George McGovern. Jesse Jackson.

The Democratic left loves a loser.

Always has.

Still does.

Sometimes, some of them know their preferred candidate can't win, but they don't care.

Not if it helps permanently move the party toward the left.

And that is their perverse thinking: nothing will persuade the Democrats to permanently shift left like nominating a leftish sort of guy and watching him and the party's down-ticket candidates, too, get crushed in a devastating Republican landslide, as happened in 1972 when Nixon buried McGovern more deeply than anyone ever before in American political history.

Right now, the Democratic left pretty much prefers any loser on their love list to the one Democrat most likely to deny Bozo a second term.

Who said the Republicans are the stupid party?

Jill Biden: "You may like another candidate better, but you have to look at who is going to win"

Jill Biden laid out the political calculus of her husband’s presidential campaign in extraordinarily blunt terms on Monday, directly acknowledging that some voters may prefer other candidates but urging them to support Joseph R. Biden Jr. anyway, in an effort to defeat President Trump.

As Mr. Biden, the early poll leader, works — and sometimes struggles — to excite a Democratic base that has moved left since he last ran for office, Dr. Biden, campaigning in New Hampshire, called on Democrats to prioritize perceived electability over enthusiasm for individual contenders or their policies.

“You may like another candidate better, but you have to look at who is going to win,” she said, addressing a gathering of educators.
