The 2024 Presidential Election I confess, I’m a political junkie. I read polls, I read commentary on polls, and I enjoy the horse race. I watch election returns and I make it my business to understand how elections are supposed to be run. My first vote for President was cast for George McGovern, and my politics have not changed since then. For those of you are too young to remember McGovern, he was the Democratic Party’s nominee for President in 1972. Most of the country found this left-wing Senator from South Dakota to be an extreme liberal, but I liked him fine. He lost in a landslide to Richard Nixon. Today he would be compared to Joe Manchin, perhaps slightly to Manchin’s right.
Thanks Bill for beautifully stating exactly where I am in this insanity. Also, a Libertarian who tires of being told I’m selfish and have no ideaology... I have sent small donations to RFK, Tim Scott and Ramaswami although sadly I already suspect none of them has a chance in Hell. If it’s Biden and Trump, I will vote for Trump simply because voting for Biden who will win is pretty much like signing your own death certificate... today’s “ Rabbit Hole” is about a possible cyber attack before the election necessitating satellite cell phones for our elected officials.... I would scoff at this wild idea if it were not for the “Pandemic” necessitating changes in voting procedures for the 2020 Election... it’s all so depressing, I can’t even make “popcorn” jokes anymore... the shit show is about to start and I can say with certainty it’s going to get shittier than ever.
Although I never voted for a Democratic president, I was a registered Dem until two years ago. Now I am registered Republican and, as things stand at this moment, I'd vote for RFK Jr..
I voted twice for Trump and I do not regret it. However, his temper and his need to opine on EVERY subject has worn me down. His attacks on DeSantis are ridiculous and self-defeating. My wife, a lifelong Republican, says she will never consider voting for Trump again.
If Senator Cruz ran for the office, I'd vote for him. Obviously, if Rand Paul ran again I'd support him.
Besides Joe Manchin, I can't think of a high profile Democrat that any Republican would not hate.
While this is wandering far from the subject, I consulted the I CHING twice regarding #FJB. In 2001, the oracle told me he would not last through his 2021 - 2024 reign of terror. Last month, I asked more specifically and was ultimately referred to Revelations 13 and the possibility that the Big Guy will be gone by the end of June, 2024.
From day 1, my life has been unusual. Born running (breech, one leg first, they had to shove it back in to get them both to go together). Understandably, Mom and I never did get along so great, after that. They called me artistic, or maybe it was autistic and I just misheard. Last year I joined the Libertarian party, because I just wanted to be left alone. So far so good. No cellphone, no credit cards. Old car. My gun is a turn of the (previous) century trombone. Gotta get away from the vaxxed crazies, this people in my town have their hands on their ears, singing humm humm humm. They do not understand why I glare at them and will not wish them good day. It is because they are dying fast and do not know it.

I always enjoy your analyses.
