The writing is on the wall. Biden is toast. He's sinking faster than a hog in a bog. He has to go. But, they really can't bypass Kamala Harris for a few reasons. One is she inherits Biden's war chest if Biden drops out. Another reason is a recent new poll ( CNN Poll: Most voters think Democrats have a better chance of keeping White House if Biden isn’t the nominee ) showing Kamala Harris only down by two nationally to Trump in a two way race with a margin of error of 3.1 points. Every other dem fares worse than that. So, if I'm right then that means Kamala Harris will have to pick someone to be her running mate. Who would it be?
Newsome has always been on the A-list. I don't know if they are from the same state anymore. I don't see him accepting, especially since she will probably lose. He would probably like to set himself up for 2028, thinking Trump will win and only serve one term (realizing that Trump won't actually take democracy away as in the dem talking points)
Whitmer is from the swing state of Michigan and is probably the only other one frequently mentioned. Could be the first woman/woman ticket in history and appealing to those who think abortion is a top voting issue. This is my bet. Michigan is a swing state that they desperately need.
What say you?
