I see Kamala as a great VP for both Biden and Bernie. She was my fave, as well.

Warren drops out of Democratic Primary
- Thread starter Mr.Awesome
- Start date
I think she will take time.
I also don't know if an endorsement adds much. I feel like Bernie already peeled off most of the Warren->Sanders voters around the time she hit that polling wall pre-Iowa.
Because policy stance isn't the same as ability to do things. She believes in being effective. It's not out of the question she could get a major concession from Biden that would ensure more progressive legislation or oversight from someone more assured to win. That's effective.
i wonder why bernie wasn't able to build a strong coalition. perhaps it will forever remain a mystery.
She didn't go to the center nearly enough. Sure should have run just to the left of Biden instead of just to the right of Bernie. She was never going to win over that cult.
She will look terrible if she endorses him over Bernie given that just two days ago she said this about all the Democrats endorsing Biden
Warren warns against Biden's 'Washington insider' endorsements
After her own dispiriting finishes in the early nominating states, Warren is verging on being left behind.

The best part about all the "Warren is splitting the progressive vote!" takes is they're admitting that Warren supporters were progressive all along, which has definitely not always been the case!
Except when she had a literal polling lead over Bernie.
I was a fan of Warren but saw her god awful campaigning and her lack of even trying to appeal to any type of minority besides rich white women and switched
You were more than good enough to win and be president Liz, unfortunately it just didn't happen.
It would have to be a gigantic concession like support for M4A or student loan forgiveness to mean a damn.
I like Warren a lot, wish she had done much better in this than she has, but it's long past time she dropped out. VP seems like a poor choice for her though, both in regards to her strengthening either a Biden or Sanders ticket. She would be far better utilized in a cabinet position or just as a Senator.
I voted for Bernie in 2016 and I voted for him again two days ago, but I actually hope that she endorses Biden at this point. It's time to move on and try to win the general election. Endorsing Bernie could only further splinter the democratic party. We need to unite to get Trump out of office. I hope that all Bernie supporters do the same, but if not, enjoy 4 more years of Trump.
She'd be an EXCELLENT VP choice for Biden.

The fact that the drop didn't come with an endorsement is really strange and interesting to me. Everyone else dropped and then backed someone else, so clearly there's some hesitation from her campaign on who to endorse, and how / when to do it.
One of them should, yes. The big thing that was possibly causing a contested convention was a second moderate lane candidate restricting Biden from hitting the threshold or moderates as a whole peeling off enough to keep Bernie from gaining a big enough lead, it felt like. With two, one should decisively take a lead now, and Biden has a more favorable path with the remaining states, but Bernie can still do it. It's not over for either, yet.

Really living up to that username
please, I really don't like him as our head person in the senate.
I'll be pissed if she doesn't endorse Bernie, just the same as I would have been pissed at Bernie if he dropped and didn't endorse her.
In the end, I'm just glad she dropped.

Ehhh, if she was offered a job with an actual large amount of power, or hell even VP, I could see her switching
"feuding" means literally nothing in politics if they have the same goal. Warren might value the fact taht Biden is the clear frontrunner right now and want to get some power while she can. (not to imply this is bad, these are all politicians though)
Damn shame she couldn't get the traction she needed, I would have preferred to vote for her over Bernie or Biden, but it is what it is once it became clear she wasn't viable.
Wonder who she'll endorse, I honestly don't blame her if she goes for Biden at this point.

Me too. I hope she gets a role with whoever wins. She is whip smart but also politically savvy.
She's probably still salty that Bernie called her a liar in that debate. I thought i read somewhere that Bernie told his people to be nice to her last night. Maybe he's trying to curry some favor there knowing that her endorsement is a toss up.

Or maybe instead you can fuck off?
Her supporters initially switched to Pete because a lot of them wanted somebody who was to the left of Biden but to the right of Bernie. When she endorsed M4A, her numbers dropped a ton.
