It will go to the Democratic Convention where the delegates will hammer it out - expect others to throw their hat in the ring.
Media outlets pushing this as if the Dems are going to have to scramble to get a candidate. No way this happens if they don’t have something in mind. It’s gotta be Harris As a registered democrat I would vote for Harris. I probably would have voted Biden but didn’t feel great about it. I don’t think this does anything. I don’t think Harris will defeat Trump. Gotta wonder why exactly this is going down. Maybe the polling showed things they didn’t like and it’s not been talked about or revealed?
Shapiro seems like a safe pick to me. I feel like it's gotta be a boring white guy in a swing state. He will probably mop the floor with JD Vance in a debate, for what that is worth.
Harris won’t get the moderate vote. If they run her they are handing the election to Trump and allowing him to destroy the country.
I think this will be handled well ahead of the convention. Biden probably got assurances of that. There might be a few that don't go along with the program, but I think even most of the furthest left in the part are pragmatic when it comes to things like another Trump presidency. I just don't see this being like 2016 where Hillary's people ran a snobby campaign, the DOJ and Russian interference hurt her a bit, and people didn't think Trump could turn out as bad as he did. Everyone knows who Trump is now. Harris isn't despised or envied in the way HRC was. Dems will coalesce around her.
And the incarcerations. I really don't think moderates are going to freak out over Kamala being the nominee.
Harris is far from radical. I am making a habit if being out of touch when hell breaks loose. At a book sale and text kept pinging on phone. I was getting annoyed. Got home....
