Desperate Dems turning to fatally flawed Elizabeth Warren
American Thinker ^ | 09/19/2019 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 09/19/2019 7:00:29 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Okay, so Joe Biden is proving such an embarrassment that he can’t be trusted to remain plausibly coherent for the 14 long moths until the election. And Kamala Harris, the Great Intersectional Hope, is so transparently phony that voters are abandoning her. Meanwhile, Bernie Sanders is no longer the anti-Hillary alternative that he was in 2016, and his cranky persona is wearing thin.

So, what’s a member of the Democrats’ gentry – the educated professional classes – to do? Steven Hayward of Powerline, a very astute observer, thinks that Elizabeth Warren is the next candidate who will take the lead.

Pollster Mark Murray points out that only 9 percent of Democrats say their mind is made up; Warren has emerged as the leading second-choice candidate if Biden stumbles, and Warren’s supporters show the highest intensity/enthusiasm level, which is always something successful campaigns build on. You can almost sense the media starting to get behind her. Biden has the look of Bob Dole in 1996: an old party warhorse that Democrats might accept, but without great enthusiasm, as this chart shows:

She’s lefty like Bernie, but with an intellectual veneer that comes with having been a tenured professor at Harvard Law School. That she snagged that prestigious job by faking Native American heritage is her first fatal flaw.  Blacks, who comprise a quarter of the Democrats’ vote in presidential elections, are simply not going to turn out for someone who appropriated victim status and the preferences that accompany it today. It’s not just an “uphill” struggle, as The Hill delicately puts it, it’s a futile struggle.

“...and then Hillary stepped in to save the day!” You know it’s out there. It’s coming as surely as dawn. She and her people know she can’t do a full campaign. But if she “steps in at the last minute...” she doesn’t have to. I’m not saying it will work but you just know it’s coming.

I keep think that perhaps the Dems have a huge plot to ALL look insane in order to grease the skids for Hillary to pop in at the last minute.

Look for an insane attempt to moderate Lieawatha for the general once she seals the nomination. This should be good.

She is their best option at this point.

She will unite the Socialist Gibmedat brigades without sowing the destructive racial division of the other candidates.

Trump is really going to skewer her with the Fake Indian thing though.

Do the dems think Warren can win because she is female, or because she is an Indian ?

The only way Hillary can do that is if she has her 'body double' stand in for her.

Hillary has brought her donors to Warden.
The CA and Chicago portion of the DNC have lost the battle.
Biden is fading and will soon be thrown under the bus.

The battle is now for VP.
I still expect Booker

It occurred to me a couple months back the Brown SHirt Media may have decided to give each of them a month or so in the “top slot” to help their “Brand” before they ever even tried to get down to eliminating any.

The Left wants to nag us to death, so the nagging schoolmarm is a perfect selection for them.

Cory Booker is going to be the nominee. He offends no one in the party and will take any position. As people drop oit they’ll move to him...Just keep making no waves and generating no buzz and it’ll be yours Cory

I assure you that each one of them is quite convinced they are completely sane, and much smarter than just about anyone else.

They don't really care who wins as long as that person allows them to continue their corrupt ways. Just that fact that there were SO MANY candidates to begin with shows that they weren't united for any one particular person.

While there could be something to this, a reminder that VOTING, PRIMARIES, and CAUCUSES are very different from polls. If Dinobernie wins IA and NH (he leads in NH), he would only have to come in second in SC and he would be on track to have a good delegate lead.

It’s all about delegates, and part of this strategy is what Trump showed in 2016: you have to win the states you should win, but you have to be able to come in SECOND everywhere else. I think Dinobernie can do that like no other candidate on their side.

I have posted that Joe Biden was toast long before he ever announced he would run to become POTUS. IMHO....and I know him for many, many years and he sure is not the brightest bulb in the room...in fact he is not a light bulb at all. Any American voter that casts a vote for this poor excuse of an effective, functioning politician is either sniffing too much reefer or, drinking too much booze...period. could be insane...too!!!

As for Democrat, Madame, Elizabeth Warren...this twisted nutcase female is the joke of the century. Vote for either Biden or Warren and you can kiss the American Republic goodbye forever. When the American people and voters get serious next year and center in on these Democrat losers and deadbeat America haters and America destroyers.....Biden & Warren will be sitting comfortably in the nearest garbage can...right where they so rightly belong!!!

I’d not cross Biden out yet. There’s till SC with its huge black vote, then CA with its blacks and Hispanics. I’m still buying popcorn.

His boyfriend probably agrees.
