Jill Biden opened an old wound with Kamala Harris as the California senator's name circulates as a possible running mate for Joe Biden.
Harris's standout moment during the 2020 Democratic primary was her takedown of Joe Biden during last summer's opening debate in Miami. The political grenade caught the two-term vice president's campaign off-guard because of her friendship with his son Beau Biden. The pair were the attorneys general of California and Delaware, respectively, at the same time.
Jill Biden, during a breakfast fundraiser in upscale Glencoe, Illinois, recalled her husband's shock when Harris took him to task for opposing federally mandated busing during the 1960s and the 1970s. Harris was bused to school as a child growing up in Northern California, but she dampened the attack after confusing her own position on the issue.
“Our son, Beau, spoke so highly of her and, you know, and how great she was. And not that she isn’t, I’m not saying that. But it was just like a punch to the gut. It was a little unexpected," the former second lady said Friday of her late son.

It will be the Wookie.
Nope....It's going to be Gavin Newsom or Andrew Cuomo. Most Likely BOTH. Either one on the top...won't matter anyway.
They are the only ones who have not been out there mixing it up and are not politically wounded, who are governors of large states, who control large political machines on BOTH coasts and have executive experience and are...VERY LIBERAL.
They are BOTH significantly YOUNGER than anybody in the race on either side.
Their entrance will depend to a large degree on whether Trump is vulnerable.
Hillary is too old, and damaged goods as a two-time loser. There is nobody else on the democRAT side with anything resembling gravitas. The "brokered" convention is a ruse. Andrew Cuomo = Chuck Schumer & the NY/Bloomberg machine Gavin Newsom = Nancy Pelosi & the California/Getty Machine
Times Up and Heels Up 2020
LOL—Mrs Plugs talking about “a punch to the gut.”
Next: she’ll probably call someone at a campaign event a “lying dog-face pony soldier.”
Why do they all do?
Joe does not like the way she smells.
I think she is running the Biden campaign for the most part, sounds like Jill is still salty over this.
Yeah, this is really a bizarre statement and out of order for the spouse of a candidate. I don’t recall even Hillary attacking another Democrat while Bill was POTUS.
Whoever it is, Jill, that person will be president when your husband’s cabinet 25th-amendments his sorry @ss. Any you’ll have nada!
Willie Brown is a real power broker in Cal and now SF. Ye and Harris slept together for I don’t know how long. If I slept with Brown, (LOL) I would at least get an education on politics and power.
He got her two state jobs and supported her for DA in SF and AG in Sacramento.
The short answer to your question is, she thinks it is owed her after she coasted through California and became a senator.
LOL.
No way the Veep is a White Male.
Not f they want any chance of winning.
And Newsom and Cuomo bring zero to the table. The Electoral votes from their states are a lock for the Democrats.
Owens is 30. 2024 maybe.
If the Dims pick Joe, Joe will pick Warren; Bernie might do the same if he gets the nod.
Warren did badly in her native state of OK and her adopted state of MA. She’s got as much voter appeal as Jeb Bush.
“Warren did badly in her native state of OK and her adopted state of MA. She’s got as much voter appeal as Jeb Bush.”
That will not matter so much in the general election, when she is the V.P. pick of a more popular Dim candidate, and she will help either an establishment type like Biden or a Socialist like Bernie with “Progressive” Dims.
