From the dems, yes. The Republicans are stacked with stars who would easily win if we had an even remotely honest media.

Newsome won't be the nominee, and if he somehow wins, he won't win the general.
The dems are going to pick a populist.

Why? Why are you even thinking that any poll is going to be accurate and not just propaganda at this point?

They should pick a populist if they want to have a snowballs chance but who would it be? Shapiro? Could they really tolerate a Jew in the whacko wing of the party which seem to be in control.
Newsome can be nailed to the wall just based on the **** show he's overseen in California imo. R's would
Be able to point to California and say …hey independents Is this what you really, really want for the rest of the country?

He's running. He is going all over the country. He is laying the groundwork in early caucus states already. He is trying to be the singular anti Trump voice in a crowded field. He is also trying to modify is extreme positions on gun control and trans and other culture war policies.

What do the socialists list as Newsom's greatest accomplishments in public service?

I can see pravda programming the masses that the homeless epidemic, the fire responses, the high speed rail and other wasteful expensive boondoggles, the covid tyranny, the decriminalized violence and theft, the hundreds of companies and a few million residents moving out and heading east for better regulatory and tax environments, etc. are not his fault... but what do they think he's actually accomplished for California? I can think of nothing, but we live in two completely different worlds and my anti-communist / conservative feed on my conservative X profile is obviously biased. what is pravda telling the masses Gavin has done well that indicates he'd be a good leader to carry USA away from capitalism and into their globalist communist utopia where everyone has nothing and is happy?

He wants to be perceived as being "drafted" as the anti-Trump savior of the left.

Was asking myself the same question so I tried looking up the stock ticker I remembered (YHOO). Didn't find a quote, but I did find their company webpage. Still no ticker symbol to be seen. However, I looked under their corporate job listings and found this:
Just a hunch, but I think I might know what happened here...

Assume he's running against JD Vance….what's HIS greatest accomplishment?

Trump, of course, is constitutionally prohibited from running for a third term. But Newsom (49%) leads Vice President JD Vance (41%) by 8 points as well.Quote:
First, more Americans see Trump as a "stronger leader" (44%) than Newsom (32%) largely because the number of Republicans who view the president that way (91%) is much higher than the number of Democrats who say the same about his California counterpart (66%).
you act as if the primary matters - dem elites choose their candidates. The party whose mantra is Trumpnis threat to our democracy completely ignores the vote of their subjectsWho?mikejones! said:halfastros81 said:

Aoc. Im serious. Terrible choice for general, but very strong for primary

Yahoo is liberal media, true. However the Republican Party needs to watch out to ensure that things don't go out of hand.
It is looking like a Vance vs Newsom battle in 2028.
It is way early but how the next some months go will give us more direction. I am sure all other countries are hoping for Newsom to become President so the raping of America can resume.
Newsom is a bad leader and will be a terrible President so he must not win.

A new Yahoo/YouGov poll finds that the California governor is viewed more favorably than Trump on redistricting but trails the president on leadership.Quote:
That puts Newsom slightly ahead of former Vice President Kamala Harris (19%), the party's 2024 nominee and perhaps the most familiar name on the list and well ahead of New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (12%), former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg (10%), Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (7%), Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (4%), Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (4%) and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (2%).Quote:
