2024 ELECTION THREAD
The next presidential race will be here soon! Please see current Bovada odds. Thoughts?
I don't know how many people I've had to tell we don't give two squirts about Joe Biden.
Newson endorses. The senator list is long now. It’s all over, Harris is the democratic nominee.

yeah.. you are getting states that are pledging their delegates now too.. Tennessee already pledged.. this is a coronation.
i'm sure you'll still have some aholes like Manchin that will try and spoil the party but looks like everyone normal is falling in line.
it's good because it answers any of the dumb republican talking points about taking it away from voters, since 14 million people or whatever number they cite voted for Harris.
lol no
all Dem slappies knew he wasn't up for the job. it was the head Dem slappie that couldn't get it through his thick noggin
some Dem slappies in gov't had to act otherwise bc that's the way the game is played (you know this)
Dem congressional slappies' offices have been flooded w calls over the last few weeks demanding the head Dem slappie *pass the torch*
now the old senile dude w cognitive disability is the MAGA problem
funny how that works, innit
you can tell it was the good move for him to step down, because all the right wing influencers are suddenly very concerned about "norms". and trump is already cowardly running away from a potential debate..
who are all of the right wing influencers and how is it possible you've already heard their opinion? honest question.
This really speaks to what an undisciplined piece of **** trump is. RNC was so ready for this to be possible that trump’s keynote speech was revised to remove any mention of Biden’s name and trump couldn’t even help himself and said ‘I’m not supposed to bring up his name’ before he mentioned biden

qft
he's going to say so many shocking sexist/patriarchal things about Kamala over the next 107 days. suburban women are going to bury Trump again
women in focus groups always comment on how they don't like how mean and nasty he is
The above Electoral College projected map has remained consistent for many many months. My two immediate tweaks would be to move Georgia from light GOP pink to damn near neutral. That GA 16 point shift is important, especially if we give it to the Dems. That one move shifts things from 216 Dem - 251 GOP to a literal toss up of 232 Dem - 235 GOP. And I've said that I would not be surprised if the powers that be decide the best VP for Harris would be to trying to keep medium pink GOP Ohio in play and pick Sherrod Brown as her VP. So Trump's VP would be Ohio's Vance and Harris' VP would be Ohio's Brown. And those Ohio favorite son's are are close enough to keep MN, WI, MI and PA in play.
It is completely consistent to think that Trump is too old to run while Biden is not. Biden has a history of consulting his advisors and doing what he is advised, Trump is likely to do whatever he wants.
Trump is unfit regardless of his age, it's just an extra factor.
I really think the VP list has to start and end with Shapiro
brown is far too progressive for the ticket. they would never.
i predict mark kelly or beshear.
Imagine backing this joke of a man
How come? I know nothing about this but feel like putting some action down. Convince me why I should put on Shapiro.
The must win states are Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, Shapiro in theory delivers Pennsylvania. I like Whitmer but a woman/woman ticket isn’t winning
Kelly and Bashear make little strategic sense and the Dems finally seem to be realizing it’s no time to **** around anymore. Kelly is the only other option I think may happen but man that just leaves you too vulnerable

Thanks
Considering how thin a majority the Dems have in the Senate, picking a Dem senator from a battleground or GOP state seems like an excellent way to punt a shot at replacing Alito/Thomas on the SC next term

AZ's Kelly is the only Dem senator seriously being talked about
he was reelected in 2022
the AZ governor is a Dem
no issue here
the argument for kelly is that he's everything the republicans try to attack the dems for not being.. he's former military, he was an astronaut, AZ is a swing state, he's a "moderate", he's white, straight and christian.
he's basically the perfect compliment to Harris.
It would make the dems defend the seat in 26 instead of 28 which isn't nothing.
Dems need a clean sweep to really do anything important, and we know America is dumb enough to push backwards in 26 even if they do get the sweep, and that would be an easy one to lose.

Ya the more I think about it it’s either Shapiro or Kelly
And ya, I think Kelly compliments Harris’s blind spots more.
Man wild times
