Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumWhen do the Pence match-up polls begin? And how will this affect Biden?
Should folks start factoring that in? Will there be a Trumpian war on Biden? Will Pence be Trump's avenger? I guess that will go for any democrat.
Is anyone else feeling a little sick about all this? The vibrational noise is louder than ever!

(2,461 posts)Who are these 5-10% dems who don't vote for any of the dem candidates?
Happy to see both Bernie and Joe dominating the independents - although could be that lots of independents aren't as involved as of yet? name recognition? Guessing here.

So sad the climate conference at the UN was so over shadowed. And gun reform.
But I do think that this is inevitable. Just not so sure that the outcome will be peaceful

(25,183 posts)he'd look almost like a normal person. But, I don't expect him to waltz to the GOP nomination if Trump goes down. He has his own potential problems with Ukraine.

(25,183 posts)He would appear "moderate" after three years, give or take, of Trump. He's much better at hiding his true agenda than Trump ever could be. Also remember, PA has elected Bob Casey statewide how many times?

(12,410 posts)But i'd put that chance at about 5%.
I dont doubt he could be impeached. But i have great doubts of a conviction. But at least he'd carry that stain with him forever.

(25,183 posts)If it looks like Trump is going down, I fully expect a challenge for the nomination from Mitt Romney. He didn't get elected to the Senate from Utah just to experience the D.C. winter. He's learned from The Godfather, "keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer." I saw him make negative noises about Trump at The Atlantic Festival. And the Salt Lake Tribune is happy to report it:

Weld and Sanford probably think their star is rising, but they will be swept away by Mittens if Trump is truly toast. Remember, Bobby Kennedy didn't announce his campaign until after LBJ dropped out about April first of 1968, so there's plenty of time to mount a campaign for the GOP nomination, if it looks like Trump isn't going to get the nod.

(25,183 posts)between the country-clubber Republicons and the fundies, who adore Pence. The infighting in the GOP would be delightful to watch.
I'm not saying that Mittens would get the nomination, just that he intends to try if he sees an opening. Nixon lost in 1960, and came roaring back eight years later, surely that's encouraging to Romney.

(13,649 posts)swearing up and down he wouldnt be impeached. And look where we are now.
Im just saying, anything is possible. If pro-impeachment/conviction polls show 60%+, we might get a conviction in the Senate. Unlikely but possible.
