Yeah, She was my assemblywoman growing up in LA. She's fantastic and even if she isn't the pick, I am happy she is getting the national attention she deserves. If Kamala ends up at VP or AG, I hope Gavin Newsom considers moving her up to the Senate.


+1. I worked with Bass and her team back in Sacramento when she was speaker. The congresswoman has great leadership skills and is an expert political player. If Dems take the Senate, Bass is just who you need as a behind-the-scene players to whip votes for Biden's leg agenda.


Oooh good insights. I’m in CA and worked with various activist organizations, and she was always lending her time, energy, resources, expertise to motivate volunteers, help campaigns, and get out the vote.


NP here, Love this. Karen Bass Fan Club. She rocks and is at the top of my list for the second-in-command.


When I look at her incredibly solid and deep list of accomplishments and leadership positions, few prospects compare. And she just seems like a genuine and lovely person. Although I still think Tammy D would be a great strategic pick, Bass seems an exceptional governing pick and I think that’s what Joe wants.

,I predict Harris because she can fight as dirty as Trump and will mail pence or nikki to the cross. I would prefer Tammy Duckworth.

I think Americans are fed up with nasty politics. I also think Duckworth and Bass are perfectly capable of being fighters, if in a less flashy way.

Not PP but 10000% agree with you. Trump has reduced our level of tolerance for nasty politics and selfishness.

Have you been looking at the polling in swing states? Biden doesn’t need a huge amount of help.

The following swing states have enough polling to compute a 538 polling average:

Florida: Biden +6
Michigan: Biden +8
Ohio: Trump +0.4
Pennsylvania: Biden + 7
Wisconsin: Biden +7

A surprise swing state: Texas: Biden +0.7

And don’t talk to me about Clinton because she did not have those polling numbers in July 2016.


Biden’s brilliant campaign strategy is to let Trump and the GOP do all the campaigning for him. I think there are more silent voters not interested in arguing their position of support for Biden than there are silent Trump voters.


Are they evenly distributed geographically?


Who is they? Please clarify.


The silent Biden voters. Also, the silent Trump voters.

Strangely, I almost never see analysis that recognizes how geographically concentrated HRC’s vote was. The current obsession with natural aggregates misses how important broader geographic support is to defeating Trump.

Huh? I see lots of stuff on geography. Specifically that Trump is losing white suburban women in every state.


Beating the dead horse one more time!


Burning the blood around the carcass at this point.

I am Currently undecided. Biden is such a nice guy. I would love him to pick someone as likable for VP like Stacey Abrams. The nice ticket would get me and maybe then congress/senate could get some real stuff done.

Well, every candidate, even Kamala, is nicer than the incumbment. So thank you in advance for your blue vote!

+100

Thank you for your vote.

When you add your liberal vote to the mix, we get that much closer to real immigration reform, higher taxes on the wealthy, student debt reform, defunding the police, and infrastructure improvements

I heard a Black radio host this morning claim Harris brings nothing to the ticket, Black nor whites like her. And he said since Blacks are already voting for Biden, might as well choose a white woman as VP to appeal to white suburban women. He recommended Gretchen Whitmer or Liz Warren.

The host is on to something. So much of this discussion is about affirming the ‘vote blue no matter who’ crowd, but the emphasis should be on garnering new voters.

This is why we need Harris. A VP who is a former Attorney General is well-versed in rule of law.

Harris will lose a ton of swing votes. She is not likable and she is polarizing. Trust me on this. I think she's great but she will not help Biden. I come from the evangelical culture-May of whom actually hate Trump (the intelligent ones). My family and friends (and thousands upon thousands like them) will never, ever vote for her.
