She's favored to win.
CA will be dribbling results until 12/14. None of the races are officially over until then.

LOL sounds about right.
Kentucky blue but not Iowa, Michigan or Wisconsin? What on earth
You mean Harris/Beto
Nah I mean Beto/Harris. Beto is way more charismatic. I like Harris a lot too but Beto is on another level.
This election was 100% a referendum on Trump. You saw state level races breaking literally on his approval rating in many spots, flipping R->D or D->R as they nationalized.Kinda pointless to speculate about the electoral college without having any polls or any knowledge about the race whatsoever (aside from the GOP candidate of course).
The Legit 2020 people are
Harris, booker, Beto unless everyone agrees to have him as VP, Gavin Newsom,
Nobody over 70 who looks like they could die a year into office
Ehh maybe. But presidential elections tend to be more in favor of the presidential candidate's party more than the midterms. It'll be a lot closer than 2012, but so long as the economy stays good Trump stays a damn decent chance. Really depends on what candidate we choose, and a million other factors too.This election was 100% a referendum on Trump.

If this pattern continues it's hard to see an outcome where he actually has a path to 270 vs a candidate with a positive approval rating.
There is plenty of time for republicans to dig up or create dirt on O'Rourke. A sexual assault accusation is probably in it's early planning phase. 2020 is going to be something else.Beto and Harris are my finalists.
If I had to pick my heart, I'd pick Kamala because she's competent, brave and 100% progressive.
If I put on my political operative hat, I think Beto has the best chance. He's tall, good smile, genuine, likable, from the midwest, and energizes key demographics. He brings Dems together and he's not a centrist.
They tried with the project veritas nonsense claiming he was funding the caravan. It didn't work, but is a sample of what they will try to do.There is plenty of time for republicans to dig up or create dirt on O'Rourke.

I doubt any mainstream Republican would try to falsely accuse Beto of sexual assault. When it comes to light it was fake (and it does tend to come to light, cause word gets out people were paid off or asked to lie or w/e) that'd kill any chances Trump (and anyone involved in the conspiracy) has.There is plenty of time for republicans to dig up or create dirt on O'Rourke.

Well maybe. Kinda pointless though, cause anyone seriously supporting Trump already dismisses sexual assault allegations, or at the very least don't care enough about them not to vote for Trump. Shit, they got through Kavanaugh by making it about "me too" instead of a SCOTUS justice having to be seriously investigated because of potential crimes in his past.The goal wouldn't actually be huting Beto though. The goal would be dismissing sexual assault claims in general.
I'm not saying it doesn't matter, because obviously having a woman of color on the ticket will effect things. Too many racists and sexists out there not to. But if Harris is charismatic enough and a good enough campaigner it really shouldn't matter (see no further than Obama for this). Choose a candidate for what they represent to you, not what others may hate them for.Set aside the heart.
Whoever has the best chance of winning. I really hate to say it but nominating a woman of color this time may not be for the best. Right? I mean, my heart tells me women and minorities would flock to Harris, but 2016 and 2018 have quashed that idea.
ayyyyyy

8 years of war and a crashing economy helped. Trump's gonna be playing 2020 on easy mode (if Mueller comes up short).There's this guy name Barack Hussein Obama. He shouldn't run either.
Beto O'Rourke has a wife, two sons and one daughter.

He is a conservative Democrat who voted Trump in 2016. He has literally no base to appeal to.Richard Ojeda just announced his candidacy for President.

I like the guy's passion but in my opinion he doesn't have strongs views or a strong platform.
he made up the largest gap in the midterms, but ya I dont think he will get very far.
He's going to get crushed imo. He should have tried for another run at a house seat or maybe a senate run against Shelley Moore Capito's seat.Richard Ojeda just announced his candidacy for President.

No Florida would be undecided
Obama was a once in a generation (if not half century) politician. You shouldn't expect to see someone so skilled at speaking/etc again. (and its a lot easier to get re-elected than elected the first time, as long as you don't royally screw up)He still won in 2012 soundly. I know the environment isn't gonna be the same nor can most candidates match in quality. There was also a build up of racial resentment that Trump exploited. I just don't think we should limit ourselfs when we have a reality TV star as president.
They did choose a dem governorKentucky blue but not Iowa, Michigan or Wisconsin? What on earth
That was Kansas and only because Brownback was a massive failure and even then it took them years to wise up.
They shouldn't run on that. Cause it could be easily be twisted to: "They're trying to rig future elections!"Whenever the next president comes in - election reform must be a priority.
Kamala is a stunning woman, wow.Kamala Harris has no kids and an interracial marriage.
Beto O'Rourke has a wife, two sons and one daughter.
I wonder how significant this is for voters.
They did, under guise of voter fraudThey shouldn't run on that. Cause it could be easily be twisted to: "They're trying to rig future elections!"
Like, tell me you wouldn't be thinking about that if a Republican said they're running on "election reforms".
