Would enough Democrats and Republicans support her as a compromise candidate?
Just a thought.

I'd have no problem with her, because she wouldn't put up w/ MTG, Boebert or Jordan's bullshit.

(15,506 posts).... The Rs did win the house. Wouldn't it be better to force them to accept someone who appears to respect norms? We can't get a progressive leadership, I don't think. What? Do we want to offer Manchin as a reverse prospect?

(15,506 posts)... a majority big enough to elect her. Since it's a foregone conclusion that we're not going to get a Democrat, I'd rather have a Republican with some moral fiber, even if her ideology is verschmucked.

(4,340 posts)Like every Presidential election cycle the press (and invariable some people here) float the idea that we should have a Republican as Veep, to reach across the aisle and all that. Well fuck that. These are horrible people, Liz Cheney is a horrible person and we shouldn't get in bed with them at all. What the hell DU?
