Biden confirms he's considering Whitmer for VP
The Hill ^ | 04 01 2020 | Tal Axelrod

Former Vice President Joe Biden confirmed this week that Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) is one of the women he's considering as a potential running mate in his White House bid.

Biden, who has already vowed to tap a woman as his vice presidential pick, said Tuesday night he’s been considering Whitmer for the role for months, but that he is eyeing as many as 10 potential candidates.

“She made the list in my mind two months ago. There’s probably going to be a list, I’m in the process of, Brian, we’ll have it by mid-April, putting together an organization that will run the background checks…by the second or third week in April,” Biden told MSNBC host Brian Williams.

“I’ve thought about some of the women who I believe are ready to be president and I think I can work with and would be willing to work with me. It’s going to be somewhere between six and 10 of them.”

Whitmer, a rising Democratic star who flipped Michigan’s governorship in 2018, has long been seen as a possible running mate for Biden. Whitmer runs a crucial swing state that Democrats will almost certainly have to win back in November to defeat President Trump, and she handed Biden a high-profile endorsement before the Wolverine State’s primary last month, which the former vice president ultimately won by double digits.

“Joe Biden carries lists of women around in his pocket!”

Similar to Mitten’s dossier?

Maybe he should get the nomination first?

Last time I looked, Bernie wasn’t out.

Whitmer is a socialist Soros stooge, but there is not much dirt on her that would deter many from supporting her.

Pence will remind everyone that she tried to make an effective treatment for coronavirus illegal. Michigan CV deaths now on the way to 300.

Well, the concave upper/divot/dimple is preferable to a lower something sticking outward.

The Guv is magnificently buxom and bosomy and she flaunts it.

Just right for little Slo-Mo Joe to nestle and sniff around in.

Biden, who has already vowed to tap a woman

I think that's what is getting him in trouble.

Gretchen Whitmer is as bad a pick as Stacey Abrams. Either one makes him a loser for sure. It appears as though the democrats have already acknowledged that they cannot beat Trump so they decided to just snow people with Biden picking a woman and doing some of the other dumb things.

She’s a dolt but this obviously fake because the people behind Biden wouldn’t put her name out there like that.

This is some kind of tactic. Perhaps to get the Rat base to go bananas and demand a big fat dumb woman “of color.”

Mitt’s binders, as I recall.

[Joe, write it down and put the piece of paper in your pocket.]

Excellent advice. That will help Joe a lot. If he can remember which pocket it’s in.

[Joe Biden: “She made the list in my mind two months ago.”]

I hope she swept and dusted while she was in there.
