No, because despite all of their years of campaigning to win over moderate Republicans, that number never increases. This is the point. It's a waste of time and effort that also has the blowback effect of reducing the enthusiasm levels from segments within their own party.

No, my contention is that those that "say" they will vote for Biden is lower than those that actually vote for Biden. I recall that polling in 2016 may not have been accurate, because people were unwilling to "say" they would vote for Trump, but in fact did vote for Trump in higher numbers. This is the same group of so called moderate Rebublicans.
I guess we will see if the number never increases. Don't know. I just don't think the blowback will be that great. This is not the election to stay on the sidelines, for obvious reasons. That, and I think you overestimate the progressive segment of the Dems and underestimate the more center leaning Dems.
