        I think everyone who had their name pushed and could have a chance at the convention has already endorsed Kamala Harris. They’re pretty obviously trying to avoid a contentious convention.

          That seems to be the goal. I think it’s a good idea to not go too hard on Harris until the convention, but the excitement seems there.

        Yeah it’s a point they’re allowed to make now, don’t know how well it’s really going to stick though. However so far the best republicans have against Kamala is that she… Laughs? That’s a good sign. Like a lot of the stuff people like me on the left have against Kamala is stuff republicans wouldn’t want to at her for.

        I still really want AOC but with Whitmer bowing out I think Buttigiege is probably it.

          Harris is a black woman. No way they’re picking a gay man as her running mate. They’re worried she has too much for the (X)phobic crowd on her own. I would be absolutely shocked if whoever they pick as her VP isn’t a straight white man. You can say what you like about it but that’s the reality of where we are as a nation.
