during debate prep, she kept saying O'Biden. Calling him Joe prevented her from screwing up his name.
That was an unforgettable night. I never dreamed it could get weirder than Sarah Palin.

(85,999 posts)...and she responded to the moderator's question, gave an answer consistent with what she said in the first debate.
Sen. Harris in the first debate:
"I do not believe you are a racist. I agree with you when you commit yourself to the importance of finding common ground."

You:
"Harris did the "Joe is a racist" thang again, said Joe "worked with segregationists""

Joe Biden didn't just compromise with segregationists. He fought for their cause in schools, experts say.

(85,999 posts)...Joe needs to rely on more than his history if he doesn't want anyone to talk about it.
Or develop a thicker skin.

(11,949 posts)Biden/Harris would be win. Perhaps big.
Biden alone brings out the Obama coalition.
Together they exceed it.

(11,949 posts)No doubt you dont run for President without a supercharged ego. But I think Joe really believes he is the man to beat back Trump.
Obviously, I agree.
But, hell, I like Harris as well.
Tonights exchange between them gives me hope we might get both.

(68,600 posts)performance was lackluster and and she does have baggage.

GulfCoast66
(11,949 posts)Politics is like that.
But I really like her. She has actually done things and seen how the real world works.
On a ticket with Biden I think she adds a ton.
Plus, the base of our party here in the south is really African American women. No getting around it. They already support Joe. But with such a qualities African American woman available I would love to see her on the ticket.
But there are others as well. And no guarantees that any of the people on the stage the last 2 nights will be the veep pick.
I guarantee you one thing. If Biden takes the nominations he will take his pick more seriously than anyone else. He understands how important a loyal and respectful Vice President is in making a great President.

(47,517 posts)Joe was probably the best VP imaginable for Obama. I can imagine if nominated, he will be looking for HIS Joe Biden. Probably a woman of course.

(47,517 posts)Now I'm rather thinking Biden/Warren, though its possible Joe might look outside of the presidential lineup for a VP if he wins the nomination.

(2,701 posts)with CNN's Chris Cuomo, several weeks ago, he said the following:
"Regarding a running mate, there are lots of women around the country - women who are not running for President, as well, who are fully qualified to be Vice President. There are lots of qualified women out there..."
I won't be surprised if he chooses a WOC who is not even on the general public's radar - someone who is qualified and whom he can trust. The likelihood of this increases if Jill Biden has any say, which she most definitey will...
