@ElephantStomp

This just has me laughing.

I know you wouldn't ask @It Takes Eleven about much.

He's met me. I'm more of a dick/smart ass today than I was then. Might not be a good thing.

While I'm not that old, I've been told I'm "threaded" a bit differently.

Twisted? Maybe? A term I have heard before.

More than an old wash cloth.

I did not think it would happen, but sure looks like the Dem leaders are aligning now (Pelosi, Obama, others...) and taking Biden's legs out from under him. A lot of reports and speculation that he will bow out of the race, possibly this weekend... I guess time will tell, but for the first time, especially after seeing Pelosi take her concerns publicly (via leaks) and Obama putting it in reverse (according to reports), I don't think he makes the ticket.

The question, and drama, then becomes... who does? I don't see any way they can navigate around Harris moving up to take his spot... but I doubt that excites too many in the party either. And if she does take his spot, who becomes her #2? Whitmer? This is gonna get wild...

Her #2 will be Newsom

Double California ticket not supposed to run

Let me see the hands of those who confidently believe that Joe Biden has Covid. Count me out.

I don't think that happens. I think he has greater aspirations than staying in her shadows, and you could argue remaining CA governor is higher profile than VP. Also, the question of what would happen to California electoral votes would probably require one of them to change their state of residence ahead of an Electoral College vote. Newsom has family property in one of the mountain states, I believe.

I'm trying remember if this is just a fleeting thought; or I remember this correctly. Poli Sci class in the "fridged bitch."

People point to the "racial" element of replacing the entire ticket. If I'm not mistake, since the "War Chest" was for the Biden/Harris campaign, on of them HAS be on the ticket.

They can Super PAC that money anywhere they want.

BUT, I'd watch the money and see how much of it gets "consultant" diversions to Biden interests. That will be part of the deal.

After last night and some of the reporting I read I think it’s Newsom at the top of the ticket with either Hakeem Jefferies or Gretchen Whitmer

Newsom's certainly a capable speaker, but that financial record in California...spending like a drunken sailor, knowing what's around the corner, was incredibly irresponsible.

In the end, one of his spending cuts will likely mean "private" water owners will profit tremendously. That will benefit his largest supporter and continue his payback to the Resnicks for short-circuiting his recall.

If you “follow the science” and notice that he hasn’t worn a mask getting on, or off, AF1 . . .
