Smerconish: Biden in political purgatory
Briefly

Biden, despite his insistence that he's staying in the race, is confronting a demoralizing set of statistics. In all six swing states, he's trailing Trump. Plus, he's slipping in states that should be safely blue.
Donors to the campaign have frozen $90 million in pledged donations. If he remains the Democratic nominee, much of that funding could very well dry up.
House members are discreetly encouraging him to withdraw from the race. There's a growing sense that the only way to replace Trump is with someone else.
A whopping 56% of Democrats want the former vice president to step down. This significant figure indicates serious doubts within Biden's own party about his ability to win the election.
