    I'll keep saying it. If you want to beat Trump, Harris is the one. Take it for what it's worth from me because I'm not voting for her but a younger me would.

    Didn't the younger you vote for McGovern?
    Yes. I voted for the loser quite often so again, take it with a grain of salt.

    Anyone else think Mayor Pete's moralizing has a short shelf life?

    I listened to his 45 seconds and was annoyed
    Haha, not having read this yet I just drew that comparison Harris-McGovern. People here just don't know enough about her yet. Easy to seem like a good alternative when you haven't been put under the microscope yet.

    At first glance she passes the eye test for people like APAG but also for moderate conservatives who believe in Law and Order god damn it.

    The reality is that most progressives in CA I know hate her guts for the latter and most moderates can't deal with her far Left tendencies.

    She's going to pick up steam simply for not being one of the known commodities as people ask themselves, "Isn't there anyone else we can vote for?" Call it the Romney effect. As people get to know her though they will realize there's a reason she's topped out at representing California.

    She's not for law and order. LE in Cali was not happy with her.

    Like I said, it's a first glance impression. As soon as you dig any further than that it all falls apart.

    You get some deference for your Trump call in 2016 but no way Harris wins after her positions on giving illegals healthcare. Her fucking Willie Brown while humorous is a nothing burger politically but illegals and healthcare and her flip flopping on getting rid of private health insurance is all Trump needs to beat her ass soundly.
    They need someone like Hickenlooper to wake up. Smart, normal and non-threatening in his appearance. Has the governorship experience, etc. But nobody knows who the fuck he is. Midwestern centrists would vote for him. And liberals are going to vote for any democrat who gets the ticket.

    I liked him because he had the balls to say the one fucking thing his party has to say - out loud - and he said it twice - "the answer is not a government jerb for everybody ... the answer is not to be found in socialism."

    I'm shocked this hasn't gotten more play in the Tug. He's the one motherfucker in the group who has the political acumen and the guts to basically say out loud that they're not going to win if they don't get off their soap box about fringe social issues and reject any notion of AOC Socialism.

    If I were committed to voting Democrat, and I'm not, but if I were, that's the guy I'd pick. Harris is a lightweight, and Booker is a moron, Pete is ... I don't know, fuck off South Bend. Biden is too old and still in love with his Vice Presidency and doesn't have enough gas in the tank to beat Trump. Bennett's retardation is exceeded only by Inslee's. The rest can go DIAFF.
    Pete fucked up by skipping running for a Senator or Governor spot first. Mayor of South Bend (population:101,168) ain't shit. He could have Obama'd his way into a run in 2024 quite easily.
