Why is Ron DeSantis slipping in the polls?

( :

For about a quarter century, Republicans used to lament that they needed to find another Ronald Reagan.

Now they barely mention Reagan Republicanism anymore, and have gone full blown White Christian Nationalist.

If they had another RR, he would have been labeled a RINO and mocked and scorned and hated on RW media.

Howard Dean would make a great president. I was never for him before but have listened to him a number of times since and he is about the most level headed and intelligent leader out there.

Which explains why the DNC dumped him so quickly. LOL

 

[Port Tack]

Well, true, but remember Meatball Ron mostly killed elderly Republicans and dumbasses.

DeSantis is an autocrat like Trump, but he's still a long second place to Trump.

He is a racist bigot like trump who fantasizes about being a dictator.

The DNC did not dump him, voters did.

A guy who hasn't even declared himself for the race is 'slipping' in the polls months before the first vote will be tallied and people are declaring the race now over and Trump's victory fait accompli?

One might think there are a lot of newcomers to politics who aren't aware that history is replete with early front runners not winning the nomination.

This is the trump party now


Old numbers mean nothing now

Casey would keep him straight*.


*no pun intended.

Democratic voters since I had ZERO say in whom the Democrats selected as their nominee.

In 2004 I was still voting Republican so I voted for GW even though the previous year's invasion of Iraq was disturbing.

Liz Cheny is old school Republican...and there's only about 3 or less left in Congress. I'd vote for her over Nikki.

I think there are more than 3, they just keep their mouths shut in hopes that common sense returns to their party before they are shitcanned.

it is funny, he won a primary and said we are moving to the next one 'Yee haa, And that was so bad, that it ended his run.

He was attacked by the whole media and called crazy for merely cheering on his troops with a sore voice


It was a media hit


The media is corporate

He was scaring the shit out if the corporations


Howard Dean would make a great president

It doesn't seem that way to me, but time will tell. Like Democratic voters dumping Dean, I think the current climate in the RNC would dump Cheney.

The "Lefty" media. LOL

Yes, I'll agree that a bunch of Big Blue City liberals put an end to Howard Dean's "a little too country" Presidential campaign.

Agreed


CNN kept claiming it was proof he was insane

It was a blatant media hit job


Then that same media refused to flat out state that trump was lying repeatedly

Corporate media

Neither did I since I've never been a registered anything, don't vote in primaries.

Liberals don't like cowboys. They only like city boys in politics.
