Kamala's Running Mate Selection Process Takes a Humiliating Turn
PJ Media ^ | 30 July 2024 | Matt Margolis

Kamala Harris's search for a running mate has hit yet another snag. Previously, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-Mich.) took herself out of consideration, and two others have followed suit since dirt dug up on them made them a lot less likely to be picked. Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-Pa.) has been accused of covering up sexual harassment in his office, and then Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) has been exposed as the co-founder of a spy balloon company that was partially funded by China. This may not preclude Kamala from selecting either, but it likely hurts both of their chances.

Now, another top contender has taken his name out of consideration: Gov. Roy Cooper (D-N.C.).

According to the New York Times, Cooper "has informed [Harris's] team that he has withdrawn from the vice-presidential sweepstakes, according to two people briefed on the matter."

I strongly support Vice President Harris’ campaign for President,” Cooper said in a statement. “I know she’s going to win and I was honored to be considered for this role. This just wasn’t the right time for North Carolina and for me to potentially be on a national ticket.

No one wants to join the 2024 Designated Loser team.

Maybe she'll pick Elizabeth Warren. Wouldn't that be a hoot!

Nikki Haley? Chris Christie?

Walter Mondale lost 49 states* for the D party in 1984
and
there was nothing like the Harris scandals in his record
and
he was Eligible for the POTUS job, too.

*and he carried his home state of MN by just a scant 0.18% margin, nearly losing it, too

If Roy Cooper has a wife, she probably warned him the type of woman Kamala is. Some women see straight through the pretense of other women.

They are on a nationwide search for the dumbest white guy they can find—so Kamala looks smart by comparison.

not surprised there is no bench candidates when democrats sought to corrinate
Colin Kaepernick whose only qualifications are based on DEI requirements. And threw “democracy” to the wind. 😉
