I even saw someone mention Wes Moore and I was reminded that he's a pretty good moderate governor of Maryland now instead of "only" a West Point graduate and author.
No mention anywhere of Warren... Did she fail too hard in the primaries?
Gosh I'd love to see her debate Trump. He would never agree to it though, as she'd rip him to logical pieces.
No, in an election where age would be a larger issue than it already is I'm assuming anyone who would hit 80 in office is a non starter.
We need to be training up some younglings.
Wow, you're right, I didn't realize she was that old.
Warren is a woman and economically progressive and America hates people who are either of those things, let alone both.
Well, half of those were people who ran against Biden, so that makes sense.
I remember being impressed with Klobuchar, and incredibly impressed with Buttigieg (though sadly he'd lose a lot of the religious vote, sigh). I wish I liked Booker more... But yeah there are some acceptable options there, that's a relief.
So yeah, lightning primary?
Pritzker is the only name on there with the chops for it. Maybe Walz, but he is DFL so I can't see the DNC even looking at him.
