My personal favorite is Amy, but this is strictly business

which is why I am supporting Joe for the nomination. I think in a general election Joe has the best chance of winning. If he slips I am hoping Amy can step in. I really like Bernie and certainly would vote for him in the general, but I think with him we'd spend the whole election talking about Socialism and his health rather than Trump and it would just give Trump the opportunity to do what he does best, fear monger.

I am just trying to be practical.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

I would also say that if she won’t concede, I am with Amy until the race has been mathematically determined. But she would never do that.

So, I'm keeping my powder dry until I get more info about several of the candidates.

My heart is mostly with Warren (and before that, Kamala Harris), but I've been preparing myself for the strong possibility I'll have to support another candidate, which I happily will do because my priority is to get Trump out. I thought it would be Biden, who I strongly like too. I'm also increasingly interested in Bloomberg, who I think could demolish Trump. But whoever can decisively beat the orange trash bag, that's who I'm supporting.
