Is a Brokered Convention for Democrats coming?

This makes it look like a brokered conventions may be more likely..........

" Could a ‘Draft Cuomo’ Movement Be in the Democrats’ Future?
It’s not out of the question if Biden keeps looking out of touch and irrelevant.
Democrats are publicly talking about “contingency options” for their July convention in Milwaukee in case the coronavirus persists in being a public-health threat. But privately, some are also talking about needing a Plan B if Joe Biden, their nominee apparent, continues to flounder.

Some Democrats are openly talking up New York governor Andrew Cuomo, whose profile has soared during the crisis, as a Biden stand-in. Yesterday, a Draft Cuomo 2020 account on Twitter announced that “Times have changed & we need Gov. Cuomo to be the nominee. Our next POTUS must be one w/an ability to lead thru this crisis.”....https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/03/could-a-draft-cuomo-movement-be-in-the-democrats-future/

It's very possible, Cuomo (as well as the CA governor) are all over the news but then their states are getting hammered with Corona -19. The DNC convention is still a few months out and Biden is getting no better:

No Biden supporter, not then, not now, but I hope he gets tested for the virus with that cough.

Every four years: Someone talks about a brokered convention, but no one does anything about it. Short of a stroke or death, there will be no brokered convention. It's something pundits love to write about but has little to do with reality.

I've been saying for months that the Dems will have a brokered Convention. Killary will likely head the ticket along with Big Mike.

Face it. Biden is not going to make it.

Really? Hillary on the ticket is just another GOP pipe dream. Not going to happen. And Mike is done. He showed how many votes he can get, even with limitless funding.

So who should they pick, Biden seems kind of lost, and Bernie was the real deal even if he was a 'socialist'. I think they bite the bullet and bring in a 'dark horse'.
