Warren/Mayor Pete is Dream Ticket stuff.

ha, I just said nearly this exact same thing elsewhere.

Asked at #CNNTownHall why he saw X-rated film w/his mom, Hickenlooper says he didn’t realize how graphic movie was and he planned to see it with friend. Home from college, he was about to bolt during dinner. He asked if she wanted to join. “So I took my mother to see Deep Throat”

OK, you guys are pretty smart. It was indeed Buttigieg—who on the one hand is very much in his element among the self-selected audience at a 538 live podcast @ NYU. But on the other hand, we've done quite a few live shows and have not seen many reactions like that. https://t.co/nmsoaVot7b

buttigiegentum

wonder if he’ll get enough free media over the balance of this year to make his candidacy viable, and does that even matter if activists start flocking, these questions have no answers

If the campaign press take a shine to him, as they appear to be doing, it would boost his profile considerably. The flip side of that is that they'll then tear him down because they can.

I think America is ready to hop on the Butti train.

lol

That mullet is plausible.

so now the chatter is about Biden Shocking the Press with a VP nominee, and it's...Stacey Abrams.

shiyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyet

does stacey abrams know about this?

Waking her up now iirc

Everything I know about Stacey Abrams involves her sticking to some kind of plan/outline she's set up for her career, and being a veep for Biden seems at odds with all the rest of it.

big if true

Trump will nickname her Stacey LAMEbrams though, america couldn’t survive it

good luck usa

hmm idk at this stage

Seems like a bad idea to me but I am not new to being wrong

Fuck you, Biden.

Abrams is needed in Georgia.

Yep.

how normal is it to be discussing a running mate this far ahead of even the primaries? seems desperate

Not just Abrams! NYT:

Among the people Mr. Biden’s close allies have discussed for the role are Stacey Abrams, the former Georgia House minority leader who narrowly lost a race for governor last year, and Ms. Harris and Mr. O’Rourke, if their campaigns appear to flag in the coming months.

leave Stacey alone, she has work to do

yeah, exactly. run on your own merits for a while (like the rest of the field is doing) before trying to spackle over your deficiencies with a running mate

if biden runs on his own merits he's gonna run out of road v quickly

clearly

would be great if Abrams made a public statement saying "sorry the Senate is more important"

vote for me, joe biden, a guaranteed one-term president

Biden’s top advisers float 2 unprecedented steps to address his age and satisfy Dems’ thirst for change

- a 1-term pledge, to which Biden himself is strongly resistant

- an early VP choice, maybe not immediately but well before Iowa@jmartNYT & me >https://t.co/cqMq4VgXhW

man, Biden's already demonstrating the shrewd, savvy instincts that made him unstoppable in 1988 and 2008.

A one-term president is a crippled president. His advisers have mulch for brains.

yall desperate to drag biden huh

desperate? he drags himself

biden's already demonstrating the shrewd, savvy instincts that encouraged him to be extremely creepy towards women at public events for decades

honestly I don't mind the running mate idea *in general* and it would actually be neat if more people did it. but being the only one to do it is sus as hell

not sure if I'm included in that "yall" but I was genuinely wondering if there was a precedent for VP talk at this stage. The Cruz/Fiorina announcement was the end of april 2016 and he suspended his campaign a week later.

The stupidity and arrogance of thinking Abrams and Harris have more to lose by not accepting his generous offer amuses the hell out of me. What noblesse oblige, whitey!

^^^

pulling a stunt lie a one-term pledge or an early VP pick would be such a sign of weakness at the outset. like why would the "frontrunner" do something desperate looking?

like

imagine being an advisor to biden and thinking it's his age that's gonna be the real issue and not getting #metoo'ed into the stratosphere

Or:

1. His age.
2. His color
3. His history of confusing "foreign policy experience" with wisdom

imagine being an advisor to biden and thinking it's his age that's gonna be the real issue and not getting #metoo'ed into the stratosphere

are there any stories out there (other than fucking up the Thomas confirmation) or is this based on photos?

I would only get behind a Biden run if he put F-boms in each and every one of his public statements. I still wouldn't vote for him in the primaries but there would at least be entertainment value in him being there.

just the photos. the many, many photos.
