That being said, I'm still trying to find someone who will let me take whatever Democrat is nominated over Trump in a bet for 2020. The more I think about it, I think Beto gives the Dems Texas, and that would be game over this cycle....


I like Beto. But he lost Texas to Ted Cruz. I don't think he'd win it in 2020. But I do think he'd be very popular in the rust belt states like MI, OH, PA.

Are you will lay to odds, roughly 2 to 1?

morons..


Kamala Harris is going to be a serious contender. I don't know if people can get past her being a woman of color, which is on them, not her. But she's everything a person could ask for in a President, so far, and professionally speaking. Personality-wise, she's stern, abrasive, and comes off as extremely skeptical. Not sure if thosee things will help or hurt her.

If I'm given a choice between her and Joe Biden, I would take Joe, with her a great VP ticket.

If between her and Amy Klobuchar, I'll take Amy.

If between Kamala and any others I'm aware of, I'll take Kamala.

BTW, Tom Steyer (the billionaire spending 10s of millions on impeachment ) has withdrawn his name after saying he was running a few months ago.

Beto could round out a ticket as VP with a more moderate candidate very well. I don't think he has the experience to be President.

Ah, I don’t know.... .


You are correct, you don't know. But
you knew I said Trump was going to
win, or it never would have occurred
to you to say I was melting down the
day after the election.

Noooo, you're the one making
the claim, YOU find them. I know
what I said, I don't have to prove
anything to you. To me you barely
exist..

Why would I look for posts I know aren't out there?

Maybe your buddy YeahBaby can help you find them,... since he apparently has all my posts from 2016 archived, maybe he knows where your (nonexistent) posts are.

That may be important to you, but it clearly is not to the American public. Obama and Trump had close to zero of what used to be called 'experience needed to be President'.

I just cannot believe the Democrats would be stupid enough to nominate a man who would be 78 on inauguration day... (Biden) I can't believe he is actually listed as a potential serious candidate.
