General Discussion

(23,905 posts)That wasn't the point of my OP. My point was with all the HRC bashing, and "if she's the candidate I'm not going to hold my nose and vote for her" comments, are so self defeating. I would love to have an unknown, or known progressive run against her, if for no other reason than to make her move more to the left and if she ends up being the nominee to toughen her up for the general. But so far I don't see anyone stepping up to the plate or even indicating except for Bernie Sanders. Actually Sherrod Brown would be my pick. But here a list of possibles. Which one has the best credentials, and could also win a general election?
Joe Biden
Andrew Cuomo
Kirsten Gillibrand
Amy Klobuchar
Martin O'Malley
Bernie Sanders
Brian Schweitzer
Mark Warner
Elizabeth Warren
Jim Webb
