    Reading lots of posts about 2024 and how to recreate the enthusiasm that Obama brought. I felt the message was first black President “Yes We Can!” really resonated with voters. When Hillary ran I kept waiting for the “First Woman President!” excitement but it was nonexistent.

    It’s occurred to me that whenever a woman has been on the ticket she’s lost. (Yes small sample size with Palin and Hillary and about to change).

    Is it actually a weakness having a woman on the ticket given that if blacks and Latinos want macho alpha male types perhaps many are secretly turned off by a woman leader? Is that crazy? If so why is there no buzz about the first female VP in US history? Why are people not as excited about a first female President vs first black President?

    They must be anticipating a fight with TrumpNews network and want a leg up on the fight of who is less fake?

    Otherwise, it makes little financial sense for them to call it for Biden first. Trump will support the oan network exclusively.

    Gotta run for office first...Dems won’t pick someone with no experience like the GOP has done.

    Would be funny to see Bezos run for Governor of Washington.

    THE ONLY TIME Faux News plays it straight is when calling Elections. I remember their "Decision Desk" calling the 2012 Election for Obama and their Pundits arguing they are wrong or too early (the Desk was right).

    FWIW, the airspace surrounding Biden’s location is now being protected the same way it would be if he were POTUS.

    The FAA has implemented the POTUS bubble (aka TFR, for those of us in the aviation community) in Wilmington, DE.

    Isn’t there at least one thread from the primaries where Bernie fans can continue their hissy fit from earlier in the year? There will be plenty of time for undermining Biden’s presidency if/when he gets elected officially.

    100% agree with Spanberger. Democrats shot themselves in the foot with messaging. The Dems basically gave the Trump campaign stupid lines to repeat over and over (and it clearly worked).

    When Richard Spencer is the voice of reason you should probably re-think some of your life decisions.

    "Defund the police" is stupidity at its finest.

    I bet "**** the Police" would've gotten more votes.

    I agree...enough with all the talk about decency, decorum, or whatever else they always spend time talking about...focus on economic policy

    ****ing Pelosi needs to just retire. All the repugs candidates everywhere have to say is that I'm going to Washington to stop the Pelosi democrats.

    wouldn’t be surprised if Pelosi thinks the huge Democratic turnout is because people were so excited for Joe Biden and the Democrats this election

    Yes, all that Cuban- and Venezuelan-Americans would LOVE to have voted for "well, Castro wasn't all bad".
