At the the beginning, with not knowing much about some of the candidates and not knowing who else will throw their hat in the ring - she's my personal favorite after Biden. She won my heart at the Kavarape hearings. I also like Harris quite a bit as well.

election after looking at the map. Even though she was from a neighboring state, I did not know much about her.

I would like to see her on the ticket either at the top or the bottom, but I don't like the balance to the ticket.

If Biden gets it, I would think about Abrams in the VP slot. I would get her up into the firewall states giving speeches right now.

I think Klobuchar and Booker would be an excellent ticket as well.

Either running of not, he is and will always be a huge asset to the Democratic party and people of our country.

Biden should hold all of Clinton's states.

Who would help out for the firewall states? Klobuchar?

Our dear friends at Rasmusen seem to be sending a discreet message.

Biden would be a terrible candidate...unless he was willing to fill the veep slot again. He did a good job there.
