What I don't understand about Feinstein is how her political career lasted longer than like, 1985. I mean how did the confederate flag thing not sink her immediately? In California? In San Francisco? A rebel flag is taboo even among the succiest of poo poo dems. The campaign ads write themselves.

The Muppets On PCP posted:giilibrand suffers from the same problem harris and every other non-biden democrat faces- they're completely unknown to 95% of the general public. and i'd even put biden on that list because nobody gives two shits about the vice president Pretty much. Media attention in recent presidential re-election campaigns is already massively weighted towards the incumbents, though I guess it doesn't help that most of the challengers have been insufferable dullards. This is going to be far worse with Trump as president, and he knows it, and will take full advantage. He must secretly love CNN, since they got him elected the first time and will do so again

EugeneJ posted:I said a few months ago that Trump's going to break into national news coverage of the Dem primaries with presidential addresses to gently caress them over, and I still believe that will happen Yeah, he will absolutely be the shadow candidate of the primaries. Except he won't be talking about infrastructure, but will drop their nicknames at every available chance - "Crazy Bernie", "Pocahontas", probably "Old Joe" and "Kneelin' Kirsten" too

Main Paineframe posted:are the Dem primaries going to reach a decision point significantly before the GOP primaries will? it things happen to reach a point where Bernie is the clear Dem winner but GOP competition to Trump still exists, the lanyards are all gonna jump ship to support the "reasonable Republican" There won't be GOP primaries. No major candidate will primary Trump. The Dem primaries, however, have a non-zero chance of going to the convention floor.

navyjack posted:McCain famously said she was ugly cause her real dad was Janet Reno, so she has an excuse note not to say anything at all. holy poo poo, was that him? lmao This whole wreath-laying exercise by Democrats is unreal. I read this thread, listen to Chapo, and all the other cynical poo poo we do, but somehow I'm still surprised the Democrats are debasing themselves this much at the grave of a diehard conservative senator and a total shithead rear end in a top hat. Like, I thought the curtain was lifted back in 2006 when McCain started talking at focus on the family type poo poo and he went on TDS and Stewart called him on it. And then he ran against Obama in a boilerplate GOP campaign. But I guess anyone who #resists is a Maverick...
