There is no doubt about it, Ossoff could still be a future president of the united states.

Maybe as a Republican.
LOL
why are you suggesting he'd likelier be a Republican president than a Democratic one, provided he gets there in the first place? Tongue

Because he's too centrist to be the Democratic nominee even in 2020 (let alone for future presidential races). He opposed taxes on the rich, said he'd fight a single step towards single payer, and wanted deficit reduction. Not to mention he's bland and uninspiring despite being an effective speaker.

Not gonna comment on Ossoff's chances, but Ossoff lost me when he opposed raising taxes on the rich though. I understand that he was trying to appeal to some moderate Republicans, but I have to admit that it's a disappointment nonetheless especially considering when I supported (and still support) higher taxes on the rich.

Educated upscale Republicans aren't dumb either. They understand full well that voting for Ossoff is a vote for Pelosi's agenda even if he promises to them that he won't raise taxes on the wealthy. The same prevailing sentiment is here in my social circle as well.
