| At this point I think De Santis will win handily. Biden is beating himself at this point. If he doesn’t run, all bets are off but I don’t think he will back down. He thinks he is doing a great job. |

Obviously I would prefer Biden because I am a democrat. But I agree with you that if '24 is Biden vs DeSantis than DeSantis will win without too much trouble.
Biden is very disappointing. I remember when he announced he was running I was really pissed off. Although in hindsight that might have meant the nominee was Bernie Sanders in which case I think we'd still be stuck with Trump. |
| Biden served his purpose. Anything more is extra credit. |
| Hillary! |
|
Democrat here. I was also disappointed that Biden was the candidate, but the big concern was about beating Trump. Trump really screwed us up in so many ways. I hope that Biden does not run again. |
| I would vote for Biden over DeSantis in a heartbeat. The entire Democratic Party could be pulling a Weekend at Bernie’s and I would still vote for Biden’s puppet corpse over DeSantis. |
+1 I would illegally vote twice to vote for Biden over DeSantis. I think Little D has painted himself into a bit of a corner. He could have seemed like a normie R who could have appealed to disaffected Ds and Is, but instead he went full throttle culture war. Who do you think wants all this anti-gay legislation? Who wants petty vindictive attacks on Disney - Disney?! But I do worry. |
Same here. It's just so sad to think of having DeSantis in the White House. What is with this country? You want a Republican, okay, but can't you even find anybody halfway sane? |
+1 to post of these posts. If it's Biden vs DeSantis I'm voting for Biden. DeSantis has heated up some really dumb culture wars for no valid reason. |
|
I really really wish Biden would not run, but I have absolutely no idea who could step up at this point and take the nomination with any kind of strength.
DeSantis will almost certainly be the GOP nominee, and he'll almost certainly win. He won't get my vote, but he'll convince way too many "Youngkin isn't that bad" morons that he isn't really Trump. |
| NOT VOTING FOR ANY REPUBLICAN AT ALL UNTIL THEY RETURN TO THEIR SENSES! So this independent will be voting for Biden again! |
|
"DeSantis has heated up some really dumb culture wars for no valid reason."
The valid reason is that he is now tied with Biden. Democrats *still* haven't learned that pushing their social issues so aggressively is harming them. |
| No. Biden is fine. I think he will pull a similar coalition of moderates again. |
| DeSantis, no question. He is not “anti-gay,” as much as the usual LWNJs like to pretend he is. He is anti-teaching about sexuality in public school K-3. That’s it. I’m sure deep down you people know this, but it’s nice to pretend otherwise for political gain, amirite? |
| I like Biden and can't stand DeSantis, but I think Dems need to be getting a strong slate of younger candidates ready. |
