Joe Biden’s transition team is vetting a handful of Republicans for potential Cabinet positions — despite doubts it will win him new support from the right and the risk it will enrage the left.
Reaching across the aisle to pick senior members of his administration could shore up Biden's credentials as a unity candidate, a message he's made a cornerstone of his campaign.

Yep, the familiar group of Nevertrumpers.
Kelly and Mattis are Democrats. And not just in name.

Romney had a whole website set up for when he thought he would win.
Fake news Mattison is a Dem and I think Munchin is a Dem too. The “tradition” did not change. Nevertheless, Biden picking Romney is not Bipartisan

This is a common practice for election teams that are competitive nearing election day. There is two months to a transition, prelim work is always done. Concerning the RINOS, that is political no doubt.

blah blah blah
another reason to send this old grifter packing.
more of the same.
