A Sean O’Brien and Ro Khanna ticket would win in a landslide but the Dems care more appealing to rich white people and their donors than winning elections, so we’ll get Mayor Pete or Gretchen Whitmer and get creamed.

A Dem in KY and one of the most popular Governors in the US

The coasts will vote for him. Middle America will vote for him.

I also like Chris Murphy but I fear that many people hate Connecticut too much.


Connecticut, the suburb of New York. Hated by the middle because of its Donne thon to NYC. Hated NYers because it isn’t NYC.

It is Tim Kaine, I tell you. He would have a strong chance against Vance (if he runs).

Dems definitely need a midwesterner, whether it’s Dingell or not. Coastal elites in the party despise them but they cannot win without them.

I like AOC. I like PB.

Omg would you stop with the Mayor Pete nonsense.

Tell me you’re an UMC liberal from the east coast without telling me you’re an UMC liberal from the East Coast.

I used to think Gavin with Gretchen would make a strong ticket but Gavin isn’t hitching himself to her anymore.

But what is his base in the Democratic party? I don't think he's particularly popular in California. I'm not even sure what the Dem platform will be in 2028 coming off expected pickups in 2026. Maybe it's easy to ride an anti-Trump wave in the general, but winning the primary will be different. Someone will rise to capture the popular imagination. Recently, it's been folks like Obama, AOC, and now Mamdani.
