The Senate is a huge problem for Democrats
And it’s not going to get better soon.

Trump's 2020 campaign manager looks like a douchey bro who would be vaping while standing in line for beer.

Do you really think Al Franken is more likely than Warren or Bernie?
1. Biden
2. Kamala
2. Sanders



Franken much as I live him is done
I like Steve Bullock, Amy Klobuchar, and Beto.
Oh I was not saying who I like


I will decide during primaries…willing to give kamala Harris a good look
I like Kamala, but I like her in the Senate. I just don't think POC+Progressive Wing+California=Winning General Electon Ticket
Already auditioning for that role is an eclectic group of ambitious Democrats, including three senators who appear all but certain to run: Kamala Harris of California, Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Cory Booker of New Jersey. All three have moved well past the point of simply weighing a candidacy, and are assembling the infrastructure for a campaign as they prepare to make their final decisions.

Two potentially formidable entrants, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York and Mayor Eric Garcetti of Los Angeles acknowledged this week that they are considering campaigns. And Gov. Steve Bullock of Montana was in New York in the days after the election meeting with wealthy party donors, introducing himself as a dark horse from a red state with the ability to reach out to rural America.

Democrats Have Two Paths for 2020: Daring or Defensive. Can They Settle on Either?
I will not support Gillibrand in any way

That I can tell you
Richard Ojeda
I do think voting for trump and people knowing
… seems like a bad way to start a bid
A Kamala/Sinema ticket would be the foxiest ticket ever.
Beto O’Rourke blows up the 2020 Democratic primary
freezing Democratic donors and potential campaign staffers in place as they await word of his plans.
I'm not sure that the rope-a-dope technique on the democratic voter is the right approach

Democrats will hold 12 debates for the 2020 presidential contest

Six debates will take place in 2019, DNC Chairman Tom Perez said, and six in 2020

jez Democratic front-runners for 2020? There are 31 -Chris Cillizza
John Kerry is thinking about it !?!

Sexy Veagan should really pick Deez nuts as his running mate

oh man missed this news at the time….
The Federal Election Commission Is Cracking Down on Deez Nuts and Dat A$$

Say goodbye to your favorite fake presidential candidates.
Pelosi, bitch . . . Pelosi.
