I saw a post stating that Mike Pence may run - but then I found several where he has no plans.

Keep in mind - for a successful run - candidates need to start in early '27 as it takes plenty of money!
First primaries are in Jan '28

There are a lot of names being thrown around, but I think things will get narrowed down pretty quickly once the primary season starts.

The DNC has been known to give the nomination to the “safe” candidate, so I expect that they are likely to pass over all of the DSAs and give the nod to a moderate, like Andy Beshear, or possibly even a progressive, like Gavin Newsom.

On the Republican side, it’s pretty much a foregone conclusion that the nomination will go to whoever President Trump ultimately chooses to endorse—probably Vance or Rubio.

Based on recent history, just ask yourself “who are the two ’Least Capable’ candidates in America?” and those will be our choices in the November 2028 election.

I think Ron DeSantis is a real contender. He has elevated Florida Republican politics to a level of political corruption that one used to have to go to Chicago to find. After voting Republican every election since 1980, his endorsement of a candidate required me to cast a vote for the Democrat rival in this 2026 mid-term election. My party needs a wake-up call that TOO MUCH is TOO MUCH and they need to clean up their house.

There's no way I would vote for Vance or Rubio.
