Interesting the anti Biden Dems don’t want him to run simply because they think he’ll lose. No one, not a single Dem, mentions Biden is not mentally fit to serve as president. Nor, do any of them call for simple cognitive testing. Their only concern is winning and remaining in power.

What channel are you guys watching? Most of the cable channels have commentary during actual speeches.

Fox doesn’t on the important ones.
Believe they commentated over Keri Lakes speech. We watch FOX. But, I can’t stand Sean Hannity. He doesn’t report. He just wants everyone to know what he thinks or has done. He thought he’d just step into Rush Limbaugh’s shoes. He hasn’t and won’t. I also don’t care for Cavuto or Juan Williams. For me, FOX comes with abundant negative luggage.

All day they have been playing the clip of Biden saying that the only way he would pull out of the race would be if there was some kind of medical condition that forced him to....then bam all of a sudden, he has "covid".....smh...

I think Joe is seeing the door, and seeing he is not getting a lot of choice. I suspect he will indeed drop out at some point. Kamala will be stood up. Newsom will her her reluctant VP. When they lose, Newsome will be the heir apparent for 2028.

But I could be wrong.

12th Amendment
looked it up, and it is incorrect, common misconception.

There are many misconceptions about the rules of a president choosing their running mate. There’s no law or regulation against a president and vice president of the United States being from the same state. The reason why some people mistakenly believe such a prohibition exists comes down to a particular aspect of the Electoral College system laid out in Article II of the U.S. Constitution.

Article II states: “The electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for two persons, of whom one at least shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves.”
Under the original system, electors did not distinguish between candidates for the nation’s top two offices; the candidate with the most votes became president, while the runner-up became vice president.

It would be kind of dumb to both come from CA. That state is wrapped up. They need a dem from a purple state. Kamala coming from CA is already a wasted opportunity.

Kimberly Cheatle is at the RNC? That was just reported. Just when you thought things couldn’t get more weird.

Media has already deployed with their name calling, denial, finger pointing and most of all gaslighting and victim blaming.

Interesting thing.

Vance is the first VP that has actually been chosen by the Presidential Candidate in my lifetime.
Pence was an establishment pick that Trump allowed himself to be swayed by.

Reagan wanted Kemp but he had to take HW Bush to appease the establishment.
Look how that turned out……
