1. Sorry MSM.

2. Welcome back!

I wonder if Whitmer would accept the VP slot if offered

[Ocelot II]

3. I hope nobody else does, either, and that there's minimal competition

for the VP slot. We don't need any more drama, controversy or division.

9. Spot on.

6. Welcome back.

Also, good — Harris will make a great candidate AND (hopefully) president.

7. Good.

This is a minefield for candidates with future aspirations of higher office and I'm glad to see she has enough political savvy not to fall for it.

Full-throated support for Biden was the play before and now choosing not to challenge Kamala is the play now for those that want to have a viable future in the Democratic Party.

8. this is welcome news, but unsurprising -- no way she was going to be the one to ring that bell

11. I'll leave it to experts on two strong women on ticket. But I'd love to see Harris/Whitmer kick some trump rearend.

They'd make a good team and a big change in American exceptionalism.
