I posted this because a lot of people here on FR and some voters think that no Democrat can beat Trump in 2020 because they are horrible candidates.

The 2020 field reminds a lot of people of the 1992 Democratic field.

Clinton emerged from nowhere; remember all the big dogs the Democrats had were thinking of running in 1996 (Gore, Cuomo, etc.)

It was so bad for Democrats in 1991-1992 that they considered bringing back George McGovern to run in 1992!

In recent weeks, George McGovern, who led Democrats to a landslide defeat in the 1972 election, has been one of the most visible Democrats testing the waters.

Democrats know that in 2020, Hillary is finished. She ain’t running again. Michelle O?

Avoiding overly optimistic predictions is a good idea. However If the Democrats have miracles to pull off, what are they?
