I can’t read the article myself due to the paywall. But presumably these quotes are by the same individual? Why would any Democrat campaign take the advice of someone who has spent decades helping to get Republican presidents elected? Why would he offer his advice to them at all? Certainly not in good faith. And why would he be an expert at what makes a good choice regarding nominees? His campaigns have presumably lost as many as they’ve won and their electorate is motivated by fundamentally different things. And never has there been a situation like this for either party during an election, a former president and convicted felon and current president circling the drain.
I don’t necessarily disagree with the sentiment, but given the source I don’t give the slightest fuck what his view point is on matters of the Democratic Party.
I would love to vote for Mitt Romney instead of Biden. Can we make that happen? I’ll vote for basically anything over Trump but I don’t like the Biden Harris ticket at all.

You’re right. He consulted on campaigns for some pretty vile sons-of-removed, but at least he’s a member of the Lincoln project who endorsed Biden in 2020 and voted a straight-D ticket, so in that way he’s one of the few who’s putting his money where his mouth is.
Well that’s good to know. Thank you.
Stuart Stevens is fairly well known as Mitt Romney’s top strategist. He is a straight shooter, and his opinion is in good faith.
It’s funny to see someone that is such a neolib that they’d characterize a guy who ran a botched presidential campaign as “straight shooter”.
