I like Pete, but if Shapiro could lock in PA, and he's good.

Now what I think about it. It's probably going to be Shapiro. I don't think they'd do whitmer because of two females. Even though she'd bring a swing state. I think PA is the bigger win

Rachel Maddow schooling Katy Tur on how to discuss the Kamala Harris campaign. By expressing that there isn't any other viable option, shutting down Tur's attempt to smear Kamala by quoting people who don't like her (Kamala).
It's refreshing to hear someone (Rachel) expressing informed opinion based on things that have actually happened.
Maddow: "With Kamala Harris at the top of the ticket, no one is going to pick fuckhead and that guy."
Katy tries again: "But I'm hearing in my feed, from young girls, that they are afraid that sexism will be used against Kamala, like it was against Hillary. Isn't it true that sexism brought Hillary down?"
Maddow: "Yup." pause "So what does that mean, that a woman should never run again?"

I think Trump will go full misogynist and piss off a lot of women who will be reminded of what happened with roe. I think having her at the top will put roe back front and center

Welp title change needed. I expect Trump to go full birther again. Who knows what will happen with this Supreme Court
I would like to say that I don't think even this SCOTUS would overturn Wong Kim Ark, but there are probably already three votes to do so.

In theory, SCOTUS could overrule Wong Kim Ark, but note U S. Constitution grants Congress the ability to determine citizenship, and further note Congress already has done so.
Which means Congress (and a willing president) also could take it away.

BREAKING. Full statement from Vice President Kamala Harris:
"On behalf of the American people, I thank Joe Biden for his extraordinary leadership as President of the United States and for his decades of service to our country. His remarkable legacy of accomplishment is unmatched in modern American history, surpassing the legacy of many Presidents who have served two terms in office.
"It is a profound honor to serve as his Vice President, and I am deeply grateful to the President, Dr. Biden, and the entire Biden family. I first came to know President Biden through his son Beau. We were friends from our days working together as Attorneys General of our home states. As we worked together, Beau would tell me stories about his Dad. The kind of father—and the kind of man—he was.
And the qualities Beau revered in his father are the same qualities, the same values, I have seen every single day in Joe’s leadership as President: His honesty and integrity. His big heart and commitment to his faith and his family. And his love of our country and the American people.
"With this selfless and patriotic act, President Biden is doing what he has done throughout his life of service: putting the American people and our country above everything else.
"I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination. Over the past year, I have traveled across the country, talking with Americans about the clear choice in this momentous election. And that is what I will continue to do in the days and weeks ahead. I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party—and unite our nation—to defeat Donald Trump and his extreme Project 2025 agenda.
"We have 107 days until Election Day. Together, we will fight. And together, we will win."

Josh Shapiro @JoshShapiroPA
President Biden is a patriot who has served our country honorably in the Senate, as Vice President, and as one of the most consequential presidents in modern history.
President Biden has gotten an incredible amount done to move our country forward, defend our democracy, and protect real freedom.
I am proud to work by his side and am grateful for his leadership and his unwavering commitment to delivering for Pennsylvania — the Commonwealth that raised him.

Buttigieg is a wonderful speaker and really knows how to stick it to conservatives on policy, but he won't put indiana in play. Someone from a South-ish state like KY or NC would likely bring in more voters. I voted for Warren in the (2020) primaries mostly because she's is a better speaker than Harris.

Things have changed now, but Josh Shapiro has said flat out he just became governor in PA two years ago and intends to finish his term. I like the idea of Roy Cooper.

I like Beshears or Cooper - southern appeal. A friend mentioned Kelly (AZ). He's a good moderate white guy with name recognition, but he's also from the West. I do think it needs to be a white guy. A moderate from the South will maybe comfort some swing voters. I love Pete and boy is he good in an interview (and probably debate) but I don't know that he'll bring anyone new. If Harris wins, he'll be back in the administration (I boosted his tweets about air travel refunds, etc after the outage last week).
OTOH I don't know how much difference a VP pick makes. ALTHOUGH this is an unprecedented situation. Maybe people will vote for her to "prove" they're not racists (I don't know how else to figure out people who voted Obama then Trump).
I hope this will get the left wing (squad) to shut up and stop squabbling within the Dem party.

I like Mark Kelly, but if he runs for VP we lose a badly needed Senator.
Every time an Arizona Democrat moves to Washington, it takes 10 years to recover.
