    If not Biden....who?

    After the debate disaster the Dems have about 4 months left to either rehabilitate Biden, or pick a new candidate (with Biden stepping down voluntarily). As said elsewhere due to the pretty big dislike of both candidates which ever party bites the bullet and puts up someone reasonable will likely romp home (IMHO).

    So - for the Dems, if not Biden who and why?

    Who won the Trump-Biden presidential debate?

    It really is painful watching Biden have his 'moments'. Another 4 years, come on.

    I don't think I could bring myself to voting for either of them.

    ^^ My point. Dems need to bite the bullet.

    Possibilities include (and I am not sure of the "baggage" of all of them):

    Kamala Harris (would not be my choice)
    Pet Buttigeig (too much baggage?)
    Warren
    Klobuchar
    Raskin
    Newsome
    Jared Moskowitz

    They are loaded with talent.

    ^ Good choice.

    If the Dems really want to blow shit up - how about a Buttigeig-Kinzinger ticket?

    Gavin Newsom to be selected at Chicago Convention in August when Biden formally withdraws from the campaign and releases his pledges nominating the Calif. governors as his chosen successor.

    America is not yet developed to vote for a black woman.

    By your long-established posting history here, neither would you. You have shown yourself to be a racist piece of shit.

    As a Moderate I 'd vote for MsKit and Topper as VP, even if it meant renaming silk toad as VPexpatinAsia Forum.

    surely any sane Democrat must choose the stop Trump candidate Newsom looks pre anointed unless Snubby can be scrubbed up at short notice!

    The key to winning the campaign will be Tiktokers , X-rated smammers, spankers , Jaun Kerr's, and of course forum adeptness to send thousands of messages.

    Our very own Rounders correspondent Spamdreath powered by Harry's $3 chip and a hot Willybot will seal the deal?

    Newsom could jump right in tomorrow, and he is the best option IMHO, myself not so much.

    It's kind of surprising it's taken this long for the penny to drop.

    On that visit to Ireland a year ago he said he was cheering on Ireland in their forthcoming rugby match against New Zealand.

    The 'Black and Tans' as he called them.

    Maybe there's a higher tolerance for people who are clearly struggling in the US.

    Indeed a brit like Rishi even Obama or Macron would have been overlooked/ forgiven but from a so called Irish American?, he's a Grangegorman...........toast.

    I don’t think that’s the case, more a fear of facing facts and admitting the truth.

    I would say JB Pritzker, Governor of Illinois.

    Definitely got the personality for the job, and he would chew the orange turd up and spit him out.

    I can’t change it, so I ignore it and am happy for it.

    Newsom + Harris ticket runs up against the electoral college requirement that they must vote for at least one candidate from a different state than the electors. See Chaney's sudden move to Wyoming from Texas.
