Of course the Beast will drop out somehow...Here's my bet on how this will go down....The DNC will ask Bernie, who will nobly and publicly turn down the offer (he CAN be bought by Billionaires). They will slip in Warren...she is the only one that can close the enthusiasm gap.
She can pull back the Trump defectors, create enthusiasm..Biden and Kaine not so much.
What do yo think?
I’ve heard that sucker could suck the chrome off a trailer hitch.
Isn't Bill Clinton the head of the DNC and the only reason the Killery is there in the first place.
They will download her into a puter, stall forever that she has a minor health issue while the body is in the morgue and cgi her in a virtual stage with the computerized version of her making speeches.
Replacing a 69 year old ‘Illary because of neurological problems with an even older Aneurysm Joe would be like Andropov succeeeding Brezhnev.
Biden’s too honest? I used to think so, but then his son magically ended up with a cushy job with a Ukranian oil company. It just might be that Biden is as much of a soldout globalist as the rest of the DC crowd, but with a more compelling biography.
Biden/Warren with ValJar staying on to keep those two in line.
One thing good for Hillary is that this election hasn’t been about issues. It’s about everything else. I hope Trump will ignore all this noise and stay focused on issues.
Warren or Biden. I’d lean towards Warren since they’d be loath to give up on the gender issue. Biden because he could run on experience. (I know, he can’t, but they believe he could)
As a practical matter, most deadlines to certify candidates have now passed. The latest (Washington) is September 19, a couple are tomorrow, and the rest are already past.
Besides, early voting is getting started over the next few weeks and some ballots may already be going out.
Sick or dead, Democrats are stuck with Clinton on the ballot.
They’ll pick Kaine. He’s bland, and most people have never heard of him. A non-threatening alternative to Trump amongst the mushy independents.
Trump should invite jill Stein and Gary johnson to a debate...wo Hillary.
Biden
Will not be Warren. She gives me a vibe she won’t ever run. Not sure why not, but something is going on there.
She may suffer from terminal pillow over her head, but there is no way Hillary is dropping out in the next sixty days. The donks can’t force her either. She has too much dirt on them, and will go full scorched earth. She will know ordered General Carter Ham relieved of command and why. Being a participant, she will know why Ambassador Stevens was murdered in a Uriah the Hittite maneuver.
She’ll take them all down with her.
But... She might die, or be helped along to that.
They'll "Turn on, tune in and drop out" though not necessarily in that order.
The DNC is an all-Hillary operation. Tim Kaine is a past head of DNC. Unless she outright dies, she will not go easily or quickly. Replacing her would be a bloodbath of insiders versus outsiders, will leave large portions of the Dem electorate unhappy, unmotivated, and confused, and will run a lot of time off the clock.
Were this to actually happen, the only rational choice would be someone with broad name recognition, previous vetting, and the ability to tap into a national organization quickly. Kerry or Biden are their only players. Kerry has the ambition, but I’d give Biden the edge. Bring it on.
The only way Pickles drops out is if she is six feet under, with an oak stake through her heart, her head removed from her body, the body covered with garlic and the casket entombed with four feet of reinforced concrete on all sides.
In that unlikely scenario the dems don’t have much of a bench.
Algore and Kerry both lost to Bush, so they are history.
The losses in congress and the various statehouses ruined the dems farm teams.
Biden and Liawatha are the only closers the donks have.
Biden is a known and safe bet after 8 years as the Child Kings VP.
He may be Crazy Uncle Joe, but doesn’t the crazy uncle still get invited to the family reunion?
Liawatha has the necessary lady parts to continue the “Historical Firsts” run for the democrats.
Even a female VP would be a first and help cement the vagina vote.
Plus she’s more palatable to the average dem than Pickles.
Plus I imagine her Senate seat is a safe one for the democrats.
My gut tells me it would be Biden with Liawatha as VP.
Why did neither of these two run in the primaries?
Easy.
They both understand that Arkancide is a real malady to be avoided at all costs.
Neither wanted to wake up in Ft Marcy Park with the thumb of their off hand in the trigger guard of a revolver and three self inflicted gun shot wounds in the back of their heads.
(Those weren’t mistakes, they were signatures!)
Oh no. She will die before she is forced out. I believe she feels the presidency is her right, what is due her, and her legacy. She will wield every last ounce of effort, favor, you-name-it to stay in the race.
LOL! The Uniparty put ALL its eggs in one Deplorable Basket Case...
