Vice President

I get that the democrats need to do whatever it is going to take to win. I just cringe at the idea that the only way to “make people comfortable” is for the ticket has to have a straight white dude on it. Like it is only ok for a woman/Black/Brown/Queer person to be on the ticket if a straight white guy is there to hold up the status quo. It sucks for everyone who is not a straight white guy (more than 70% of folks in the US) to know that they will never be trusted to lead without the straight white guy looking over their shoulder.

I like Josh Shapiro and voted for him as governor. I wouldn't relish losing him in that role, but if that's what it takes this November, then so be it.

I've been laughing for the last five minutes...that's such a wonderful turn of a phrase....
Um.. actually, it's a rather unfortunate phrase. I know what you meant, but it has another more common usage.

Happens to me a lot. I missed the whole teabagger thing, too.
"Common usage" depends on who you hang out with.
eta: I think I did it again.

Roy Cooper of NC has removed himself from contention for the VP spot.

Fundraising.
Harris was expected to have fundraising trouble. Here’s why big donors are actually lining up in droves.
The idea that Kamala Harris would be unable to raise money has been quickly dismissed, with enthusiasm for her presidential bid hinging on who she’s up against — and who she’s replacing.

It’s down to six.
Not sure who it will be, but I’m of the opinion it won’t be Pritzker. Am thinking Walz or Shapiro.
Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen. Place your bets.

The coming rally in Philadelphia is a giveaway IMO.

Kelly or Shapiro?
-
I think it will be Shapiro.
-
@wtg I do too but I like Kelly more.
No matter - either will be fine.

The rally is in Philly. I like Kelley also. It will be Shaprio to help swing Pennsylvania.
