It's January 2019. bearsfootball516 Jan 2019 #1

It wasn't too many decades ago SCantiGOP Jan 2019 #27

JFK announced in January 1960. RFK announced in March 1968 EffieBlack Jan 2019 #38

Both of them ran when there were very few primaries. former9thward Jan 2019 #50

I agree with Effie jodymarie aimee Jan 2019 #54

Or did the announced candidates Sherman A1 Jan 2019 #2

Nope, I think it's over... Kamala wins by a landslide! /sarcasm InAbLuEsTaTe Jan 2019 #42

Yeah, You are probably right Sherman A1 Jan 2019 #46

Meh, I'm not convinced any of them could win the nomination... Wounded Bear Jan 2019 #3

You're right, it's my opinion... Wounded Bear Jan 2019 #59

Joe really likes Senator Harris. Blue_true Jan 2019 #22

I'm not necessarily supporting Kamala Harris for the nomination. BlueStater Jan 2019 #8

I don't think so. I think that Warren has already faded from the news question everything Jan 2019 #9

I don't think it's going to happen Cha Jan 2019 #13

I agree. Her kick off today was stellar. I think her kick off will give Joe the peace to let it go LuvLoogie Jan 2019 #15

We're gonna see.. Cha Jan 2019 #21

You can take those last two sentences to the bank (Wall Street Big Bank). betsuni Jan 2019 #36

the difference being though, that Harris hit the ground with a huge windfall of cash from donors, JCanete Jan 2019 #14

Yes, but she is now a target and we've already seen a list of her past actions question everything Jan 2019 #19

My guess is Warren draws off Bernie votes. Blue_true Jan 2019 #25

With 2 yrs left not to late for anyone FloridaBlues Jan 2019 #11

No, foolish question. elleng Jan 2019 #12

Biden still has a window maybe qazplm135 Jan 2019 #16

I suspect that Beto isn't going to run. Heart doesn't seem to be in it. EffieBlack Jan 2019 #17

My sense also. nt Blue_true Jan 2019 #26

No. CentralMass Jan 2019 #18

I don't think EW or Gillibrand have made their splash. WeekiWater Jan 2019 #20

No. They just aren't as fucking RAD as Kamala ProudLib72 Jan 2019 #23

Not even close madville Jan 2019 #24

I think getting in early was an excellent move. betsuni Jan 2019 #28

Obama announced Feb 10, 2007 Jarqui Jan 2019 #32

The need to raise huge sums of money early on is much greater than it was in 2008. Garrett78 Jan 2019 #35

Obama and Sanders showed what grassroots fundraising can do Jarqui Jan 2019 #37

California moved up to join Texas on Super Tuesday. And there will be more candidates than usual. Garrett78 Jan 2019 #40

As states move away from caucuses, that too puts more emphasis on money Jarqui Jan 2019 #41

No hand-wringing here. Garrett78 Jan 2019 #43

I'm with you on your preferences Jarqui Jan 2019 #44

Yes. And Beto has already destroyed his momentum & chances ecstatic Jan 2019 #33

Several months from now is still not too late Awsi Dooger Jan 2019 #34

Several months from now *might* not be too late for Biden or Clinton. But... Garrett78 Jan 2019 #39

April or May might be too late but not January. comradebillyboy Jan 2019 #45

April or May would be too late for just about anyone not named Biden or Clinton. Garrett78 Jan 2019 #47

It's not only about the calendar EffieBlack Jan 2019 #48

That's especially important for those not named Biden or Clinton. Garrett78 Jan 2019 #49

My guess is mid-April is the cut-off date for getting early support. LanternWaste Jan 2019 #58
