Kamala emerges as early Biden VP favorite as sting of debate attack fades
Politico ^ | 5/10/20 | Christopher Cadelago, Natasha Korecki

Posted on 05/11/2020 2:32:12 AM PDT by Libloather

Kamala Harris was written off as a possible vice presidential pick for Joe Biden last year after a cutting debate performance where she seemed to suggest he was racially insensitive.

Now, Harris is not only in top contention, but Biden aides, surrogates and major donors see her as the best fit at the onset of the process - at least on paper - to join him atop the Democratic ticket.

Biden’s campaign has formally started vetting a group of prospects that includes roughly a dozen women. But in interviews, more than two dozen Democrats, including advisers, allies and donors aligned with Biden, returned to Harris as an early frontrunner. Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, the favorite among progressives, was also seen as rising above the pack.

Biden and his family were stung by the June debate exchange over his record on school busing. The attack was particularly hurtful because of Harris’ bond with Biden’s late son Beau, also a one-time state attorney general.

Can't use that word anymore. In anticipation of a possible Harris VP run the Associated Press has added the word mistress to its list of forbidden words in its latest style book, the outline they give to reporters and editors on what format they will accept.

true but not as much as Stacy Abrahms and the Biden campaign has got to be looking at the black vote that did not turn out for Hillary and hoping a semi black women would do it-

Ineligible anyway. Poor judgment ( except when it came to whoring her career forward?). Californication has its ballot rigging system firmly in place (and Its far far leftist commie/ Nazi propaganda mass media). So the D ticket will “Win” there regardless of who is on it. Kamala just isn’t needed. The DNC’s puppetmeisters will select someone who can help the ticket.

I hope he picks her- All we have to do is play her comments telling Joe to his face how bad of a President he would be.

Called it months ago.

It’s all about team Obama v team Clinton. And race. And Biden being blackmailable due to his corruption. And the wink/ nod that they could slide in the first woman prez due to slow Joe’s “forgetfulness”.

Slow Joe was initially a throwaway candidate because they knew that Trump was certainly winning in 2020.

Now with a tanked economy, they smell blood in the water.

If chosen and elected that’s a ten year (prospective) presidency for (whoever is chosen).

Joe resigns early, VP becomes President and can then be elected twice.

That’s the plan.

Don’t bet that “heels up” won’t be used by Trump. Looks like all this Obamagate attention might have scuttled the push for Big Mike.

Harris is not very smart. She can’t answer questions, without bringing up race, like a broken record.

"Suddenly emerges as an early VP favorite" - the job's been hers from the moment it was obvious one of the old white guys was getting the nomination.

She's got the melanin and vagina old white male politicians need.

Plus, she's totally cool with being felt up for political reasons, which is a Biden necessity.

A “mistress” is what is found between a mister and a mattress.

I love it when Kalama Zoo gives us lectures on morality. Her morals are an unstoppable hammer of righteousness.

They pretended Stacy Abrams was being considered, but that was just to make ugly fat black chicks feel less ostracized.

I hate to be blunt, but she's just too damn ugly for consideration. Plus, she was mean to Rerun when she was a waitress and everybody loved Rerun.
