    Probably so, but it's worth noting that Biden and Sanders, the two leading candidates per the polls, both have material strengths they can play to in those states, despite that they arguably represent the center-most and left-most wings of the current Democratic Party.

        Yeah, that's surprising given that O'Rourke has not really been showing all that well against the Democratic field. I'm disappointed that the polls aren't showing better for the women in the race, to the extent they're even being considered. I think Warren, Harris, Klobuchar, Gillibrand and Gabbard all deserve closer consideration from the voters.

          Tulsi Gabbard is going to surge. She just got a massive endorsement. Joe Rogan is a problematic figure for many reasons, but you can't deny his reach. Largest podcast there is, I think.
          Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."

                  OR Trump's supporters wake up to what a liar and jackass he is.

                    By any polling other than Rasumussen, Trump's "supporters" shouldn't be enough to carry him to victory. He'll also need some critics to prefer him over the Democratic alternatives. I'll grant to onejayhawk that a strong economy (or one perceived as strong) could help Trump in that regard, but it's way too early to make any presumptions about how voters will view the strength of the economy in November 2020.

                      Don't forget that Ted Cruz hasn't ruled out a primary challenge yet. Can Trump topple Goliath again?!?

                            I have not checked Rasmussen specifically, but Trump's support gets stronger the more likely the pollee is to vote, ie LV > RV > Adult. Trump won against a fantastically well financed opponent as an outsider. He will not do worse as an incumbent and having superior financing.

                            Regardless, there is a counter-offensive coming. Flood's letter to Barr is just the opening salvo.
                            The White House accused special counsel Robert Mueller’s team of playing politics with the investigation. Read the letter:

                              If Cruz runs against Trump, that will prove the man has no soul. (and I'm an atheist).
