The top Democrats have been flipping out since the debate, seeing their chances to win slipping away and finally being successful in pushing a very reluctant Joe Biden out of the 2024 race.
They were losing in the polls with Biden, which is why they did it. It wasn't because they suddenly realized he was incoherent. It's all about holding onto control. They're all fearful of former President Donald Trump coming in, not because they really think he's a "threat to democracy" but because they fear he might actually start holding people accountable.
So they threw Biden under the bus and now many have endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to take his place. Folks like Barack Obama are still silent on the matter, so it remains to be seen if it will be her. But at the moment, she would have to be called the front-runner for the nomination. No one else has so far stepped into the ring.
But so far, it's incredibly ironic karma that after all that effort, it sounds like Kamala is doing "not really any better" than Biden in the polls, as even MSNBC's Steve Kornacki admitted.
MSDNC: Kamala doesn't fare any better against President Trump than Crooked Joe did — and Democrats' hope to the contrary is "based more on hope than it is on numbers right now."

Trump is still up, 47 to 46 percent, according to Kornacki.
He said the belief from Democrats that Kamala is going to fare better than Biden in the general election is based more on "hope" than on the numbers. Whoops. That isn't going to make that MSDNC audience happy, prepare for tantrums and ripping their hair out.
The Real Clear Politics average has Trump up over Harris 48.1 to 46.2 percent.

As you can see, in the most recent poll recorded there, the Forbes/Harris X poll, that has Trump up by six points, that's counting the "leans," 53 to 47 percent with registered voters.

Notice also that Trump is way up with the independents, 56-44.
With likely voters, Harris does even worse, with leans, it's at 54 to 46 percent, with Trump up by eight.

There was movement in the post-drop-out Morning Consult poll, moving a few points from where Biden was. But Kamala was still down two points to Trump. 47 to 45 percent.
Now, this is all very new and she's not even the nominee yet, so we'll have to see if there's any further movement in the polls if she really becomes the nominee. But right now, it's looking a bit like they booted Biden but Kamala still isn't going to get them there.
Potato beats a coconut every day. :)
The media hype for Harris will flatten the bump Trump would have gotten from the convention. Then she will start dropping through to the Democrat convention.
Apparently the Stumblebum campaign is still sitting on $90M in donor cash and Kookaburra (Harris) is the only other person besides Stumble who can touch any of that legally.
A man on MSNBC (the oddball who is not a Leftist) said Americans are always fascinated by the shiny new toy, for a while.
RE: Dems rip their hair out about Kamala Harris polling....
James Carville: Not me.
There are likely no valid polling yet.
Measuring her against Trump when she was not going to be the nominee is probably not valid.
But be that as it may be, Trump’s lead has been sticky all year long and it was not because of Biden being old or anything of that sort.
It is because inflation, the border, the avalanche of prosecutions and general elitism. Trump is a populist candidate and that is something very difficult for them to defend. In fact, all those factors are difficult or impossible to defend.
So. October surprise. The ultimate surprise will be another assassination attempt, or three. They cannot let him win. They cannot conceal all the records because they know there will be someone here or there who makes copies.
They cannot let him win.
It’s a bit depressing that it’s this close. So many idiots
Oh, and she LOVES yellow school buses, Venn diagrams, KNOWS WHERE THAT "BIG COUNTRY" RUSSIA IS, and knows that "what will be, UNBURDENED BY WHAT HAS BEEN.." and a community is a town that a community runs for the community, blah blah blah..
It won’t be about her.
It will be about Trump, but that has backfired because the prosecutions have cost them a lot of votes.
The factors in play are:
1) Kennedy. He’s going to want some presence at the DNC
2) Her not being black will get coverage. There is too much time to hide it. It will cost 1-2% of the black vote.
Trump’s share is not going to decline. It is males and they are focused on the prosecution.
3) The border. The level of desperation can lead to complete reversal of all border policies. She can toss principles out the window and do WHATEVER IT TAKES. If that means close the border and mass deportations, she’ll do it.
4) Oh, you think #3 is not credible? It’s that or assassination. Which do you think is less credible? Reversing all policy or assassination?
3)
Those chumps love their "regime change" any way they can get it.
They are not in a pleasant place, that's for sure. Makes them... edgy.
> They cannot let him win.
They have all the cards, and next time they will kill him. Probably not another shooter -- guns can miss. I suspect their next attempt will take out more bystanders. It's not like they have any compunctions about collateral damage.
Banana republic jailing the opponent. Assassination. A coup d'etat to remove the stubborn old man. They're just getting things lined up.
The Kammy Polls should not be a surprise to anyone.
They have always been bad, unless heavily weighted with women voters or minority voters.
Ahh, I don’t believe the polls. There are way too many idiots though.
As you ave a short memory, I and many others have asked you to stop posting us. Your insults and namecalling are unwelcome and need to stop.
Jim writes on this, "I've been asked to chime in, so I'm chiming ... You know the guidelines and rules. I don't need to repeat them again and again and again. We are mostly adults here and mostly Christian conservatives ... Before you post that next profane post or personal attack just ask yourself, what would Jesus do." See https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4243242/posts
Further, Jim writes, "...if someone says STOP, then STOP! If someone asks you to take them off your ping list, then take them off! If someone asks you to stop posting to them, the adult and polite thing to do is to accommodate them." See https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4166577/posts
And of course, there is the FR homepage, "...use common courtesy when posting and refrain from posting personal attacks, profanity, vulgarity, threats, racial or religious bigotry, or any other materials offensive or otherwise inappropriate for a conservative family audience..." See https://freerepublic.com/home.htm
So, again, please respect my request, respect other Freepers, and respect Jim's rules, and please stop posting to me.
“You wish, loser. Trump will be just fine despite you closet never-Trumpers.”
You are obviously trolling as shown by disregarding half his post!
“Then she will start dropping through to the Democrat convention.”
Cool. Most people don’t know how really bad she is yet either.
p
and she has already grabbed Joe’s 90M
As Megyn Kelly said, people are open to the idea of a woman President, BUT NOT THIS NIMROD!!!
