I’m a right-leaning Trump-hostile independent. Beshear is on my “do not vote for” list because of COVID. Based on past experience, I assume someone will chime in to the effect of “lol screw you maga!” But (1) I’m not MAGA and (2) if you’re hoping to win elections, you should try to win votes like mine!
The problem is that there are lots of single issue voters like you. You’re all about COVID policy. Someone else is all about immigration. Someone else is up in arms about trans rights. Maybe we should just poll test every single issue and create an AI candidate that optimizes among all possible positions. Or… don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

Because of what the dems did during Covid I would be happy to see them suffer and suffer and suffer electorally until the end of time.
If just one of them would come forward and apologize for their conduct, policies, and rhetoric during that time I might consider voting for them.
But they never will. Because being a dem means never having to say you’re sorry.
We aren’t apologizing because we weren’t wrong. The one area Dems screwed up was closing schools for too long under pressure from teachers’ unions. Otherwise (vaccines, masks, etc) we did just fine. By the way, you do recall that Trump was President during the worst of the epidemic right? Actually he did pretty well too.

What about James Talarico from Texas?

He blends Christian faith with progressive ideas. In a match-up with JD, I think a significant number of Christian right would line up behind him. Even Rogan said he should run for president.

I’ve heard some interviews with him and he sounds like an earnest guy. But do we have to cater to Christians? Remember separation of church and state?
Christians are a big voting block, peeling off a few from R can swing an election.

AOC is your best bet but you won't pick her because *everyone else* is a sexist and racist. The democrats in this thread repeatedly demanded a white man as president, particularly a southern white man. You know, for... all those deplorable racists.
Newsom is most likely. He's the white man you want. But he will lose because he has cocaine finance bro vibes, admitted to sleeping with a teen, and has run California into the ground.
