Why did Joe pick Kamala to run with him? Remember?

[Frasier Balzov]

She was originally taking aim at him at the Democratic debates in 2020.

Joe said to himself "she's got a fighting spirit."

Kamala dropped out of the primaries strategically early.

And look where she is today.

Those two side-by-side AND with a reassuring succession plan.

1. Gotta ask, your profile doesn't say where you are.

Is your username a risk there?

3. Illinois suburban Chicago.

Hoping the convention is a huge success!

4. i lived in Franklin Park until the fall of '59.

My father got transferred to Milwaukee. I am in Florida now. A Wisconsin friend told me today that until the blowup about him calling Milwaukee horrible, TSF had planned to stay in Chicago during the convention,

5. He does own property here.

[rzemanfl]

6. I don't think he really owns anything these days, but I get your point.

I am happy for his Secret Service detail though, not having to commute so far, every day. The corrupt motherfucker only thinks of himself.

[Frasier Balzov]

7. Always steering people to his own properties.

And ordering them to if he must.

8. What does it mean?

Thanks

2. I remember how great Kamala Harris was in congressional debates.

I remember how well-researched and well-reasoned her statements always were.
I remember how fearless and self-restrained and gracious and perceptive her demeanor always was.
I remember thinking that Joe Biden was showing very good judgement in choosing her for his Vice President.

9. She's a gem, for sure. NT

[Tommy Carcetti]

10. That's what I don't get.

We’ve got a built in succession plan in case the worst happens.

Calling President Biden to step aside now is completely superfluous.

11. "strategically early"

Is that a new euphemism for "because her campaign ran out of funding"?
