Who will win the Democrat nomination?

I think Bloomberg would have the best shot at defeating Trump, but my guess is that it will be Elizabeth Warren.

With the polls spread out between 3 or 4 candidates, this would be an easy time for the party elders to work behind the scenes to assure their favored candidate wins. They don’t want Sanders and Warren’s numbers have dropped in half. She peaked too soon. So, by default, I think it’s Biden.

The place to go for this type of prediction is Nate Silver over at 538:

Biden has a strong lead, Sanders is probably in 2nd place. Warren self-destructed over single-payer healthcare. I think it's going to be Biden.

From Real Clear Politics

From Monmouth poll: After 8 months of campaigning, here's the change in net favorable ratings of the 2020 field in New Hampshire. Only one has improved his/her standing:

Yang + 38

Buttigieg -2

Warren -2

Klobuchar -2

Sanders -8

Booker -18

Biden -32

Its just too damned early to say. Remember how Obama was trailing all throughout 2008, not even winning a primary? The Oprah hosted a fundraiser for him and he even beat the presumptive Hillary. 2016: everyone, including me, considered Trump to be a circus sideshow. Ann Coulter an JS69 were the only two that called it.

If I had to guess, I would say Buttigieg. Biden is a doddering old man. Fauxcahontas is a serial liar and communist (same thing, I know), and Bloomberg has no record or message except for "I disagree with the other old, male, WASP, millionaire from New York".

The DNC will now allow a young, gay, male centrist to run for President. No chance. They want Biden, for the same reasons the Republicans ran Dole: his turn.

Biden should win unless his Alzheimer’s gets noticeably worse. If not Biden then Sanders. I don’t see Warren having a realistic shot.

But it doesn't matter. The Democratic Party has so incredibly fucked up the past few years, and Trump has had enough successes, that Trump is likely going to win re-election no matter who is is.

-->"Remember how Obama was trailing all throughout 2008, not even winning a primary?"

Not quit accurate. The Democratic caucus / primary cycle and Clinton vs. Obama went down like this, all in January 2008: Obama won Iowa caucus (admittedly not a primary). Then Clinton squeaked out win in New Hampshire 39% to 37%. Next was Michigan primary that Clinton won without Obama on ballot for some reason. Then Nevada caucus (again, not a primary) that Clinton won 51% to 45% over Obama. Then Obama smoked Clinton in South Carolina 55% to 27%, followed by Clinton smoking Obama in Florida 50% to 33%.

So it was pretty much game on from the beginning though she did overall better than him in the subsequent Feb 08 Super Tuesday voting.

Hard to call, this looks like the Republican field of the 2016, election, and we see how poorly that turned out, don't have a tremendously high regard for this group either, actually in 2016 I liked Jeb Bush, let's see how this plays out I wouldn't be disappointed if Bloomberg get's it but I fear that the example of 2016 has Bernie as the eventual winner, and my opinion of him is even lower than my opinion of Trump.

The Democratic base in the party of diversity will nominate a guy who bought a debate seat?

I think Bloomberg has no chance of getting the Democratic nomination. But as a third candidate in the general election, he could be the decisive factor, without even needing to win.

Trump was surprising in the 2016 primary. Like Nikki Halley said, "Wanting to be the loudest voice in the room."

The US had been on track with Western Europe up through the mid 60's, gradually moving to the Left.

Then Nixon unveiled his Southern Strategy, and then Christian Evangelicals dumped Carter and got Reagan elected. Since we have been moving to the insane and idiotic Right.

If we want to function in an advanced industrial and information economy, we have no choice but to move to the left. This is no longer a society of scarcity, it is a society of gross surplus. The rules really have changed, but Trump and the Republicans want us to go back to the Gilded Age.

Sanders is looking really good.

===> "Who Will Win The Democrat Nomination?"

Usually I'd have a strong opinion by the time that primaries start, but the Dem field is such a Grade A shit show that it's anybody's guess. I'm stunned that in a year with a somewhat vulnerable incumbent, that this this motley bunch is the best that they could field.

The four front runners now are:

  • A crazed Socialist;

  • A gay man who has never held big time office;

  • Pocahontas, who has already shot herself in the foot with her extreme policy stances; and

  • Joe Biden who, in a distant fourth and with no money left, has already proven too many times that he can't win a national election.

Then there is the Bloomberg wildcard. He is spending a shit ton in big primary states ahead of Super Tuesday.

What a bloody mess. I expect this shit show to play out all the way to the Democratic Convention.

My wild ass guess. Bernie wins the nomination. Gay / First husband plays less well deeper in the primaries. We're just not that woke yet. Sanders would be tempted to name Klobuchar VP, but there is no solidarity among women voters. So, he picks Andrew Gillum. Gillum had a very very close Florida gubernatorial loss to Trump's hand-picked candidate. That might swing Fl and definitely would swing the black vote. Results in another Bush / Gore toss up too close to call that night election.

Bloomberg has a ton of money to throw at ad's and lets face it, there is a lot of stupid people out there that will decide who they are voting for based on SNL skits or commentary from the daily show. So the right ad could land a lot of votes. On the other hand if every time you want to watch a youtube video you have to watch 6 to 30 seconds of Bloomberg ad, it could just be training a bunch of pavlov's dogs.
