Hillary reportedly not ruling out 2020 presidential run

Posted by William A. Jacobson on January 27, 2019 50 Comments

Hillary is like an angry cat lying in wait. Still furious that Orange Man Bad defeated her in 2016, and that Democrats of lesser worth (in her mind) are lining up to challenge Trump in 2020, she waits, still thinking of herself as the "real president."

Former Republican and former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg is likely to run for president as a Democrat in 2020. Being a wealthy, white male puts him at an automatic disadvantage in this contest, but he has a plan to compensate for his privilege.

SNL compares Elizabeth Warren to a Prostate Exam: “So bend over America, and let Mama Warren get to work”

Posted by William A. Jacobson on January 21, 2019 10 Comments

Saturday Night Live hasn't been funny for decades, but it still can set a narrative on a political candidate. Perhaps the most infamous example was the statement by Tina Fey playing Sarah Palin that "I can see Russia from my house." Palin never actually said that, but the statement became urban legend, with Palin being mocked relentlessly for years for supposedly making the statement.

First Ad from ‘Draft Beto’ is as Empty as the Man Himself

Beto O'Rourke hasn't announced his candidacy for 2020 yet, but the folks at 'Draft Beto' have already released an ad, which I guess is supposed to get people excited for his inevitable run. The ad is just like Beto, all style and no substance. It's set to the classic song 'Baba O'Riley' by The Who, which will leave anyone under the age of 40 asking: Who?

Bernie Sanders Adds More Staff, Hinting at a 2020 Run

Posted by Mary Chastain on January 14, 2019 12 Comments

We all know how the DNC screwed over Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) in 2016 in favor of failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. Now it looks like Sanders may run in 2020 after he added to his staff "the digital alumni who were key to his surprise performance in 2016" along with "the media production company that helped launch Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to prominence."

Posted by Mike LaChance on January 12, 2019 27 Comments

As more Democrats declare their intention to run for president in 2020, they will be under increased pressure to distinguish themselves from the rest of the crowd. One of the ways this is already unfolding is a competition to be the person who wants to raise taxes the highest on high earners.

Dem Rep. Tulsi Gabbard is running for president, and that’s important (really, it is)

Liberals demand you STOP talking about ELIZABETH WARREN’s LIKABILITY or comparing her to HILLARY

Posted by William A. Jacobson on January 06, 2019 32 Comments

Likability as a political asset for a candidate is a "you know it when you see it" quality. It's not the same thing as "approval" or "favorability" or whether you actually "like" the candidate. And it's something that can't be taught or learned.

First voter question to Elizabeth Warren in Sioux City: “Why did you undergo the DNA testing?”

Posted by William A. Jacobson on January 05, 2019 28 Comments

I wrote recently that Elizabeth Warren's presidential campaign already has been defined by her Native American problem much as emails defined Hillary. Trump has switched, at least temporarily, from calling her "Pocahontas" to mock her false claim to be Native American to mocking the DNA test results that showed Warren may only be 1/1024th Native American (by DNA, which is not how real Native Americans determine whether someone is a tribal member).

Elizabeth Warren campaign defined by her Native American problem much as emails defined Hillary

We are over a year away from the Iowa Democratic Caucuses, and 22 months away from Election Day 2020. But already a pall has been cast on the narrative of Elizabeth Warren's campaign due to her Native American deception which was first exposed in late April 2012.
