Biden VP news megathread (pg 286 - been selected, announcement could be today)

He's not really going to do that and the article doesn't even say that he's "thinking" about it. He gave a throwaway answer so that the media didn't spin his answer into some sort of scandal about him hating Republican voters. The media loves to use these sort of questions to try and create drama for Democrats.

This, but some Republicans could be good choices for Biden - Phil Batt, Connie Morella, or Barbara Comstock would strengthen the ticket significantly.

I'm going to assume you are joking since Connie Morella is 88 and Philip Batt is 95 and because Comstock is just an obvious joke.

Barbara Comstock would be a phenomenal VP pick for Biden. She's an accomplished moderate PoWG that represented the growing base of the democratic party and is a fantastic fundraiser.

I like that answer from Abrams. I still don't think she would be a good VP at all, but I respect her being upfront and promoting herself.

Why do people think Warren will be a strong VP,pick, there is  like no other incumbent Democrat who actually ran behind Hillary Clinton in 2018, she literally had the exact same margin as Klobuchar!

She beat Scott Brown in 2012 and she was leading the field of candidates before Bloomberg came into the contest.

Rs and conservatives love to criticize Dems Veeps, but the last three R Veeps didnt have appeal beyond the R base: Quayle, Cheney and Pence, that's why Bush Sr lost, Bush Jr barely won and Trump is losing in 2020

Beating a republican in a state where Obama won by 30 is not an accomplishment

Next week The convention can't come soon enough. I'm tired of the Pro vs Anti Kamala camps bickering about which one is more irritating. You both are!

I don't get the hype around her, nor do I get the disdain. Kamala is very generic center left Dem

Kamala is very left-wing. It's scary how fast American politics has shifted, lol. I feel like "moderate" voters like me are being force fed a bunch of leftwing gobbledygook just because we think Trump and the current GOP are garbage. I really want Trump and the GOP eliminated, but I'm skeptical of a lot of the proposals coming from Kamala and other dems. Just because she isn't as fanatical as Bernie/Warren doesn't mean Kamala is "center left"

Biden's team has just informed me that I have not been chosen for VP.

I'm sorry to disappoint you all

At least Elizabeth Warren wasn't picked, but the Harris pick is still incredibly disappointing. Joe Biden is probably the last democratic presidential nominee I am voting for in a long time.
