Joe Biden delays his running-mate pick by TWO WEEKS amid worries process has become a mess that has pitted women against women

Joe Biden has delayed naming his vice presidential pick by two weeks amid worries the process has become a mess that has pitted women against woman.

Biden said last week he would announce his running mate the first week of August but that appears unlikely to happen this week as he hasn't narrowed down his pick amid pressure to name a black woman.

But now that's been moved back by two weeks, The Washington Post reported, amid worries from Biden supporters that the process has become 'messier than it should be,' pitting women - and especially black women - against one another.

The delay indicates there is no clear favorite among Biden or his allies to be his running mate.

“For that eye blinding spectacle we can all be grateful that Stacey Abrams is not one of the finalists”

you might want to hold back on that gratefulness a tad, because Abrams could still be a dark horse candidate ...

In other words: The DNC hasn’t figured out yet who is going to be their actual Candidate for President, or if they are going to let Biden pretend to be to be the one, with a secret handler like Valerie Jarrett.

Joes VP choice has to pass the sniff test.

I think this woman would be a fine choice AND she's passed the test.

The headlines have already been written should there be a VP debate. Get ready for some form of:

First we have to elect him to find out who his VP candidate is.

It’s the Plastic-Faced PSYCHOPATH and the Dog-Faced PONY SOLDIER

Face it.

Joe Biden should ignore his promise to pick a woman and just pick Hillary. Isn’t identifying as a woman close enough? His trouble would all be over shortly after making that choice.

Does anyone seriously think Biden is playing an important part in the decision-making here? We already know he doesn’t like black women much (all the females he was caught groping or sniffing were white).

The Republican talking point here should be that Joe Biden’s continuing delays in naming a running mate is another example of his inability to make important decisions.

The Times might also mention that there is no rule that says a presidential candidate has to have a running mate. When Martin Van Buren ran for re-election in 1840, he dumped his vice president, Richard Johnson, after Johnson sold his mistress, who also happened to be one of his slaves. Afterwards, the Democrats couldn’t find a suitable replacement for Johnson, so they didn’t nominate anyone at all for the Number Two spot. In the end Van Buren wasn’t re-elected, but that’s another story.

They gave a long network interview this morning with S. Rice.
Looks like she’s the pick.

Well, Biden held a meeting with his aspirants for the VP slot, with the intention of choosing which woman "of color" would fill the bill.

It didn't go well.

I'd be surprised if he picks a woman at this point, and his groping problem is one reason. By taking on some Warren and Sanders agenda items, he's locked up as much of the vote as he's likely to get. The continuing riots pushed a lot of women out of the D column, and the revival of the China Virus Panic Porn is the DNC/Partisan Media Shill effort to stampede them back.
