Would I vote for Romney over Trump? Sure, and I’m a Democrat. But it would have to be a very dark day if those are our only two choices.
Well, at least “all Democrats since a lot of the white southern Democrats became Republicans in the 1960s and 1970s.” It’s hard to believe now, but guys like Strom Thurmond, George Wallace, and Jesse Helms were all once Democrats.
The only way you’d ever face that choice would be in a Republican primary.

@kenobi_65 two posts up. Excellent correction, thank you.
The “center” is Biden, and the “center right” doesn’t exist.
His name is mud in a big part of the GOP.
Yeah, because he’s a traditional conservative. How do you think that will fly with Democrats?
(His name is not merely mud with Democrats.)
No, he hasn’t.
What possible policy positions does he hold that would garner a single iota of support in the Democratic primaries?
I think he is smart and could simply sell the policies he needs to sell to get elected. He would be no threat as a republican but we have a lot in both parties right now that are very unhappy with their fringes.
He says Trump is too old, and Romney’s only nine months younger.
I suspect Liz Cheney is secretly but truly centrist. Can’t believe it for Mitt.
Unless he completely changes his stances on things like abortion, reproductive health, and gun laws, there’s no way he gets any significant amount of support from liberal voters in primaries against actual liberal Democrats.
He’s been more willing to “work across the aisle” than most of his GOP colleagues. That does not make him a centrist, in the slightest.
Perhaps you have confused the Democratic Party with No Labels?
I don’t think that’s true about Biden.
If he could do that, he’d have done it in 2012.
That whole “Lets vote against our own self-interests just to drive the other party crazy” strategy is a Republican thing, not a Democratic thing.
“I like firing people”
“Corporations are people, my friend”
And many more! Order now!
Yeah, we just stay at home on Election Day and pout because our preferred candidate didn’t get the nomination, despite holding nearly identical positions on actionable policies, resulting in catastrophic damage to our democracy. It’s our charm.
Well, besides the fact that lots of them voted for him when they elected him governor of Massachusetts?

How so?
