He's desperate.

Faced with a slew of baggage-laden female black candidates for his running mate, each of whom could drag his ticket down, Joe Biden is reaching out and around the vaunted race box to consider Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, the governor of Michigan as his running mate.

She would make Michigan tough to win for Trump. Her popularity in the last poll in July was over 60%.

I recall someone on this very site, from Michigan, told me and all of us once that Whitmer is not very popular in Michigan, and would not help the Democrat ticket carry Michigan.

Besides, she appears to not be a racial/ethnic minority, which we have been told for months were the leading candidates. Would there be frustration among the identity politics Democrats, if after getting hopes up, a white person is the VP nominee?????

That's a stretch. Maybe 50% due to Detroit and college towns in Ann Arbor and East Lansing.

Well, he thought it was a Tootsie Roll. I hope it didn’t take long for him to figure it out, although they don’t call him “Slo Joe” for naught.

Was that poll done after her masterful ruination of the state during this COVID crisis or before it?

Covid-19 has diminished her popularity significantly.

Oh, the women with their baggage is the problem, not the fact that Joe would grope her during a campaign speech.

If Joe Biden is smart, he'll try to appeal to working class Whites in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. That's the election right there.

After, it was done in late July. She is very popular, as much as we like to hate her.

What poll? I would be skeptical.

Right, the Governor who let Minneapolis devolve into a third world country? Or am I confusing politicians from that state?

BS on both points.

That’s what I thought, but a Michigander posted earlier that Whitmer approval polls are like at 60%.

Demento Joe needs a Midwest firewall & Michigan fits the bill.
