Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: It's interesting the no DUers (or no countable ones) have jumped on the Klobuchar bandwagon. nt [View all]Awsi Dooger

Unfortunately Democrats do not have sound grasp of priorities or the applicable math. A socialist does not win in a nation with 9% more conservatives than liberals
Especially when all the swing states are swing states for exactly that reason...they contain roughly the same ideological breakdown as the nation itself
We think of Michigan as a Democratic state. We are dunce enough to define it that way alone. Meanwhile it was 36% conservatives to 27% liberals in 2016. That's what we face.
Swing voters are very real. They dictate outcomes. Fear is very real. Incumbency is very real.
Moderates are not the exciting choice. They are the correct choice. I'll always leave enthusiasm in the coat rack if I can have preference arm in arm
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
