Biden and Harris would be a lethal combination against Trump in the suburbs.
I hope that’s what’s holding up her endorsement. I’m ready to go on a shopping spree in Biden’s website once that’s announced.
I'm honestly not sure if Kamala would be the best choice. Many progressives don't like her, she doesn't have a clear base of support that might otherwise sit out, and it just seems too inevitable. I think a Yang pick might be risky, but it has the potential to pay off greatly
Harris would turbocharge black turnout, IMO, and also help even *more* in the suburbs than he would likely already do. Progressives are already going to be mad about Biden anyway, so if they're not voting for Joe or staying out, I don't think Harris will effect it one way or the other
Yes it would be Clinton/Gore-esque in doubling down on the Black base and making further inroads in rapidly diversifying suburbs across the country (particularly in the Sun Belt where we have 5 battleground Senate races across 4 states).
Kamala would also be the perfect standard bearer if Joe decides to retire. Especially if DNC tosses IA and NH as the first contests. She would run away with the nomination and consolidate the party easily.
