With President Joe Biden dropping out of the presidential race and passing the baton to Vice President Kamala Harris, donors and delegates from Illinois said Monday that the mood of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago next month vaults from trepidation to elation.

Please clap
A lie that doesn't fool anybody, but is useful as a loyalty test.
Really acting like 'woman' is undefinable is not part of the deal.
Taking what they say at face value is a waste of time.
Yup. Fiery but mostly peaceful. Break out the beer and popcorn for this one.
It is an opening to audiences upset about men in women’s sports. Madame VP needs to answer. Why celebrate a woman President when any man can put on a dress and run as a woman ? They are going to run the same race Hillary ran.
Everybody expected Kamala astroturf and corresponding polls.
The Kamala deal includes keeping the Biden election donations. Maybe she is their safest bet, but compared to what?
They are running her as Female Obama. Going for youth vote. Women vote. The electorate has aged out since 2016. Gen Z is larger. Boomers have died.
The TV media. Social media. She’s the new fad. Will it last? I doubt it. But Obama Plouffe? Formidable.
Trump has Susie Wild? Also excellent.
Give Kamala the space to frick it up.
Be disciplined. She is a Marxist. If you go racist. Sexiest. You take the focus off the issues.
I know most attacks are not sexist etc. But if you even open that door a hair, you give her the opening to cry about it.
The headline should have included a “please clap” at the end. The hopium they are gaslighting is comical.
