I mean, look. I was on both of Bernie's campaigns. I put in thousands of calls for the guy. But brother, Its a pipe dream. Bernie polls 20-25 points ahead of both Trump and Biden. It wouldn't be a W, it would be a Blue version of this map. Bernie would CRUSH Trump.

But its not going to happen. The DNC would rather lose to Trump than ever consider a genuine socialist. I would LOVE to be wrong on this, but its not going to happen.

Honestly, we could probably get Katie Porter through the wickets. We could probably get Gretchen Witmer through. I think we could get Inslee in. I'd put each of these at less that 20% stand alone probability.

Honestly, the best bet, the one I think has both the highest probability of getting the nom, and can actually win:

Andy Beshear

He's a somewhat progressive southern > two term < Democratic governor.

He's won Kentucky. Twice. Hes "a bit" progressive, but not a Bernie or a Ro Khanna.

You know who else was a two term, southern, slightly progressive governor?

Bill Clinton.

I'll bet Bernie with my heart. I bet its going to be Andy Beshear with my wallet.
