@LeopoldBloom Bruh, don't even joke about that, you know how much I would love to have Mike Pillow in the White House?

@BohemianBoo I was disappointed that he didn't get the RNC chairman spot.

@LeopoldBloom Not making it up.
Dems prop up Harris, Clinton for 2024 if Biden doesn’t run: Poll
Polling has shown that Democratic voters are tepid in their support of Biden, with many preferring another candidate to be the party’s nominee in 2024.

@IM5688 It's a story in the right-wing site The Hill about a poll by some fringe polling organization called "Premise," that polled 2000 people and came up with support for Clinton. We don't know how they selected or weighted their respondents. So it's meaningless.
Clinton lost to Donald freaking Trump. Her career in politics is over. The Democratic establishment isn't dominated by the Clinton machine anymore; it's dominated by the Obama/Biden machine. She's also not making any overtures toward a 2024 campaign, not hiring consultants, no fundraising, nothing.
She's not going to be Harris' VP either. First, Biden is giving every indication that he plans to run again, and if he does, he will be the presumptive nominee. Harris isn't going to run against him, and if she did, she'd probably do even worse than she did in 2020.
If you are interested in this stuff, you need to follow the people who actually know what they're talking about, and not glom onto some weird poll just because it reinforces your existing beliefs.

@LeopoldBloom Agreed. A poll of some randos on AOL of all places does not mean the Dems are considering this.

@SumKindaMunster I will ask the folks at electoral-vote.com what their assessment is of this polling organization.

@SumKindaMunster Here is their response from today's posting.
L.B. in Savannah, GA, asks: The Hill (a moderate right-wing source) reported a poll of 2,194 people by an organization called "Premise," that found in a Democratic field without Biden, VP Harris has 32% support while Hillary Clinton has 20%. I've never heard of Premise. The article doesn't say who commissioned the poll or how the respondents were weighted (things I've learned are important from you guys!). So is this legitimate? Does Clinton really have more support than Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) or Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg?
(V) & (Z) answer: Premise is not a political pollster, they are primarily a marketing firm looking for some cheap PR. So, that's a red flag right there.
Beyond that, we are at the point in the cycle that many poll respondents don't really know the non-famous candidates. And if you exclude Joe Biden, then it's not surprising that a fair bit of his support migrates to another moderate, longtime-Democratic-establishment-type candidate. We don't think Clinton's result means much of anything, or that she's a more viable candidate than Buttigieg or Newsom.
