Long way indeed. Still think the DNC needs a structural overhaul before even thinking about candidate selection, but I love Beshearโs track record personally.

17.11.2024 21:12 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I agree, unfortunately. Love the work heโs doing in Kentucky and think heโd be great in a general election, but canโt see him winning the primary at the moment.
But who knows what the landscape will look like in 2028.
Iโm fully onboard with this. Beshear is one of those rare politicians that can seamlessly appeal to both sides.

The reference to Gen X was a conclusion drawn from the graphic.
One that is reasonably inferred from what IS there.
How is this trolling?

This is from the #UFC309 event happening tonight. Trump canโt go one second without Elon attached to his hip.

STILL waiting for someone on the right to explain how tariffs and mass deportation will make the economy stronger than what it is today.

Even if the message isnโt true, if it *sounds* good enough, voters will flock to it.
Yeah between his polices on homelessness, high tax rates, and general perception as being a โsuper liberalโ, heโll have a high mountain to climb , and thatโs just not what the DNC needs this next go round.

I donโt think AOC is shooting for a VP position this early either. Could see her challenging for governor one day, though.
The โPopular With Friendsโ feed is an easy way to keep up with the most liked posts from people you follow.
Doesnโt necessarily replace a โTrendingโ feature, but itโs better than nothing.
Way too early 2028 prediction: Georgia and North Carolina both swing back blue. Georgia has been trending left for a while now while the down ballot races in NC heavily favored Dems this cycle. Thoughts?
