Some posters keep saying that there is a secret plan to suddenly switch Joe Biden to someone else at the Democratic National Convention in August for the nomination. What happens to Kamala Harris? She is going to raise a stink about this. I say if there is a sudden switch, Kamala Harris will get the nomination.
BTW, as of today, Ohio is sticking to its guns on the ballot issue with Biden.
JUST IN: Joe Biden will NOT appear on the Ohio ballot in November as of right now, according to the Ohio Secretary of State
The Democratic Party has refused to follow state law requiring both parties to officially nominate their presidents 90 days before an election. Democrats aren’t doing that until 75 days prior.
And now, since the legislature has adjourned, the law cannot be changed, and Secretary of State Frank LaRose cannot make an exception.
This oughta be interesting!
supposedly mrs obama...
You make a good point that there is no way that they could explain not selecting her if she insists on replacing him. But they don't want Harris. She would do worse than Biden. Which means that they are stuck with him.
Harris could solve their problem by agreeing to step aside and endorse Newsom - but it would still be hard to explain. One of the many Democrat billionaires might give her a nice incentive to do that. But outside of bribery I can't see her doing that.
Agreed. Among other things, that campaign that has raised all that money is hers, too. The party just can’t seize that money and give it to someone else
Reuters can’t even spin for the Potato any longer.
One has no idea about that. Some possibilities are that either she gets a very attractive offer for something less demanding or they run her for POTUS with a glib, good looking, dynamic, personable (and obedient) VEEP who pretends to be somehow a 'centrist Dem' and the very reciprocal of Biden, policy-wise. Just more guesses, but possibilities about which we should be keenly aware.
Of course anything’s possible but she’s her no. 1 fan, and is thoroughly
Convinced of her own greatness,
So
I’m not sure what lesser gig she’d accept.plus the people don’t like her so I think an appeal VP would likely just be the proverbial lipstick on a pig
