Harris sounds like the logical choice. Seat is safe AF.
Harris is going to be the VP is a male wins the nomination. She is the far and way obvious choice for all the white dudes
Baker could appoint a temporary GOP replacement for Warren, but a special election would occur within a few months.
Of course, if the legislature senses any danger of losing the seat, they'll probably use their veto-proof majorities to pass one of those same-party laws over Baker's veto. Remind him of his place.
It would be foolish to abandon a safe Senate seat for that post.
Kamala is the VP nominee when Beto gets the nom. I've been a proponent of Beto/Kamala from the beginning
This has to be one of the craziest things that happened to the Dems before the midterms.
Warren's seat is probably safe but people gonna be reminded of Scott Brown.
I don't want to lose Warren to a ceremonial role. I want her writing ALL the policy in the senate.
Leave baby in daycare and continue being a boss in the Senate.
I just wanted the senate investigation to finish first. Gillibrand came of like she wanted to take him out to prevent him from running for president. It's a bad look, especially after the news about her problems with sexual harassment in her office. I don't have to like what Gillibrand did, even if I think Franken should've resigned.
Unfortunately the NZ massacre kind of messed up Beto's launch on Friday so he didn't announce numbers out of respect for the victims. I'd expect him to announce some numbers tomorrow or Tuesday. He hasn't sent out any more fundraising emails since Thursday
Lol, if this isn't a neon sign saying "Harris is my VP!" I don't know what is.
Like it's borderline blatant
To be fair, every interview with Pete B, 24 well considered policy positions drop out of his mouth, whereas Beto has no opinion on critical issues like Brexit or the best liniment for cramped calves.
Note that I still think Beto could win with the tabula rasa strategy.
We're still waiting to hear what exactly Gillibrand "did" to him.
He chose to resign because there were multiple accusers... and because the vast majority of the caucus wanted him gone. She was the first to call for his resignation, but she wasn't the last by a long shot.
This lingering resentment toward her, even if you're oh-so-enlightened and approved of his resignation, is unseemly, especially since she was right to demand the resignation of a serial molester.
I wish she'd handled shit better in her own office, but that doesn't in any way make her retroactively wrong about Franken.
I mean, the VP pick doesn't have to be a senator (*a senator running for president, to be more precise*). In fact, it probably won't be. Plenty of smart women out there!
I think he will lay out his thoughts on every critical issue in more detail on March 30th for his official launch. I'm not that concerned about it at this point because I assume he will still have the same positions as his Senate run on most things that matter. Also things will get much more fleshed out during debates
Ah thanks. Will be interesting to see numbers but that's a pretty classy act
You know, this is probably the most cogent post you've ever made.
I think Duckworth would be the best VP pick

You've read all my posts? I feel sorry for you. Thank, tho!
Love ha.
Tammy/Tammy would be great. I'd be worried about the WI seat though.
Beto/Ivanka 2020
Not just unemployed; a loser. ;)
I just looked Samantha Power up and it looks like she's ineligible unfortunately. She's Irish originally and didn't become a US citizen until she was 23.
This was the same position the media took regarding Obama initially.
Shoot, that's too bad, she's awesome. And Susan Rice will probably (and hopefully) run for the Senate.
I'm sure there are binders full of other, less high-profile women with serious fopo chops the Dem candidate could pick from, though.
People mad about Gillibrand "taking out" Franken act like Franken wasn't replaced by a female Senator who votes the exact same way he did, serves on the exact same committees he did, won by a wider margin than he did, and has the noticeable improvement of not groping people in public.
In fact, he was. All of those things.

I don't think Susan Rice is the one, even though I like her a lot.
