At least we can know that LT2012 isn't from an anime, because even anime fans would find his character too unbelievable.

now to be perfectly fair, her first response when asked will you run again was "no". however she then did go on to explain that america faces many foreign political problems post-trump and wouldn't you know it she's the perfect one to address those problems. and then she ends by saying she'll make a decision after the midterms

I won't be worried unless suddenly other more mainsteam/center-left competitors (like Harris, Booker, Biden, etc) suddenly start dropping out. Gillibrand dropping out is slightly concerning, but it doesn't concern me too much unless it becomes part of a trend. I don't think Hillary has the influence anymore to make someone like Biden (or probably even Booker) drop out anymore. vvv Yeah, this is another reason it doesn't really concern me.

I don't think Hillary has the influence any more to make someone like Biden (or probably even Booker) drop out anymore. For the record the bit about Gillibrand is fairly common for people with intentions to run but no desire to telegraph it until after midterm elections, so you're not going to know until it's too late anyway.

mandatory lesbian posted:Did Biden stop being anti-drug or something, why do people suddenly like him again Nothing's changed, he's just strong in polling because he's got name recognition, Obama nostalgia, and because he hasn't actually run for anything for six years (and even further back on his own). I am hopeful that once he's officially running that all his skeletons come tumbling out of the closet before any votes are cast, given what a creep he is in public. If all that stuff comes out during the general election, welp we're hosed.

His announcement that he was not running in 2016 got as much or more coverage than people announcing that they were running, so he's got the media by the balls. Rumors that Biden could get swept up in #metoo and was right in the trenches for the Democrats' 90's shift into Contemptible Centrist Death Spiral politics are mere hearsay, friend.

I listened to the rest of the interview and Clinton talking up the possible Democratic candidates and she pretty clearly didn't include herself among them. So I feel confident enough to  that she won't run. I am wrong about poo poo all the time so that shouldn't reassure you, but at this point really almost all the noise about another possible Clinton run is coming from Republicans trying to scare their base or from lazy media and clickbait rags like The Hill.

Biden? He might be the worst candidate from a policy standpoint but he's got as good a chance of beating Trump as most of the other candidates do. He's no Bernie but, then again, who is?

Hieronymous Alloy posted:Biden? I think Biden would easily lose to Trump because the way to beat Trump isn’t to out yell him. The media will still circle like vultures around Biden’s own lies and issues with touching women without consent (all while continuing to ignore Trump’s more egregious lies and assaults). Meanwhile Biden would at every chance do anything he can to suppress Democratic base support. Will Biden apologize for his role in mass incarceration or the war on drugs? Will he apologize and seek contrition for his support of murders by drone strike of American citizens and random people exercising? Or will he double down and try to be more tough on drugs and terrorism than Trump? It is clear he’ll pick something closer to the latter rather than the former. Biden will run on a fundamentally conservative message of “lets return to 2008” when that’s far from sufficient for our times. A lesser conservative won’t win the general in 2020.

There's a decent chance you're right and Biden certainly could lose, but I still think virtually anyone who wasn't Hillary Clinton could have beaten Trump in 2016 and could beat Trump in 2020. Trump is hideously awful and even a marginally charismatic candidate willing to make any kind of promises at all to working people would have a chance. Biden's got working-class appeal and the right-wing attack machine has never really stuck to him in the same way (probably because he's a white male). He's definitely not the candidate I support but I don't think he'd be an absolute lost cause in the general. I mean, poo poo, I'd pick him over Eric Holder, or Bloomberg, or Tim Kaine, or a lot of other potential nominees. He'd just do poo poo-all to excite the base or push progressive legislation so in 2024 we'd probably get another, more competent Trump because the same un-addressed social ills would still be in place. Until we get actual progressive policy enacted things are going to get worse. But I think Biden could win in 2020, it would just be only a short-term victory.

I don't think Biden will win the primary, or even come that close. He may lead in the polls, but his numbers are by far the worst of any former vice president running for a nomination. Getting mid 30s as the former vice president of a pretty popular president, without having ever faced a tough election at the top of the ticket is pretty bad. He hasn't faced any substantial attack ads or scrutiny. People like to compare his numbers to Bernie's, but Bernie has been involved in a pretty bloody primary and re-litigation of said primary for the better part of 3 years. And everyone else doesn't have the same name recognition.
