All of the people indulging in these fantasy Democratic primary scenarios think that people vote reflexively because it’s what they themselves do; they don’t realize that turnout is a product of hard work. Unseen, unheralded work. By unseen, unheralded people.
I don’t know why they think pissing off the door-knockers and canvassing power of the party will end well, but these people don’t understand what they refuse to see
Exactly - and frankly, I don't trust the political judgement of people who seems to have forgotten the primaries that happened over the first six months of this year in which over 15 million registered Democrats cast ballots. Overwhelming for Biden and Harris.
IKR? I'm sure everyone is sick of hearing this as I am of saying it, but where were the Dump Biden crowd eighteen months ago when Biden was every bit as well... old and gaffe prone as he is today? After all, in 1976 when the GOP right decided Ford couldn't win in his own right they didn't try...
... a donor/elite media palace coup after the primaries. They turned a coronation into a bare-knuckle brawl - and let's not forget that Roland Reagan came within a hair's-breadth of knocking off a sitting President.
You can make a sound case that Reagan might not have won, but he still killed the liberal wing of the GOP and we're still feeling the effects. But it was was more straightforward and honest than whatever the Dump Biden crowd are up to.
