I mean... the strategists at the DNC surely knew that Biden's age was a risk and had the scenario where he steps down in favor of his VP after a midterm shellacking in the back of their minds. What they imho didn't anticipate is that Kamala would be so unpopular and inept, going into the 2024 cycle with her as the Democratic standard bearer would be a gigantic liability and political risk. Essentially, they have no other choice than hoping that Biden can keep it together long enough.
I think whatever would have be the VP, the republicans would have done everything to block the processes to maintain chaos, by letting 1 or 2 of them to keep voting "no", without sanctions from the party.
