You rang?
After all, I won in 2016. Really, I did.

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends
Are you ready for a deadlocked Democrat convention next year? – Because that’s where all of this Democrat traveling clown show is headed.
Fauxcahontas is now an even more-clear favorite to get to the convention with the most delegates next July, although her chances of arriving there with a full majority needed to win on the first ballot remain small. Hell, she’s already playing the role of the front-runner in the debates.
Last night in Houston, she stood quietly for the most part while also-ran doofuses like Irish Bob O’Rourke and Julian Castro and Amy Klobuchar and Andrew Yang shouted and gesticulated and poured out the “I’m gonna grab your guns” and “Trump’s a racist” red meat for the party’s lunatic Twitter-outraged base. During the debate’s first hour, almost 20 minutes went by in between times when Little Mouth Always Running actually opened her mouth on stage, as all the nitwits around her tried to tear each other apart. That could be an all-time record for Princess 1/1024th.
While Yang was promising to have his campaign illegally pay out $1,000 a month for the next 12 months to twelve families in order to buy their votes, Preacher Pete was trying to get everybody to sing his own particular weird version of Kumbaya, Castro was cracking jokes about Biden’s advanced age, The Commie was trying to croak out some Bolshevik nostrums from his 77 year-old sore throat, Kamala was cackling like an evil character from a 1950s Disney movie, O’Rourke was promising to come grab everybody’s guns and trying to figure out exactly when to toss out an f-bomb and Klobuchar was getting ready to start throwing notebooks at the moderators, the fake Indian was doing her best imitation of Sitting Bull, calmly observing the fray and happy to let her enemies destroy one another.
It was a smart strategy. Whatever else one thinks about Sen. Warren, you cannot deny that she’s strategically smart. I mean, hell, she spent a virtual lifetime pretending to be someone she isn’t in order to advance her career before Trump came along and exposed her fraud to the world. That alone tells you she’s a clever schemer.
She’s clever enough to understand that being a life-long fraud is in fact a badge of honor in a Democrat presidential nominating contest, and so there she was last night, standing right in the middle of that stage next to Biden. She probably came into last night planning to take some shots of her own at Biden, but quickly realized that Castro and Harris and other were doing a fine job of exposing the elderly hack for what he is.
That quick thinking also shows she knows her own limitations. She has to understand that her angry school-marm voice and speaking tone quickly begins to grate and irritate, so why overdo that during a 3-hour debate that was viewed by millions?
As for Biden, if it weren’t for the fact that he’s been such a despicable swamp creature hack for so many decades it would be sad watching his visible decline on national television. His cognitive functions are so clearly limited now that it is visible on his face every time he’s asked a question for which he hasn’t been coached, or one that touches on an uncomfortable subject. If you can stand it, go watch a replay of the debate on Youtube. You can see Biden visibly recoil and squeeze his eyes shut whenever he’s asked a question that surprises him, which was typically from another candidate, not the accommodating moderators.
I’ve been telling you since April that Biden’s polling lead would be gone by October and he’d be out of the race entirely after next March 4, Super Tuesday. He’s right on schedule to meet that calendar, especially after his performance last night. The more he gets exposed to the public, the worse he looks.
As for the others, Harris is done. She is an awful campaigner and frankly a horrid debater. Everything about her screams insincerity and meanness.
Sanders will also fade after this croaking performance. Democrat voters are all about optics and the feels, and a 78 year-old croaking at them for three hours will make them feel all nervous and stuff.
Irish Bob is a furry circus clown who just announced the fourth re-boot of his campaign in six months. He’s to the point where even shallow Democrat voters think he’s a shallow opportunist.
Julian Castro never has been in any way relevant in this race, and his low attacks on Biden last night won’t change that.
Preacher Pete is cute as a button and might look good as arm-candy for Fauxcahontas in a general election race.
Cory Booker is Cory Booker and always will be, so no one should take him seriously in this race.
Yang is just weird. What was going on with that top button on his shirt last night? Everyone kept waiting for it to pop open and expose some odd tattoo and thus only heard about 1 out of 7 words he had to say. Again, Democrat voters are all about optics and feels, dude. Get a shirt that fits.
Klobuchar is just the angry version of Kirstin Gillibrand. No reason for her to be up there in the first place. She’s just wasting everybody’s time.
I feel like I’m forgetting somebody here, but honestly, I don’t care.
