    I would love if he ran. These middle of the road candidates are exactly what we need right now during a time where the middle is shrinking every day in favor of extremist my-way-or-the-highway politics.

    Manchin is a Democrat, and I'd be willing to entertain moderate Republicans these days too. Moderates are the ones who know how to govern while the extremists only know how to perform political theater.

    Something tells me he probably won't run though.

    I don’t think there’s any chance he’d win a democrat primary. Most dems nationally dislike him for being such a dino

    Mansion burned his bridges when he voted for Biden’s budget busting bill and got nothing in return. I could have told him that was going to happen. Mansion is now a man without a party because he has PO’d both sides. Don’t expect any honesty or integrity from the far left members of the Church of Climate Change. Mansion should have know that.

    This is the usual pattern from a washed up politician who fixing to retire. You run for president in desperation to see if lighting strikes. It has missed 99.99% of the time. I can’t think of the 0.01% it has worked, but perhaps someone will enlighten me.

    And that sucks!

    At least time will eliminate both of them, but by then the country will be down the crapper.

    We don’t need any more geriatric presidents!
