"If Biden stays in the race he's going to have a comeback kid narrative in a few months that gets pushed hard by the same media outlets trying to drive him out today.

I said immediately after the debate that Biden would need to weather the storm for about 2 weeks - after which time the Dems and their media will circle the wagons and pretend that they never said Joe's brain was broken. I would say that I am a genius for calling this out, but I think the script was pretty obvious to everyone. The only thing I am hearing is that Obama is the one still leading the charge to oust Joe for the purpose of installing Michele at the convention - so, I don't think that is settled yet but I would suspect that challenge will only go on for another week or so.

Based on polling, she is the only one that has a shot at winning and Obama has permanently burned his bridges with the Biden camp with this ouster attempt. If Obama still wants control, and it is obvious that he does, he must use Michele as he surrogate now. So, whether Michele wants it or not is kinda irrelevant - sorta like Joe's opinion is now less meaningful that Jill's on the matter.

You are missing the point - Dems are the pro war party now so Israel and Iran attacking each other, Israel poised to invade Lebanon, the ongoing Gaza genocide, ramping up the war in Ukraine, and fighting the Houthis are all GOOD THINGS to them. WW3 will be good for business in their minds and that is why they are trying to spark it.

I trust Emerson and pretty much every other poll more than the Washington Post - and they all show Trump crushing each and every Dem including Harris by 6 points. When you take into account that the Dems need to win the general by ~3% to win the EC, it means Trump is effectively +9 vs. Harris.

The only one with a shot is Michele but I am guessing her ratings tank when she is put in front of the people again.

Very true. We all know the one thing Democrats love more than a demented guy is an ANGRY demented guy yelling and threatening people. That explains the explosion in mentally ill blue cities doing exactly that. Also why the old guy yelling at kids to stay off the grass is so well respected and loved.

"The FACT is that most voters don't want either Trump or Biden."

Trump is up with true independents - we just have had a recent explosion in Dems claiming to be independents to avoid the Biden --------.

"Harris could beat Trump, as could a couple of Dem Govs."

Polling says no on any Dem gov. As to Harris, there is a reason why she was not the Day 1 favorite to replace Biden. The people running the party know Harris has worse odds than Joe.

"You should be embarrassed, and afraid, that Michelle is a 59-40 favorite.

I hope you honestly believe that and install her as the candidate.

Right now, the Dems are playing "if only the back-up QB would play - we would win the Super Bowl!"

"- Michelle is a 59-40 favorite."

per 538:
IPSOS: 47/35, Michele + 12

There is no way Michele is cracking 50% in a general election.

You are swimming in alternative facts again. But, I hope you believe them.

"Claiming those questions were pre-screened is crazy."

You really think so? We just had a radio host fired for exactly that and other interviewers said everything was highly scripted.

Further, he is looking down and reading the reporter names so AT A MINIMUM he has a pre-ordained order for the questions.

"At the start reporter after reporter pushed the "you are old and unfit" narrative.

This was needed to retain some semblance of an impartial press. But, there is no follow up challenging him. If he had a GOP version of Jim Acosta circa 2016, he would have broken down at the podium. The media double-standard in Trump vs. Biden is still laughable.

#93 | POSTED BY NERFHERDER"

My guess would be that participation falls back to historical ranges (60-61%) vs. 66% in 2020.I think Trump matches or beats 74M votes - the Democrat, no matter who it is, will not come close to 81M votes - which will not only lose them the 2024 election, it is just add more fuel to the fire that 2020 was a fraud election.

I don't think Dems want to play this game.

"I don't know about it being because of msm.
#105 | POSTED BY HORSTNGRABEN"

It is not because of the msm - it is because the party leaders know now that these are loser issues for the Democrats other than abortion. And on abortion, Trump's statement on it during the debate took the wind out the Dem sails on that issue as his position is wholly reasonable to most Americans that want restrictions on abortion - including a ban on post-birth abortion.

What happens when a late term abortion is attempted but is unsuccessful in killing the fetus and the fetus has been removed from the body?

What happens is exactly what was former VA Gov. Northam stated in his video interview.

"She said these types of claims misleadingly try to equate an intervention that might take place in the third trimester when there's a fetal anomaly with an elective abortion where someone can just decide after birth that they don't want a baby."
#115 | POSTED BY CORKY"

So, you just 100% confirmed exactly what I said. A baby is born (post birth) and then a decision is made to keep or kill the baby. You are claiming this is not the case?

"Which don't include "raped or molested".
#119 | POSTED BY REDIAL"

Well, the jury selected that Trump did not rape E Jean Carroll and you still repeat it anyways. So, what is good for the goose is good for the gander - and in this case, I don't know how you would interpret inappropriate showers in a way that does not indicate molestation - but again, you are free to try to do so.

"Abortions later in pregnancy are usually the result of serious complications, such as fetal anomalies, that put the life of the woman or fetus at risk, experts say."

#116 | POSTED BY CORKY"

Notice the word USUALLY - so, if we put in place an exception for "serious complications, such as fetal anomalies, that put the life of the woman at risk" - you would be okay with a ban on late term abortions?
