Why the fuck is Chris Cuomo talking abou "tightening poll numbers" on CNN right now?

That is all I heard before changing the channel. I have herard NOTHING anywhere else about polls that are changing in Pussy-Grabber's favor. . . . Is this just a case of woe, doom and panic? I don't have a link, as I only just heard him say it. . . .

It makes sense because many of the experts are calling this the most stable presidential race in history

We were all bumming tonight at cocktail hour. But perhaps not letting our guard down is a good thing.

His brother will be able to run in 24. If Biden wins his brother won’t be able to run until at least 28, possibly longer or never.

And even if he doesn’t, Harris will be the presumptive nominee.

I am assuming you are just accidentally using wrong terminology. As being the presumptive nominee means that there has been primaries and caucuses and a person has won enough delegates to become the presumptive nominee before it becoming official at the convention.

I think that you meant she would be the front runner which as VP she definitely would be, but there would be a dozen more Democrats fighting for the nomination.

and anyone running against them would be not seen in a good light. Running against Al Gore killed Bill Bradley’s political career.

You are using presumptive wrong...Anyway, tell that to Biden ‘16, Cheney ‘08(yeah, I know they weren’t even running....but hell even Bush ‘88 had to fight in the Republican primary even though he was the “front runner” not “presumptive”....and if you go back over just the last 100 years to 1920 which would be 25 elections, the sitting VP only ran in 3 of those elections....’60 Nixon, ‘88 Bush, and ‘00 Gore....but I guess that is almost always...

I can go back further to find always?

The point is it’s easier for Gov. Cuomo to run in 24 if Trump wins this year.

I gave up on Cuomo when he embraced the darkness of bothsiderism. I think the virus messed up his noodle.

They only give a fuck about ratings and revenue. They are worse then Faux...at least with t hat shitshow they admit they are conservative amplifiers.

C(o)NN lives the '2 believable sides to every story lie' , in fact propogates it to pretend to be middle of the road and caring about it's viewers.

Bullshit. C(o)NN cares as much about it's viewers then Trump does about his white racist base.

I stopped watching them in 2004 - this has been going on since Ted Turner had to sell it.

And after Pussy-Grabber's fiasco with the military comments, I certainly do NOT see him gaining anywhere!
