The problem is not any blue will do. I can see them ignorantly pushing Harris. Hell, I can see their out of touch asses trying to push H. Clinton again. Democrats are pros at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
People have been talking about Newsom, or Booker, or even Warren. And… Well maybe, but even they don’t seem popular enough to take on Trump.
I can think of like one person in the whole country that could unite the base, Michelle Obama. Unfortunately, she appears to have zero interest in running, and who can blame her?
Polling right now puts “Generic Democrat” at +10 to Trump, which is just about the range we need to be in to win.
Literally every Democrat polls better than Biden. All of those names you put out are fine, plus a few more like Inslee, Witmer, plus who I think the sweet spot candidate is:
Andy Beshear
Popular two time Democratic governor of a southern state? That sure rhymes with Bill Clinton…
The DNC gets to pick any replacement. To them, that’s far better than rolling the dice on a progressive winning a primary.
Exactly. And that’s fine. If any blue will do, lets do any (other) blue other than the one that CLEARLY can’t win.
Smart voters, strategic voters right now understand the importance of “Literally any generic Democrat other than Biden” being the nominee right now.
Biden has been drowning in the polls for 450 days. He __ dunzo __ after this.
