Set aside message or voter demographics for a moment, what current Dem could get elected in today's atmosphere?

Posted by Fuzzy (aka mrfuzzy) Nov 6 '24, 08:17

We've proven we won't elect a woman. So Whitmer is out.
Newsom might be possible but anyone from CA will be painted as an extreme liberal.
Bernie is too old.
Pete is fantastic but would we elect a gay man before we would elect a woman?
Shapiro maybe?

Hickenlooper? Though I feel like he has little recognition outside of Colorado -- nm* - prayformojo Nov 6, 08:24 3
- I'd put J.B. Pritzker in a similar category. Seems to be doing good work in Illinois, but with little recognition nationally. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Nov 6, 08:32 2
  - My parents really like him. -- nm - Dark Callisto 🦊 Nov 6, 08:41 1
    - We like him. We're about the only ones in our town...but we like him. -- nm - Turd Ferguson Nov 6, 08:43
Josh Shapiro? -- nm - ReluctantCynic Nov 6, 08:23
