Whitmer says she had 'opening conversation' about Biden VP pick
The Hill ^ | 5/19/20 | Max Greenwood

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) said on Tuesday that she has had an “opening conversation” with Joe Biden’s campaign about her potential as a running mate pick for the former vice president and presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.

In an interview on NBC’s “The Third Hour of Today,” Whitmer revealed that she has had a “conversation with some folks” about the running mate slot, but said that she did not see the discussion as particularly formal and is solely committed for the time being to her official duties as governor.

“It was just an opening conversation and it’s not something that I would call a professional, formalized vetting,” Whitmer told NBC’s Craig Melvin.

“I am making a little bit of time to stay connected to the campaign, but the most important thing that I have to do right now is be the governor of my home state. That’s all that matters to me in this moment.”

**SNIP**

Biden has offered little information as to who specifically he is considering, though he has said that he wants to choose a running mate that is “simpatico” with him. He is also said to particularly value political experience - a quality Whitmer certainly has from nearly two decades of public service in state and local government.

“SHE-NAZI”

“Strong Executive, proven strong leadership.”

LOL. I wonder if she overdid her virus crackdown because she was trying to show her executive bona-fides.

My sources in the Whitmer camp tell me the conversation started with “Joe can look, but he can’t touch.”

If Joe picks That Woman from Michigan, I see her and Dr.
Jill going at it earring to earring. Both are ambitious, pushy women.

Wow, if she is selected, the Dem ticket would be a senile idiot and a dictator. Great combination.

She reminds me of Principal Togar in the movie “Rock n Roll high school”.

Is there a single Democrat female in a leadership role that might pull in votes? Just don't know any that don't remind us of Cruella De Ville. Heil Whitmer indeed!
