Kamala Harris......... while not aggressively ideological, have no strong connection to the Clinton-Obama centrist tradition. Huh? The woman is a Marxist. That's not "aggressively ideological" ???

I do not believe that “moderate/centrist Democrats know that their party is now full on Socialist/Communist, nor are they likely to awake to that fact in 2018 or even 2020. None of this will end well for the nation.

“I could easily somebody like Kasich attempt to start a movement with Republican ‘Never Trumpers’ and more Centrist Democrats.”
If he tries it as a Democrat, he’ll be laughed at. If he tries Third Party, he’ll pull mainly Democrats for two reasons: The first being that the Democrats are so far left now that at least half of their voters don’t even recognize them, and the second being that the Trump supporters are rock-solid behind Trump - they’re not about to jump to someone like Kasich.
End result: Trump gets 45%, Cortez (or whoever they run) gets 35%, and Kasich gets the other 20%. A blowout for Trump.

DNC chair Tom Perez has already called an in your face Communist from the Bronx the Future of the Dem Party.
Ocasio-Cortez is today’s Centrist Democrat.

There are no “centrist” Demonicrats. They are all lying murdering traitors.
To: Libloather
Don't laugh, but a dark horse centrist candidate could be Governor Hickenlooper of Colorado. He also has the virtue of not being over 70.
That said, I don't see any centrist getting the nomination. The only real question is how crazy left do they go.
To: Libloather
How about in their graves? Works for me!

LOL! Clinton & Obama are centrists. This is a battle between the old school masked socialists and the new unmasked socialists.
Bingo! a Winner!

No laugh. I think it will be Hickenblooper and maybe Kamala harris. Bland sounding white socialist lite and covert communist “person of color”.

To Trump.
In shocking numbers.
This is of course the correct answer.
Because there really are or were plenty of "centrist" Democrats. They are just not very loud compared to the others.
In 2016 they held their noses and voted for Hillary because Trump is Hitler (they thought).
All Trump has to do to win them over is continue not being Hitler for another two years.
Don't want to be overconfident, but I expect a landslide next time.

The Marxists have spent a while purging “moderates” from the party. Moderate Dems may decide to either stay home or #WalkAway. Unfortunately, many will vote for the Marxists.

They purged the Scoop Jackson Democrats a long time ago, they moved to the GOP and became the Neo-Cons.

Hickenlooper stoop up to the craziest anti-oil people here. They won’t forget that.
