There really isn’t time. Nobody, not Harris, not anyone will be able to raise the money and coordinate a national campaign between now and the election. The time for him to step aside was like two years ago. Harris needed time to establish her own identity as president to take on Trump. If he withrew from the race, he would have to step down as President because he’d be basically admitting he’s too feeble. Harris trying to run as VP would have all the negatives of Biden and none of his strengths. And that’s assuming ten more candidates don’t step up to try to take the nomination from her.
I agree with you that I wish we had a better Democrat because we really cannot afford another Trump term, but Biden is it. Unless he dies, he’s the nominee. I hope he finds the strength to win it.
It’s not just money. It’s getting the name recognition out there, and most people simply don’t pay any attention to the VP. Biden might as well pick a total stranger.
Plus, it’s about charisma. In general, people have to like the candidate before they’ll vote for them, and Kamala is less charismatic than Biden.

His money is Harris’ money, they’re on the same ticket.