Here are my updated odds for the 2020 Democrat nomination after last night’s atrocity:
Fauxcahontas – 3 to 1
The Commie – 10 to 1
Biden – 50 to 1
Harris – 100 to 1
Preacher Pete – 100 to 1
The Field – 100 to 1
Someone not yet in the race – Even odds
Brokered convention, here we come.
That is all.
Good post. Something else to consider is that the people who write these articles assume very little changes between now and the convention. Most of these candidates will drop out long before then ... and their supporters will migrate to other candidates.
If the convention is deadlocked on the first ballot, the outcome becomes unpredictable. For one thing, the super-delegates are not allowed to vote on the first ballot, but can sway the outcome afterward. You could expect a lot of back-room deals, and who knows how that will turn out?
Beware if Bloomberg
“...if nothing else, that the tumor that is Liberalism has metastasized into a very, very ugly cancer....”
Yep. We old timers have seen it before. We have a name for it: COMMUNISM.
Notice something about that photo? She looks the same way I’ve seen her in almost every photo and video clip of a public speech or similar appearance she’s made in the last two years. Her ass is planted in a soft chair or on a couch ... because she can’t even stand up for more than a few minutes at a time.
“...Draft the rookie!...”
Naaah....”Big Mike” has too much to hide..like a penis or something.
Hillary.
She skates by the primaries and only has to face three debates with Trump.
Or a secret deal with Michael Obama.
(s)He just has to not freak out during the debates.
I think the Dems have likely written off 2020, and are giving the old Dems (Hillary, Biden, Bernie) one last hurrah before telling them to get off the stage and go away.
The purpose of this campaign will be to find out who is viable for 2024.
What happened to the Oprah and Tom Hanks presidential rumors? Can Hollyweird save us from Trump?
Obama to preside.
Your theory, if true, was Jeffrey Epstein’s death sentence.
Draft the wookie!
If a brokered convention, I’d put money on the Wookie before PIAPS.
The Dems may want a celebrity like Oprah, but Trump is the only person since Reagan that has celebrity experience (name recognition), the skin thick enough and the mind nimble enough to handle politics, imo.
I also am of the opinion that the Obama political “posse” is more capable that what PIAPS could assemble (given the conduct of the PIAPS 2016 campaign).
Of course the easy question is what kind of better argument could PIAPS make in 2020 vs. 2016, given the greater visibility of PIAPS’ corruption and Trump’s success (out of lame international agreements, economic growth, improvements in immigration/wall and, last but not least, conservative judges)? Answer: none.
2024 viability would be important with the right vp pick.
It doesn’t matter.
Psychojawea is failing to sell to Bernie’s partisans.
I believe that he will run if not nominated, and if they pick an establishment corruptocrat the old Commie may pull more votes than the Democrat Nominee.
I agree, it’s going to be a Warren/Richardson ticket
analysis
1) He was right on Biden, he was all over the place incoherent. Kinda sad to watch as he clearly isn’t in full charge of his faculties. As much as he’s the safe bet for the majority of the party, he’s failing.
2) Beto, unconstitutionally confiscating guns is a non-starter - DOWN BIG TIME
3) Bernie - he comes across as a kook, because he is. DOWN
4) Warren - I agree that she may be the final candidate because she can talk, chew gum, and flail her arms at the same time. But her politics are radical and won’t sell in a general outside of very liberal Dem Massachusetts.UP
5) Booker - no real plank except I’m Black and the country is racist. down
6) Castro, mean to grampa Joe - Down and OUT
7) Asian guy, sideways and soon out.
8) Klobachaur - sideways, not enough support or gravitas to get the nod
9) Kamala - very annoying and zero gravitas - flat on her back
10) Trump - the winner, these folks are plain kooky
11) Dem party - Down, seriously these potential nominees are not anything to cheer about.
12) OVERALL IMPRESSION - The debate consisted of platitudes and lacked any substantive proposals backed up with reality and numbers.
After all, I won in 2016. Really, I did.
Maybe I’m giving them too much credit, but if there is a brokered convention, I can’t see the Democrats being stupid enough to give the nomination to Hillary again.
And she will win - without one seizure or making one stupid comment
The more people see of Hillary, the more they hate her so she is running the perfect campaign
Scamming these nutcases into running and talking crazy so they can get rich and have national exposure can’t have cost her more than 75 million bucks which is a bargain to get the nomination
So, it will either be Fauxchohontas or............drum roll, they’ll draft Moochelle the Smell out of Chicago!
That bag has a purpose and its not to hold her phone. I doubt there is anything in there except a vial of virgins blood.
That bag covers a colostomy bag, and/or a brace, and/or the man behind the curtain. And occasionally Huma.
