Smashian Kassian Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 With the rumours of Hillary replacing Biden, this came across my timeline. I have to say its fascinating & striking to see the hosts of a 'democratic' debate jumping in so quickly to try shutting down the live voting populace from expressing a visceral opinion/reaction. Very anti-democracy from the corporate press then, just they continue to be now. The other interesting thing is Trump was far sharper then than he is now. And I don't think anyone really knows how sharp Hillary is today, but I imagine like Trump it hasn't increased with age. Shes been mostly in the shadows for 6-8 years, now remarkably she could be reappearing & cutting the line ahead of a person of colour in Officer Harris. Im fascinated to see how the Democrats play this out ahead of their convention. Seems like no good options. (If I was Newsome or Buttigeg, I'd wait till '28 or '32 when the prospects don't look so bad) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Long Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 (edited) Hilarious opinion piece in the NYT about how "hillbilly" should be considered a DEI choice It's behind a paywall but I'll try to post some of it if I can figure out how.

Sound strategy /s To be fair, she beat him pretty soundly in the popular vote, and likely would again........I just don't think she plays well in the swing states. That said, she was polling very well until all the email bs dropped right before the election and I don't see people falling for the Cons disinformation again 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(If I was Newsome or Buttigeg, I'd wait till '28 or '32 when the prospects don't look so bad) I wonder if the time is perfect for 2 like Newsome and Buttigeg .. The topic / issue is age and decline of politicians .. Going with younger , experienced, intelligent democrats would be a rally call for many on both sides to support. …. besides I’d love to see either one of those 2 fore mentioned rip Trump apart and bag him ..

I don't see anyway, where women's rights are the biggest issue by far, that the Dems go with two men. I don't think that man is the POTUS candidate........in fact, I think it's possible they run two women on the ticket 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abortion access keeps winning in each state it's voted on so there's less urgency. That was the whole point of SCOTUS sending it to the states.

It's not just about abortion......it's about contraception, it's about no fault marriage, it's about a 4 year assault on women's rights.

Right now, it doesn't crack the Top 3. People are way more concerned with the economy, especially inflation. It's cyclical. Maybe by the mid-terms in 2 years that will be the #1 issue.

Guess it's a good thing that inflation is dropping, fuel prices are dropping, prices are coming down and the economy is dong well in the US.
