The problem with Williamson is that more Republicans are excited about her and want her to do well than Democrats. She has yet to exceed one percent in any of the qualifying polls for the next debate in September. She needs to hit 2 percent in four qualifying polls in just the next two weeks to make the debate. Extremely doubtful this happens. So far, not many Democrats anywhere have been willing to turn out for her. Democrats tend to support candidates they think have the best chance of beating Trump. Republicans get excited about fringe Democrats that really have no shot against Trump because it’s fun to try to splinter Democrats and prevent, for as long as possible, the Party from coalescing around one strong candidate.
There is nothing in this analysis that is not well-founded or reasonable. I agree, I have heard some conservatives get really excited about the Dems putting up a fluff head with no shot.
The problem is, nobody is getting ahead already, and most dems, even, see the extreme bunch as a fluff heads with no shot. I think the "social democrats" or "justice democrats", which includes Bernie and maybe even Warren, have extreme funding right now. Even Biden is playing to that market in this phase of the campaign, though I'd expect him to play more centrist in the "real election".
There is a strategy being worked on within the Dem party..... the social dems are trying to do about a dozen AOCs in the primaries, running out moderate dems in places where Rs can hardly compete with anyone. I dunno, it might cost the dems a few of their base "secure" house seats.
Maryann Williamson is about the only one in sight who can get support from moderates or Republicans. The Brietbart crew might pray for her to be a darkhorse contender with a bounce to make it to October, but it's not a sure bet, to say the least.
Pretty sure Biden has had the nod from the old guard dems....but I think they need to find a moderate. That's why I posted something about Dershowitz a week or so ago, but with Dershowitz being outed as an Epstein associate, that is absolutely out the window now. If Trump were having Epstein outed in his first Primary run, he woulda been sunk as well. Probably, I'll have to concede to Colton's view on Trump.....
