Look, I will play my cards on the table: if I had my way, Liz Warren would be the one. Liz was loud and progressive before progressive was cool. Yes, i can mention the ways that i am disappointed that Biden seems to be the head:
Do the ever so coveted "undecided white voters", i.e. the ones that the party seems to want more than the rest, really get to set the pace, despite the fact we know half of them will still vote Trump, even if he promised to sell them to a glue factory?
Do we still get to shush anything to the left of Eisenhower, despite the fact that he knows conservative ideas, even if they are packaged as centrist ideas, do not work?
Do we still get to slam Milennials and Gen X, even though Obama was the youngest in years?
Yes...I feel all of this, and it hurts. It hurts that even when we win, I know that Biden may not listen to us.
However, let me say this...I knwo full well that unless trump is removed from power, this country is DONE FOR. They are already ready to replace Ginsburg, despite this whole "let the election decide" BS they did with Garland. Yes, the centrists do use the lazy "who else you gonna vote fer": stuff, but in this case, Trump has changed the right to the outright fascist.
If Biden wins, yes even if Biden wins, he must get our vote, period.

(1,123 posts)I love her, have voted for her twice and will continue to, but I really dont think she can win in the rust belt states. I only care about beating Trump. We need to look at this election the way it is, an electoral college fight.
