Sure they will be. They'll look at the poll results, throw them in the garbage, and run Newsom like they were already planning to

They weren't happy about Bernie and look at the fucking mess they caused.

The DNC is currently up shit creek. Many other major Democratic organizations are out fundraising them by a wide margin. Many "true blue" Democrats are pissed as hell at DNC leadership and how utterly spineless and opaque they're being. I don't think we're going into this next election cycle with a DNC that's powerful enough to thumb the scales in that way

Personally, I think it is because there was no Democratic Party primary. Biden stole the time that any potential candidate could have used to prove their mettle to voters.

DNC has already shown they aren’t taking that as the lesson learnt. They won’t even release the 2024 autopsy cause they don’t like what it says

I'm pretty sure it was the opposite. I still voted for her cause Trump was worse. But I felt then like I do now. She's a Republican. Her policies are conservative and Republican.

She came out look ling like Darth vader in one of the televised things she did and did the war hawk dance. Fuck off forever, you lost to Donald Fucking Trump after spending 1.5 billion.

its almost like all legacy media is inherently fascist

Many = the author. Every time.

There is absolutely nothing you can say about a hypothetic 2028 election in 2026.

Speculation on the 2028 presidential race began five minutes after the 2024 polls closed.

The Forever Campaign is much like the Forever War, in so far as it is a suffocating political miasma that strangles any other conversation.

They run polls on potential 2028 primary candidates all the time. This was the first one AOC has led in. It is notable.

The point of these polls isn’t to predict who the Democratic candidate for president will be in 2028. The point is to gauge what the Democratic primary electorate is currently feeling/prioritizing. They’re moving away from “just give me a safe white guy who can win the general” and toward “give me the most progressive one you got.”

They will destroy her, she's worse than Bernie because she's not in her 80s, so they will sabotage her in every way possible. It's almost as if their entire scam depends on it keeping people like her out of office. They will at least be sure to keep her out of any leadership role.

I'd love to be wrong, as an Independent I will vote for her over any other person serving in office now. At least she's held an actual job.

The Democratic party is a private institution and won't be swayed by anything as silly as votes.

They'll play nice and keep it on the down low and then pull some Obaman, secret, backroom Super-Tuesday fuckery to steal the momentum and likely nomination from ~~Sanders~~AOC and give it to a center-right, corporatist shill like Buttgiggle or Shamala.

Gotta get the red Dems out.

They're drinking the kool aid.

Harris lost because she never should have been nominated. Before she was nominated she was polling at 2% among Democrats. Nobody wanted her. And her campaign offered zero new ideas or new energy or new solutions, basically promising to be Biden 2.0 (just without the trust carried over from Obama's presidency). Obviously that didn't work, and (just like Hillary), 'I'm not Trump' wasn't enough to get her elected.

Her being progressive had NOTHING to do with it.

And I would NEVER let any maga family live it down. Everytime would be like that Asian surgeon from Scrubs.

AOC President with Bernie as Senate Majority Leader.

Well, there is a thing called counterculture. One generation didn't like the prevailing culture they grew up in, and so they go against it and set new values. This then leads to the following generation disliking that new culture and go against it.

Rinse and repeat.

she’ll probably not get jack shit done because of the newly massively gerrymandered congress, intrinsically anti-democratic senate, and actively hostile SCOTUS.

Using the Trump precedence, she can ignore Congress and SCOTUS.

No one on the list has.
