I’d put more credence in the story if Slow Joe had not shot his mouth off about Hillary being a better choice. It may be that a switcheroo was in the works, but now that Biden has made the gaffe, it takes aways the “Biden withdraws for health reasons” option. It would now look like they simply dumped Biden.
The Biden Withdrawal contract on Intrade has been going up steadily for 2 days, gaining in volume. If someone is certain about Biden withdrawing, they can make money from that assertion.
