To be fair, its not necessarily about finding a black candidate but one folks agree with, trust, and trust white folks to vote for.

Bloomberg is a thing because of a)money and b) no good moderate option.

Kamala and Booker each made the mistake of trying to take up the progressive lane, or in Bookers case, no lane.

Look how it helped Pete once he embraced that lane.

There's just no good options left in that lane.

I've said it before, but if I *was* a moderate I would not be happy at all with my choices this go around.
