if you don't think Charisma generates 6-10 pts of extra votes - I can't help you.
Why would a 60 year old Biden be hugely more attractive to voters - would he be more substantive - no?
The superficial is what plebs cling to

@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

60 year old biden couldnt win 5% of the Democratic primary

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

you have to stop looking from the lens of 20 yrs ago,
IF he had the same backing as today and name recognition. YOu don't think a bulk of his votes comes from obama no 2.

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

Your intuitive sense is beyond limited

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

74% of canvassed voters prefer another candidate - that should tell you a lot

@johnserwach @plutus @ForeignSubstance

75% of democrats in a gop push poll say they will vote for biden in the primary

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach

He wins the primary easy. If you want another candidate run another candidate. They wont win

Could Democrats Get Another Shot at Redistricting in New York?

State courts that struck down Democrats’ gerrymandered maps a year ago are poised to decide a renewed legal contest over whether to grant them another chance.

Ranked-choice voting is an elections-administration nightmare

RCV leads to long voting lines, delayed results, and inevitable tabulation mistakes. And once those tabulation mistakes are made, RCV inherently makes it more difficult to detect and fix them.

I trust Yuki's judgement before...

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @plutus

Yuki can have outstanding judgment and Joe Biden can be wildly popular- both can be true 😂

@johnserwach @rubecube12 @plutus On my earphones while I was abusing some golf balls at the 練習場. (I abused some of them very nicely. Others got waterboarded.) 😂

@johnserwach @plutus @rubecube12 This is really NHK provincialism. What you can't see is some inside-culture stuff that no tourist would ever see, and few if any outsiders who consider themselves Japan experts would ever know.
