It's going to be Susan Rice for VP

[Awsi Dooger]

67. Biden has to think big picture and long term

Susan Rice is superior to Kamala Harris. That should be the only variable, not dread about Benghazi or some son.

Harris is a flip flopping cheerleader type who goes along with the themes of the moment. That is why she jumped into that dance. That's why she is immediately prone to making a stupid overreactive comment. If she runs on her own the swing voters will see right through her.

Our party has had a dearth of excellent candidates emerge at the top. That's why it was so meaningless that 20 -- or whatever -- sought the nomination. One after another could be thrown out because they simply weren't special enough to get through a general election against GOP onslaught. Susan Rice did not run but she is that caliber. This is the type of person we need to elevate, to give an artificial boost via the vice presidential slot.

Otherwise if Biden only serves 4 years we're stuck with the same pool we had this time. Yes, they are great Democrats. They earn raves here. Who cares? I am looking at this from a handicapper perspective. They can't win. Susan Rice has that extra gear. I know damn well the people in my living room during those debate watching parties would have been super impressed with her and felt that she was plenty warm enough. Kamala Harris, in contrast, is going to come across as a phony.

This should not be a difficult choice if Joe Biden throws away the short term fear.
