Thinking of a Late Entry Into the 2020 Primary? Think Again.
COMMENTARY
.
By Bill Scher

Last week, the New York Times surveyed an “anxious Democratic Establishment” and found people casting about for new presidential candidates, and some prospective candidates giving a late entry into the race at least of modicum of thought.

Former Secretaries of State Hillary Clinton and John Kerry, former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, former Attorney General Eric Holder, former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick and Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio have all apparently been approached by insiders or have otherwise considered jumping in.

These musings may not be, and probably are not, very serious. But if anyone on the sidelines is truly planning a last-minute attempt to shake up the primary, they should recognize that the track record of late entrants is atrocious.

How would Brown improve their outlook? Openly, he's an exact clone of Warren, and if he didn't have to run in OH he'd be in lockstep with Sanders.

The last time the dims had a likely candidate this far to the left was in 1972, and Nixon almost ran the board.

Wealth confiscation is not a popular concept with the masses.

Watch for more panic from the donkeys trying to sneak in a "less left" alternative.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

That was then, this is now.
Times have changed.
I reckon there's a significantly large portion of the population -- 30, perhaps 35 per cent -- who are completely on-board with a candidate promising "wealth confiscation" from "the rich".

There are 40% (or more) who will vote for ANY democrat-communist candidate -- even one openly promoting socialist/communist ideologies.

If only we could be in "Nixon's America" once again.
But that's gone with the wind.
Forever.
