Manchin shows no interest. He may as well run as a repub as his party no longer exists.


Any moderate dem candidate will be a Trojan horse for the socialists. what do you think that person will accomplish with the democrat party hijacked by the socialist/fascists and supported by the media.


Pelosi said as much during the last campaign. Say what you need to say to get elected.


What impact did that moderate dem from PA have on the direction of the dem party...zero, zip, none!


Dems will run michelle Obama at the last minute.


Like iwo jima, the repubs will bomb the heck out of the dem clown car and when they used up a megaton of powder and feel none could survive that assault, the dems will reappear with MO, their last and final hope.


the dems are playing for keeps and will go to any length to save themselves from prison and protect Obama's false legacy, as promoted by the media propaganda machine.

Mrs. Obama is more intelligent, compassionate, politically savvy, and better looking than Trump
Would have no problem voting for her
But she is also smart enough not to want to run against Trump—not because she couldn’t beat him, but because she and her family suffered enough from the racist element of America when Obama was in the WH
Why go back to that type of abuse for you and your family
They are having a great life now and likely wouldn’t touch it with a 10 ft pole...

She has no charisma. I don’t see her winning. I could see Michael Bloomberg winning if he decided to throw his hat in the ring. Or someone who is waiting in the wings until they knock out some people that we haven’t even considered yet. Right now, I think the Dems running are too damaged with the exception of one candidate.

I would have never thought this a few months ago, but Elizabeth Warren might have a chance. She’s the only one talking policies, even if I don’t agree with some of them. She’s already taken the damage from her Native American claim and overcome it. But if someone like Bloomberg announced I think he would win. I don’t think he wants to though.

LOL Let's see... What's the Democrats' equivalent of RINO? That's right, they don't have one.

They vote as a monolith, so if the Dems get an opportunity to line up behind Manchin (which they'll do if he has that D before and after his name), that'd be fine by me--provided that he picks a like-minded Veep.

IOW, he'd keep the progressives out of the WH a little longer.

Progressives are 3-4 decades away from the White House.

That is not even a remote possibility. The Dems have moved soooooo far left they will not nominate an old white man!

Warren will be the nominee. She also has the best shot of defeating Trump, depending on how she handles herself going forward.

Overall, Trump has an 80% chance of winning reelection.

Harris it the only one I would be afraid of. She fits the perfect Democrat candidate. She's black, a woman and as you said very pro-illegal. She will appeal to blacks, women, Hispanics and many self-hating white liberals.

No democrat can now beat Trump, as AOC and Omar are the new face of the party and will highjack the dem platform. Don't you understand that?

As the dem party supported "The Squad", and cannot criticize any minority for fear of being called "racist", they have cooked their own goose.

Pelosi should have had the guts to call out "The Squad', but she didn't. Now the dem party OWNS their statements and every candidate (and platform) will have to pass the approval of "The Squad".

The House approval of "The Squad" was essentially a suicide note.
