Sources close to Sen. Joe Manchin, an independent of West Virginia, say he’s considering re-registering as a Democrat and throwing his hat into the ring to run for president.
This doesn't surprise me, and this is the type of thing that would give the media and the GOP more fodder for attacks, as would an open convention.
Sorry, I won't go on. I'm trying not be a doomer right now, but it's really hard.
I'll vote for whomever is on the blue ticket. Hopefully Harris now.
OK, I take it back. We can do this. The support for Harris is phenomenal, and the fund raising since the announcement has also sparked.
And as Heather Cox Richardson just pointed out in her impromptu live session, Biden's timing of this announcement couldn't be better or more damaging to the GOP. They have an old, senile, incompetent man heading their ticket and his VP pick is a very loud misogynist and separatist.
Stopping Project 2025 is paramount, and Harris as our president will do this in style.
@goodreedAJ That’s better
Another thing that Heather mentioned in the session was that now that Biden has left the race, he can focus on his job as president for the next six months in ways that he wouldn't have been able to had he stayed in the race. It puts him above the fray, so he'll have a much freer hand to do what he needs to do in service to the country. So yes, there is a silver lining here that makes Harris a really strong candidate and Biden and even better president than he already was (and he already was pretty darn good).
And yeah, I really like the whole prosecutor going after the felon angle that Joyce Vance pointed out in her latest Substack letter. That's good.
Whew. I feel better now.
Great point, there is still a lot to be done in even a short space of time, perhaps on Tuesday he can tell netanyahu to change tactics for a start
