Democrats Suddenly Have Renewed Faith Biden Can Win In '24
2022-11-26
[WIRE] What a difference a few weeks make.

President Joe Biden’s approval rating has been wavering in the high 30s and low 40s, with even Democrats saying they weren’t sure they’d support him again should he choose to run in 2024.

But all that changed after Democrats performed far better than expected in the midterm elections. While they lost the House, there was no Red Wave. And Democrats held onto control of the Senate, where some pollsters were predicting they could have lost up to seven seats.

Now, almost three in four Democrats (71%) say Biden could win if he runs for another White House term in 2024, according to a USA Today-Ipsos poll. That’s an 11-point jump from August.
The attention span of gnats
Half of the Democratic voters surveyed in the latest poll believe Biden "should be the nominee and deserves reelection." That’s up six points from August.

The poll, released Sunday, indicated overall that Democrats are feeling better about Biden after Democrats pulled off surprising wins in key races nationwide, fending off Trump-backed candidates in high-profile contests in Pennsylvania, Nevada, and Arizona.

"The USA Today-Ipsos poll found that voters’ perception that Biden can win in 2024 jumped notably among women (55 percent in August to 71 percent in November) and among voters aged 18-34 (53 percent in August to 69 percent in November)," The Hill reported.

That’s a big change from July, when a CNN poll found 75% of Democratic and Democratic-leaning voters want the party to nominate someone other than Biden.

#9  #2 If DeSantis is the nominee and Trump decides to go independent We may have a Ross Pero situation where the conservative vote is split and Biden wins.

The Clinton's designed the Perot tactic and employed it effectively twice. It will work again...

#6  Factor in the announcement that Gov Hairdoo is out for 2024 with a seemingly definitive statement and you have to wonder if the blocks are falling in place for the Political Theater mask of the voter-fraud in 2024. The question is who, because Jojo is about played out. Big Mike, the Cackle-Jackal after a pre-frontal lobotomy, Pretty Pete, or my guess for a new dark-horse candidate, Susan Rice?

#5  #2 Yes, that is the reality based scenario. The simulation scenario ( in which we currently find ourselvles) has already been coded and the winner decided. All that remains is to plug in that one variable asset that will be the loser.

#4  The fight for 2024 will be through control of the voter rolls.

#3  Fair to say under the current system they can elect anyone or anything.

#1  Of course they are confident. They do not even have to campaign to win.
