Wow. You beat Chis to it!! Congrats!
Definitely Vance for the GOP.
Dems are a little harder to predict.
I'd say Andy Beshear. Dem governor in a state where Trump won handily.
Others - Roy Cooper, Pritzker, Whitmer, Booker, Warner.
Gavin Newsome will be pushed hard, despite how things go in California.
Book it, mark it down. Don Jr. for the Republicans. Note it now.
He will be the candidate and president in name only. Trump will run the show. At the rallies Don Jr. will talk for 5 minutes and his dad will talk for an hour and a half.

Well he's guaranteed to lose.
I keep saying it, but they don't listen. Dems from CA, NY, and MA can't win national elections.
The good news for Democrats is that there will be no "presumptive" nominee; it will be an open primary. The Democrats usually come up with a better candidate when it's wide open than when there is an "heir apparent."
The other good news is that the GOP will almost certainly nominate Vance, and he will be a weak candidate incapable of getting the kind of enthusiasm that Trump has had these last eight years.

I had zero interest in posting anything about this. Congrats not correct once again.
Your record is your record. I didn't really consider how despondent you would be. That's my fault.

This is my projected dem primary slate - and it is stacked:
I assume this is the GOP slate:
- Beshear
- Shapiro
- Whitmer
- Booker
- Buttigieg
- Newsome (please God no…he can’t win the general election)
I assume this is the GOP slate:
- Vance
- Haley
- Desantis
- Donald Trump Jr.
Why do you and others think Trump is really just gonna go away? I would be happy as hell if he actually did that. He won't.
Don Jr. is the nominee. Either that or maybe Ivanka. I don't think she's interested.
Uhh Vance is super liked and respected.. his Rogan podcast episode did 8x what John Fetterman did for comparison sake. The left doesn't have any major players on their bench atm.
Because Dems from places like CA only know how to beat other Dems. They win the primary and they've won the election. They've never had to compete in a place where there is any freaking chance that the Republican might win the election. They don't know how to talk to undecided middle of the road people. They just know how to talk to hardcore liberals.
On top of that, California has been declining by several metrics. They will attack him on his record in California and it will stick.
Only way he doesn't lose is if the economy crashes or inflation takes off again. But in that situation any dem could win.
Also Newsome's comes off as a used car salesman trying to sell you a lemon.

Will the Democrats push for this or wait until 2029?
WASHINGTON, D.C. — On Tuesday, May 16, a group of U.S. Senate and House Democrats reintroduced the Judiciary Act of 2023, a bill that would add four seats to the U.S. Supreme Court, bringing the bench from nine to 13 justices. The bill was introduced by Sens. Ed Markey (D-Mass.), Tina Smith (D-Minn.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Reps. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.), Hank Johnson (D-Ga.), Cori Bush (D-Mo.) and Adam Schiff (D-Calif.). The Judiciary Act was first introduced in 2021; a press release cites the growing support for court expansion in the intervening two years.
While the Supreme Court was established by Article III of the U.S. Constitution, the size, structure and functioning of the Court was left to Congress to outline in a series of Judiciary Acts. Throughout U.S. history, there have been seven changes to the number of justices sitting on the Supreme Court, the last of which settled at nine justices in 1869 to reflect the nine circuit courts at the time. (There are now thirteen federal circuit courts.)
Today, the argument for an expanded Court has reemerged. “Republicans have hijacked the confirmation process and stolen the Supreme Court majority—all to appeal to far-right judicial activists who for years have wanted to wield the gavel to roll back fundamental rights,” Markey said in a press release. “Each scandal uncovered, each norm broken, each precedent-shattering ruling delivered is a reminder that we must restore justice and balance to the rogue, radical Supreme Court. It is time we expand the Court.”
