  • Re: 2020 Democrat Challengers Part II: There Can Be Only One




    Everyone polling below Beto should be cut out of the debates. Call it a field.

    Also, LOL at DeBlasio polling at 0%.

      The pollsters should start doing IRV. That would get people used to it and eventually we could use it in the elections themselves.

        Inslee, Booker, Bullock and Hickenlooper are serious candidates who just have zippo name recognition. You can't drop people from the debates before they've had any chance to sell themselves.

        The solution is don't start the debates this far out. We're starting the playoffs before we even had a regular season.

            Plenty of time to cull the herd. That should start in Iowa. If the candidates from the middle of the country don't win-place-show over there (Buttigieg, Klobachur, O'Rourke, etc) one would think they'll start to drop out.

              Oh my lord even Kepler is saying to do a townhall not a debate. You just have no idea how any of this works do you? You also have no idea how to actually read what people are saying in any sort of context. At least when Scooby does it that is a bit you really are this dense arent you?

              I dont even know what your second sentence is trying to say because last I checked no Dem wants a "non-green" candidate. I mean I am sure you will find some weird way to twist it that we all do since none of us think Inslee has a shot in hell of winning but that is just you being you. I would expect nothing less from someone who uses the term "stan"

              But just so you cant say I never said it (even though you will) Climate Change is a huge issue and needs to be part of the agenda. THAT DOESNT MEAN IT NEEDS ITS OWN DEBATE! Those things are not the same, and just because Perez agrees with that doesnt mean he fears it. It means at a debate you need more than just a single topic...especially since it will be a half hour of mostly agreement.

                Booker has been in the public eye since he was Mayor of Newark. It is ridiculous to pretend he hasnt had exposure. He is polling low because he brings nothing to the fight that others dont also have and often in better ways. And sorry Inslee, Bullock and Hickenlooper are NOT serious candidates. They are good candidates but they arent serious contenders. I doubt if any one of them finish in the Top 5. (anything below that they might as well not run let alone call them contenders)

                Keep them around for agenda moving and later endorsement but that is it. I wouldnt even bet on them as a longshot with a great payout because it is like betting on the Lions to win the Super Bowl

                  I don't mean serious as necessarily being top contenders, I mean they are legitimate candidates who are at least attempting to win, unlike Williamson (selling products) or Yang (spreading an idea) or Tulsi (marketing Tulsi). They have the potential to be effective chief executives.

                  We shouldn't even be polling yet -- those numbers are meaningless.

                    Ridiculously low bar. Anyone polling higher than DeBlasio has better odds of winning it all than the Lions.

                      Inslee isn’t even trying to win, he’s a single issue candidate trying to advance a specific agenda. Most of the other (good on climate) candidates are for having this debate? What exactly is the downside to having it for the American public?

                      And we all know why it’s not happening, Perez doesn’t want to **** off the fossil fuel execs and reversed the rule about taking FF $$$. But yes please spin this as to us not needing this debate because of ~totally benevolent reasons~

                          Polling is stupid at this point which is why I dont care who is winning. The only real value it has is it lets certain candidates know how far from relevant they are. Most of them probably know but still. Beto at 2% is probably scaring his staff quite a bit. Anyone below that doesnt need a poll in Iowa to tell them their prospects are slim RIGHT NOW. That could change tomorrow if something breaks right.
