The Democrats Need a Hero. They Actually Already Have One

Democrats are facing two crucial questions: (1) Keep Joe or dump Joe; and (2) in the event of the latter, do you bump Vice President Kamala Harris to the top of the ticket or hold an open convention?

Most conversations between Democrats never get past these two questions. Instead, they dissolve into shouts of “You don’t know!” “Well, you don’t know either!” But if two Democrats could somehow agree that Harris should lead the ticket, the obvious follow-up question is: Who would be the best choice for vice president

But most governors relish their jobs as CEOs of their states. When Biden secured the nomination in 2020, he invited Michigan Gov. Whitmer to meet him in Delaware for vetting. According to Whitmer, Biden asked her, “Why do you want to be vice president?” She told HOUR Detroit Magazine that her response was, “Joe, I’m here because you asked me to be here. I love my job.

Whitmer is a total nazi. What she’s doing to Michigan has set things back a thousand years.

If they do pick Kelly it’s not going to bring in any new voters to the Dem party. At the most it will stop conservative dems (if there are any left) from abandoning the Dem party.

Obama could beat us. Can’t run. So they need another Obama/BJ. They don’t grow on trees but in a nation of 300+ million I’ll say they’re out there. I once thought the next up and comer was John Edwards-joke.

What I’m saying is that we can’t count on the gullible voters to be unaware of the Joe Bidens out there. They’ll buy anything.
