Jill 31,812 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 1 minute ago, Chromatican said: Suggesting that progressives are too unpopular is such a bs argument. Biden barely won the primary against a progressive, and that was with the entire Democratic Party apparatus favoring him and nearly every candidate dropping out at once and coalescing behind him at the right moment, and he is barely winning against the most disastrous president in modern times. If he can barely do it then centrist dems who are becoming more and more like diet Republicans will either fail or win the White House by the skin on their teeth and the Republican Party is becoming too dangerous to let that happen. Nobody is suggesting progressives are unpopular! But expecting a progressive to succesfully run in 2024 is ignoring all the conditions that have made it impossible for something like that to happen until now, conditions that won't go away in only 4 years, let alone 4 years after a democratic nightmare.

I do think a left-wing politician can eventually win if the Cold-War generations die and Latinos make a bigger share of the US population. But until then? I don't see it happening. I just want to remind everyone that this was what the electoral map looked like for the Dems the last time the country got a taste of real, progressive leftwing leadership. We need a leftist in the mold of FDR. Give the public the policies they want according to all of the exit data we have from this election, for the love of god.

Kamala was unpopular with Democrats in the 2020 Primary and unless something drastic happens her popularity and enthusiasm towards her is not going to change. Meanwhile AOC is currently rising within the Party, and her power is only growing. Oh my god. We're going in circles now. I already explained why I think you're wrong.

True, and having this conversation is of course premature. I just don't see a set of circumstances where Kamala's popularity grows considerably in the next 3-4 years.

gabeoz 7,915 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 It's safe to say Biden will surpass Trump with around ~80K votes at the least in PA, probably more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
