Just read this:

"Nobody has seen Stacey Abrams because she's still sheltering in place at the Golden Corral."

lol
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Apparently its Harris. She is even money. Everyone else adds up to even money (of course). Second choice is Val Demmings. I thought she was very weak as an 'impeachment manager'. I was unaware she was a police chief, in charge of a force known for, well, police abuse! So the top two "women of color" on the short list have a history of oppressing the minority community using their official roles. Only the Democrats! They don't like womanizer Trump so they choose creepy Joe! And they are unifying around a few dead Black men at the hands of the police by selecting a Black woman who put more Black men in jail than any hundred people you know! Priceless!

Even though I predicted early on she wouldn't be Democratic nominee, Vice does seem like a good position for her.

I'm sure we'll hear more on her record as district attorney if she is a real possibility.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Soopoo, I thought you had Harris pegged as a do-nothing who slept her way into her jobs type. Now she's an aggressive prosecutor?

Trump's closest wins in 2016 (under 1%) were
Michigan : 47.27% to 47.50% (Trump wins by 0.23%)
Pennsylvania : 47.46% to 48.18% (Trump wins by 0.72%)

If these two states are won by Democrats in 2020, and there are no other differences from 2016, Trump still wins by 2 electors.

Most of the hypothesized Democrat paths to victories start with these two states.

Not sure if she will help win PA and MI.

At this point, Biden doesn’t need help in those states, certainly not MI.

MICHIGAN
Biden 50% (+15)
Trump 35%

MI Senate:
Peters (D-inc) 48% (+16)
James (R) 32%

NEVER said she was a do-nothing! She DID sleep her way to jobs. There are often a plethora of qualified and talented people vying for a single job, and if you are keeping your eye on the prize spreading your legs can give you a BIG advantage over the competition. From all I can tell, she did a good job as prosecutor. The funny thing is, that will probably hurt her, as putting African-American criminals in jail is now looked on as a bad thing by the Democrat majority.

Do you think Biden is going to pick a candidate that he thinks is best to be President, or best to help him win the Presidency?
