How high will the anti-Biden vote be in the primaries?   No, it won't mean anything unless Williamson or Kennedy shock and get like over 30% in an early primary.

 

There's bound to be some protest vote again Biden and it will just be interesting to see.    In the past, strong showings by other candidates against the incumbents took caused the incumbent to not run.

Are there any recent examples at the presidential level besides 1968, and we aren't at that place right now, IMO.

 

Pat Buchanan had a strong New Hampshire showing in 92, but GHWB still easily won the nomination, even if it was apparent that he was in some trouble. But Bush not getting reelected was more due to the political skill of Clinton than anything. Does anyone think that GHWB loses to Paul Tsongas?

I liked the late Tsongas.

 

The economy while not in a techincally  recession was still perceived to be in a recession.  Any Dem candidate would've had a strong chance of winning in 92.  If Ross Perot was nutty and dropping out and back in; he actually might have won.

Democrats should just call the inflation/recession what it really is: price gouging by the wealthy and corporations. 

 

That's what it is when my rent usually increases $25/month and this year went up $200/month. It's gouging especially since it wiped out my Social Security COLA.
