2020 Democratic Presidential Nominees

like I said before the election, I will not vote for him because of his central role in the decline of public discourse and his unpredictability; and I didn't; that of course has not stopped the TDS inflamed lubes around here from claiming otherwise; being a lube these days necessitates a lot of mistaken and often malicious fantasizing, I guess;

the first issue still stands, on the other hand, he is a little more predictable now than before; I think he spends too much and seems insufficiently concerned with the deficit; the tweets are too hit and miss; don't agree with large increases in military spending; his affability is pretty low; other than a few zingers his rhetoric is often poor

Will you vote for him in 2020? Because you won’t vote for a Dem right?
 
I did. If it is trump vs a Dem (any in the field), who will you vote for?

That's weird I think he is a pretty good looking dude, is that not the general opinion?

I think their point was that he looks so young and boyish that it will be hard to take him seriously on TV, even when he is making well thought out arguments.

He addressed that on Morning Joe.

The TV thing is a weird point given that he is gaining momentum from his TV appearances.

The rube response to a gay president would be similar to their response to a black president.

Worse, I think.

There was an interesting Emerson Dem poll I saw on RCP yesterday. Only 4 candidates in double digits were Biden, Sanders, Harris and Beto with Biden and Sanders tied at the top. Gillibrand was dead last at a Blutarsky GPA of 0.0% - she needs to drop out. What is more interesting is how each fared v. Trump. Biden was +10, Harris +4, Sanders and Warren +2 and Beto -2. Beto is the interesting number because it's currently a deficit. And I know, I know, polls are meaningless this early. But you gotta figure a Dem must beat Trump by > 3% in the popular vote to secure an EV victory. As unpopular as Trump is, this is still eminently loseable.

I think across the board (except Beto because Bernie Bros), all of the legitimate Dem candidates would get a +3-4 bump if they end up being the general candidate due to non-winner Dem voters backing the primary winner. The election is always going to be potentially loseable just by nature of how American Presidential elections work. But I wouldn't be too concerned about any of the polling numbers vs. Trump yet.
