If he were replaced, then Obama & Co would own the responsibility for replacing him. Then, when the replacement failed, they would be on the hook too.

With Bernie reconfirmed, they can conveniently place the blame on him for any future economic fizzle-out.

On the other hand, if the economy does really well, expect Obama & Co to claim all the glory for sticking with a plan that they all knew from the very beginning was going to work just fine.
