Thank fuck. This man can go down in history as the savior of the Republic if he fucks off and endorses someone else.

    All we need is a charismatic person and the country will vote for them. The American people can not stand uncharismatic blowhards and yet Dems keep trying to shove them in our faces. They are obsessed with tradition and this “my turn” bullshit. Enough is enough already.

      Newsome is charismatic but would be a hard sell to Georgia and the Midwest.

      Whitmer would be good since she’d motivate more women to vote and would do will in the Midwest.

      Harris is right out. She has negative charisma.

      Raskin has charisma but he’s an old ugly white guy. Wouldn’t turn out the youth vote.

      Jeffries would be a good pick if he had started campaigning a year ago.

      Stacy Abrams is in the same boat. If she had a year to get more name recognition she’d have a chance.

      Aoc, Crockett, and moskowitz are good back benchers but won’t be ready for a few more years yet, if ever.

      If I had to choose it’d be Whitmer. She has the fewest negatives, as long as there are no skeletons in the closet waiting to come out.

          Yeah and give it two weeks and they’ll all poll worse because the spin machine aimed at them.

          People are deluded to think a fresh face is gonna be better than the incumbent.

            You are underestimating how stupid the average voter is. We couldn’t get the Midwest to vote for Hillary in 2016 and that was suppose to be her safe zone. The smallest advantage is still an advantage for trump. People have been saying they don’t want Biden since 2 years ago and this only makes it worse for him. Being incumbent president means nothing at this point.

              The stupid average voter is barely even aware of anything, let alone one bad debate. They haven’t had to think about Biden for four years. They won’t even remember that come November if they ever did hear of it.

              You’re trading complacency and incumbency for a complete unknown. That’s the dumbest fucking thing you can do, to put it lightly.
