RE: So the Dems new hope is Oprah Winfrey......
about 2 months ago I was talking to 3 intensely partisan Democrats. They were spitballing possible names that could go up against Trump in 2020. They agreed amongst themselves that Eliz. Warren and Kamala Harris would, if nominated, suffer the Dems’ worst loss since Dukakis and maybe worse than him. These folks know that I was not With Her but asked my opinion anyway. I said Oprah was the Dems’ best hope. I still think so.
Which is not to say that she would actually win the election. But I think she would run stronger, nationwide, than any of the D’s usual suspects.
Interesting times that we live in.

I agree.
I think Oprah would have a shot. She is intelligent and a very successful business woman. The issue she may have is debating. But who knows she may do that well.

Oprah would have surround herself with people who could help navigate her through policy and political discourse and positions. Her problem is that those people on the democratic side that could help her are likely going to be under FBI investigation or indicted by that point.
And isnt it rich that the libturds, who complained about Trum pbeing a reality tv star running for president, is now pimping their own reality tv star for president.

The chances that the democratic nominee is not black are about zero.

The woman is no idiot, she is both the "anti-trump" and "anti-establishment" at the same time. She could do well in a general election against Trump.

Well, she can apparently give a great speech. Dems have shown that's all she really needs to be able to do.

RE: So the Dems new hope is Oprah Winfrey......
Kind of a sad commentary that in this country, right now, virtually everyone that is a politician that has "come up through the ranks", is viewed as tainted and "bought off". IMO, most are. So that today, nationally, only a celebrity is viewed as electable........
We gnash our collective teeth at the stupidity of the Hollywood celebrity class, yet view the "most likely hopes" on either side as coming from that world. Kardashian America is upon us.......

That does not make her "establishment" it makes her a politically active donor. She can come off as being an outside the beltway person, a well like TV personality, an entrepreneur, and the anti-trump.
It would be foolish to laugh all that off.

She's no Trump. Trump was anti-establishment. When Trump went to SC, he blasted the Bush's ahead of the primaries. He blasted john McCain.
Let me see Oprah blast Obama & the Clintons when she campaigns in Illinois, New York, and California, and maybe I'll believe she has an anti-establishment bone in her body. Until then, she is a pro-establishment hack.

Probably won't happen. She won't have the stomach for the fight. That is not a fat pun, either.
