Democratic Primaries

Mr.Bill

Which of our candidates would do best against Romney? [View all]

Pure speculation, of course, but if you ask me Romney smells blood in the republican waters and still wants to be president. He would have as good a chance as anyone to win the nomination if Trump was out of the picture.

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