I dont think Joe should run again, as I have said that here prior to the holidays so I would be part of the 70%, but I will still vote for him. It really doesnt matter what people will say in those polls as it is actually a binary choice i.e. between himself and Trump.
It could be an indicator that third party candidates will have a significant impact on the election. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen that, back in 1992 when Ross Perot captured 19% of the vote. Could RFK Jr do better than that? If so, it’s not exactly a binary dynamic.
Personally I think he is at his height in the polls as many just dont know much about him bc he hasn't been on a debate stage and the opinions/policies that are known about him are widely marginalized by one side or the other. Many people are fairly popular in politics until they start taking sides on the issues. lol.
And not mocking the man, but his voice issues make him very difficult to want to listen to what he has to say. I am not saying his speech is the equivalent of nails on a blackboard, but not too far off. lol.
Let's be honest about this. Looks, style, personality, height, or lack thereof, etc and any issues like his verbal malady factor into voters minds, even if it's subconsciously.
I don’t think he’s peaked. His RCP average is at 13.3% and rising, and the presumptive Dem and GOP nominees poll as the most unpopular candidates ever nominated.
Yes RFK jr. has not been on the debate stage because biden is afraid to debate him. Actually it would be perhaps more correct to say biden’s handlers are shit scared to let him debate RFK jr. yeah you know he may go off and start talking how is a tough guy be beat up corn pop, or that he graduated in the top of his law school class (76 out of 85 and got caught plagiarizing) or perhaps he will tell about his days driving an 18 wheeler or perhaps he will want to take RFK jr. behind the gym and beat the hell out of him too……….. and so on……….
Regarding RFK jr. voice
You said you are not mocking the man then you go on to say, and I quote you…
“I am not saying his speech is the equivalent of nails on a blackboard, but not too far off. lol.” and you (“lol”) laugh at him and his voice issue.
And that soy-boy bobby earns you low life scum of the earth status.
I dont have a rep here for mocking people for things they can't control and you know that. But his voice is very annoying to listen to. His most ardent supporters would tell you the same thing.
There is no need for you to be dishonest
Those are your words I’ll again quote YOU bobby boy…
…“I am not saying his speech is the equivalent of nails on a blackboard, but not too far off. lol.”
That is MOCKING him for his voice.
And you then double down on mocking his voice by saying “But his voice is very annoying to listen to.”
That is MOCKING him for his voice.
Saying
“His most ardent supporters would tell you the same thing.”
Does not mitigate the fact that you MOCKED him, twice.
To quote you again
“I dont have a rep here for mocking people for things they can't control”
You Do Now, because you did it, twice, you cannot weasel or lie your way out of it. you said it.
BTW since you are very sensitive just so you know my use of upper case (in a few words) is for effect, I’m NOT shouting at you, I know you are an insecure beta, so don’t all upset and cry.
In the Feb 21 Quinnipiac national poll, Biden polls just under a majority (49%) in a head to head against Trump. Adding the third party candidates into the mix, Kennedy pulls 15% and Biden doesn’t crack 40 (38%).
In the statewide polls released today (MI, NC, GA) Trump is leading in every head to head, but his lead expands over Biden when voters are given the option to choose Kennedy, West or Stein.
I saw a headline that RFKjr might seek the Libertarian Party nomination. He would do that to more easily get on the ballot in all 50 states, as the Libertarian Party has been doing that more or less successfully for several decades.
.
Of course he'd have to get the nomination, not really being a libertarian. Libertarian party members tend to be ideologically "pure" so it is not certain they'd go for RFKjr, even though it would probably boost their vote total in the election to a record high.
.
That said, whatever RFKjr peaks at in the polls, it is almost certain that it will deflate a bit by election day. That's the historical trend.
is overly simplistic. It's less a question of his physical age than of his competence at any particular age. There are men all over the country who are years older than Joe, and in positions of power who show complete lucidity and competence when interviewed or speaking publicly..
