On Friday, leftwing professor Allan Lichtman, who frequently appears as a guest on CNN and MSNBC to hype his "13 Keys" to the presidency shtick was in an excited joyous mood. He had just heard from from former White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain that Joe Biden would remain in the presidential race thus preserving Lichtman's all important "incumbency key."

Here is the jubilant Lichtman in an upbeat mood due to the preservation of his sacred incumbency key which he believed helped ensure Biden's victory in November.

Well, that was then because just two days later, oopsie, Biden dropped out. However, without missing a beat, Lichtman was back to hyping a Democrat's chances, Kamala Harris, due to his "contest" key. Got that? Out with the incumbency key and in with the newly all-important contest key.

And what happens to Lichtman's now super critical contest key if, say, Hillary Clinton challenges Harris at the convention via her superdelegates? Will Lichtman pull another key out of his hat?

Here is an explanation of Lichtman's 13 keys to presidential race success. As you can see if the incumbent White House party, meaning the Democrats, lose six or more of the sacred keys it means they will lose the presidential race according to Lichtman. Since they have already lost the incumbency key Lichtman is now desperately hyping the "contest" key. And if Hillary Clinton suddenly decided to contest the nomination, be prepared for Lichtman to hype a new key if his past is prologue.
