    It's Joe Biden's 2020 presidential nomination to lose

    We may be several months from the first ballots being cast for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, but former Vice President Joe Biden is running away with the race. Yes, anything conceivably could happen between now and when the Democrats officially select their nominee next summer, but Biden is firmly entrenched in the catbird seat and will likely stay there barring a major turn of events.

    According to the most recent RealClearPolitics average of national surveys, Biden is leading the 20-plus candidate field by more than 16 points. Biden is also leading in the Democrats’ first four February 2020 nominating contests: Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina.

    Now, contrarians, on both the left and the right, have and will continue to argue a litany of reasons why Biden won’t win the nomination. They claim that not only is Biden a white male, but he’s also too old to be the nominee. They contend that history is against Biden given that this is his third quest for the Democrats’ highest nomination. They assert Biden is gaffe-prone and the energy and future of the party lies with the progressive wing, not with a swamp creature with a 36-year-long Senate career of appeasement to corporate interests. Or they will say that Biden is simply just the beneficiary of high name identification. They also insist it is way too early to make such a proclamation because there are still 12 sanctioned primary debates on the calendar. All of these rebuttals are wishful thinking.

    Biden is the undisputed Democratic frontrunner, period.

    It's SO early... hard to say. They're all playing nicey, nicey right now. But I think the young, radical faction of the dems are going to turn on Biden like junk yard dogs sooner or later because he's an OLD WHITE GUY, and I think his past comments and he and his son's corrupt dealings with China will bite him in the ass too.

    If I had to pick someone right now, I'd say it's a toss up between Buttplug and fuck her way to the top Harris.

    In these polls he’s tracking around 33%
    Which is great in a field of 20, but could end up being awful in a field of 5 or less.
    Biden is likely just riding a wave due to the familiarity of his name, once it starts to get to the crunch I could see his numbers slumping
    If you also agree that an animals suffering should be avoided rather than encouraged, consider what steps you can take.

    While we may laugh at what a damn joke Biden is, we also should remember that the POS obama, also a damn joke, a traitor and a total fake, was enthroned twice to fkk us over!--Tyr

    Hard to say. Fact is, most Dumbocrats are not as off the rails as the attention whore idiots we see and hear every day. I think we're hearing a lot of kiddie bullshit right now because the young-n-dumb noobs make noise with their baby rattles and attract the MSM like a moth to a flame.

    *I think* Biden would be their best choice, and would have the best chance of winning. Then again, I thought Hitlery was a shoe-in in 08 and they found something worse, so who knows?
