1. No, I don't think so...

...but 1/2 of it is doable, though.

[left-of-center2012]

2. No

Just, no.

[a kennedy]

3. I don't think so......but I love this photo.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

4. Got half right!

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Welcome to the revolution!!!

[wildflower]

5. :thumbsup:

[BannonsLiver]

6. I'd be enthusiastic about either combination

Two of my favorite senators right there.

[earthshine]

7. Yes. But with Warren on top. nt

[blm]

8. Yes, please. Tough, smart, competent SQUARED.

[Green Line]

9. No

[George II]

10. Got half right!

Harris will be Biden's running mate.

[thesquanderer]

11. Polls so far don't have Harris beating Trump in PA or WI

so at the moment, that could be a risky ticket.

But things can change...

[pnwmom]

21. There hasn't been a single debate yet. So yes things can change. A lot. n/t

22. As a Pete supporter, that's what I'm hoping for!

But if Pete doesn't start polling well against Trump in battlefield states before my primary rolls around, my vote may be up for grabs. Of course, if that's what happens, Pete may well be out by then anyway.

24. I don't think so...I lived in PA for years...they will not win in my opinion. Without the blue

wall, we have no path to the presidency in 20 and beyond...could we take Georgia, Arizona and Texas...maybe but generally losing moves the country right not left.

12. I look forward to the day...

Interesting all the nos in this thread.

[MrsCoffee]

26. More than interesting.

[Tipperary]

31. Can only imagine why.

[shanny]

13. Warren at the top of the ticket.

[brooklynite]

14. Has it occurred to you that maybe they don't get along as Pres/VP?

Discussing tickets at this point is meaningless.

[MrsCoffee]

28. Lol.

It seems to have strangely occurred to you.

I mean it’s understandable given how much they seem to despise each other in that photo.

[brooklynite]

15. How IS this a winning ticket?

...since you haven't bothered to provide an explanation?

[cilla4progress]

16. It was

a question?

[diverdownjt]

19. Yes...Yes...Yes

I'd vote for that Dynamic Duo twice.....if they let me.

[brooklynite]

25. No, it wasn't...

"IS this a winning ticket" would be an open question. "How is this NOT a winning ticket" is an unsupported assertion.

[Honeycombe8]

36. +1. nt

[Iggo]

17. Looks good to me.

[pnwmom]

18. I think Trump would reveal his hate in all its fullness if this were the ticket,

alienating millions of women, including significant numbers of Republican women.

[tclambert]

20. What? Trump loves women! As long as they are 9s or 10s on his scale of beauty.

So no fatties and no uggos. Helps if they can't speak English very well. 'Cause he really doesn't want to hear them talk.

[TwilightZone]

32. He already did that in the 2016 cycle.

And millions of women voted for him anyway, somewhat inexplicably.

If what he did prior to the 2016 election didn't alienate them, I'm not confident that more of the same suddenly will. He's a known quantity, as is his misogyny.

[DesertRat]

23. Works for me!

The anti-Trump in every way!

[Politicub]

27. A dream team!

[aeromanKC]

29. Not worth risking the Senate with an (R) Gov. in MA

But yes yes and yes with Harris on the ticket!! Half of a power ticket indeed.

[beachbum bob]

33. pretty easy...to say why it is not

not enough to attract center of america, the center elects the presidents

[Polybius]

34. Because for some reason, two firsts on the same ticket would never happen

It wouldn't bother me one bit, but it just won't happen. If either one of them is the nominee, their running mate will be a white male.

[Honeycombe8]

35. Not.

1. 2 females (the country hasn't even gone for 1 female in the 2nd banana seat yet)
2. 2 "coastal elites," as regarded by middle Americans (many Americans have a view of the Dem. Party as representing the two coasts, and not representing the rest of America, much less relating to them or understanding them)
3. 2 fairly unknown people, nationally.
4. One of them has no executive experience (Warren).
5. 2 Senators (Senators have a hard time getting elected as President; lots of fodder for attacks, and being in the Senate is a group effort, not executive experience)
6. 2 Senators who have reputations of being left of moderate. They represent the same constituency, I think, which is not the majority of the Democratic Party.
7. 2 Senators, neither of whom brings to the election a state or geographic area that isn't going to vote Democratic, anyway.

37. I can get onboard... two strong and intelligent women (and badass, to boot). n/t
