none of this really answers my questions. iguess the suggestion she would beat biden implies that democrats wouldn’t really want to nominate her, but who can say?
Democrats want Biden to win the election. Haley being nominated makes that harder.
If they don’t want her to be nominated, they’re not going to help her get nominated, are they?

A POLITICO analysis shows the former South Carolina governor is winning swaths of moderate voters who’d pick Joe Biden if Donald Trump wins the GOP nomination.
GOP’s Haley attracts non-Republicans … also regularly attracts swing voters who backed President Biden in 2020 … Leaning into her appeal to the political middle on the trail, Haley highlights surveys that show her leading Biden by double digits — 17 percentage points in one recent Wall Street Journal survey
Democrats acknowledge Haley could pose more of a threat to Biden than Trump, so they are tying her to the former president on virtually every issue … Democrats privately acknowledge that she would likely represent a worrisome opponent for Biden, citing polling that shows the former governor as the best-positioned candidate to unseat the sitting president in the general election.
Nikki Haley would likely win against Biden.
She’s (relatively) young, she’s a woman, she was born to immigrant parents, she’s taken a tough stance on Russia, she’s not obviously nuts.
If anything, the democratic establishment wants Trump to be the candidate. It’ll make a Biden re-election easier.
