -- why haven't they cratered? that is the thing driving me absolutely crazy. these scaredycrats out there screaming the houses on fire, and yet we now have two national polls that don't reflect that reality -- i want those people who are saying that he should get out of the race, please tell me, what are the numbers you are using? what do you see that the rest of us don't see? tell us. if you can show me -- if you can backup your conjecture that we are going to lose the senate and the house, show me the numbers and maybe i will set my hair on fire, too. geoff: i to get your take on this, the national conversation and our coverage of it. i was talking to a top democrat this morning who said that there is too much focus on performance and not enough focus on substance. and that we in the media have ba

our latest npr, pbs marist poll says that. which is what leads to this question of who would be the most exciting and the most appropriate running mate for her? yeah and the question is the polling so far shows that any of them any of those people, any of the people who are being the greatly mentioned would be equally viable. >> yeah. so that's what sort of curious about the whole thing with all these sort of dramatic moves that we've all been talking about all week the race is essentially static. >> but, you know, biden looks at the polls and says, oh look, i'm just as close as trump is as commonly harris, but do the polls tell us a whole lot because she has not been tested at the top of the ticket. again, she's not the one the one necessarily being hit with all of the campaign ads have been campaigning and talking about what you would do for the country and you know the interesting thing is, even if there are some polling out there showing that she would do a little bit better. joe biden doesn't believe that she would do bet

there's a new one out this morning from npr, marist shows the president ahead i mean, i have to i have to think people are wondering what the heck is going on here this will be the longest general election campaign in history. if we pick out each individual poll and make it out to be something that was sent down from the high mountain top. that's why it's important to look at the average of polling, look this is a close race but yeah, you point out that marist college poll that had biden up by two, although no clear leader on that, but the average of national polls since the debate do have donald trump ahead by three points. that's not ten points. it's not 20 points, it's three points, but it's still something to be noted, right? he's still up by three percentage points at this particular the color time. and i think there are a lot of democrats, jim, a lot of democrats are saying, can we do something better if we pick kamala harris, right? can we do something better? and you saw that graphic on the screen if we can put it back out there for a second and you what you see here is essenti

. >> yeah, he's up in the latest npr poll. but, you know, the math is such that the democratic candidate probably needs more than a few percentage points to lock in the electoral win, but we're out of time. but congressman mendy, what i want to ask you is sorry. please. >> that really depends upon where you are polling. there are the battleground states. there is no doubt that biden will win the majority of the popular vote, and he is in a position in the battleground states to win those battleground states. and you must be very, very clear that we are clearly focusing on those battleground states. that's why he's in michigan today. that's why he's going to be in pennsylvania over the weekend. and the campaign is going to be really underway following the conventions. right now, everybody's in this feeding frenzy about the, performance at the debate. the fact of the matter is, since that debate, biden has performed very well. >> congressman garamendi, thank you so much. i'm so sorry we're out of time, but we all certainly wish

congress and the trump campaign, and domenico montanaro is senior political editor and correspondent for nprlisa -- laura, rather, i want to begin with you. how did we get from defiance to standing down? laura: ultimately as the weeks had gone on since the june 20 seven debate, president biden was losing support every single day. he was losing support from leaders in congress, from democrats in congress, losing donors. all of that combined ultimately made it untenable for the president to hold his position, even though his campaign aides, his campaign cochair, as well as president biden and those around him continued to say he was in it, he was not going to back down from this race. but lawmakers and democrats across the board said they wanted a decision from him by this coming monday. sunday evening, today, he says that he is not going to run for reelection, endorses harris, and already i am told vice president kamala harris is making calls to governors, to other people across the party apparatus to make it clear she is trying to earn this. we also saw both bill and hillary clinton endorsed

for instance, the npr poll that we are talking about, biden is up 50-48. in the washington post poll that was released yesterday, this poll was conducted after that. despite that, donald trump and president biden are tied. if this race is lost, if it is so disastrous, why don't these polls that i just talked about, why haven't they cratered? that's the thing that's driving me absolutely crazy. these scaredy-cat's out there screaming that the house is on fire and we are going to lose everything, we have two national polls who don't reflect that reality. i want the people saying he should get out of the race, please tell me what are the numbers you are using? what do you see that the rest of us don't see? because if you can backup your conjecture that we are going to lose the white house, the senate and the house, show me the numbers and then maybe i will set my hair on fire, too. geoff: i want to get your take on the national conversation and our coverage of it. i was talking to a top democrat this morning who said there is too much focus on performance and

take president trump off the ticket and it's not gonna go down easily and more importantly politically npre it's not a good look to mow over a black female to ignore a position and try and usurp it because there candidate frankly can't walk or speak properly and i'm sure greg can speak more to it but it would be incredibly damaging. >> kelly-ann: it is true greg at that harrises job protection and joe biden as he chose one of three people who cannot upstage him but how do you see all of this? >> as the wall street journal said imagine if biden had actually picked a competent vice president instead of checking a political identity boxes and that would've changed the equation dramatically into your question there are two major problems with the replacement candidate in early voting states, early ballot dead liners replaced that would miss and that's a huge problem and they have to go to court to get that changed but the other problem is a monetary one is joe biden sitting on a 200 million-dollar warchest of donations but under federal campaign finance laws, he is not allowed to transfer that
