With Joe Biden dropping out of the race, who will replace him?
Kamala Harris is who Joe endorses and the likely choice, BUT can she win against Trump. No one is sure.
So who can win against Trump...
Josh Shapiro ... but most likely can be Kamala's running mate...
Gretchen Whitmer ... the Democrats should dump Kamala, and bring her as the presidential nominee, with Josh Shapiro as the VP candidate...
Then maybe, just maybe, the Democrats will win...
Starting over has it's own set of obstacles with regards to the campaign funds already raised from what I have heard. Kamala has name recognition among those that don't keep up with politics on a daily basis, which is likely most of the country. I don't watch much news anymore but made an exception today and there seems to be jubilation among the democrats that Biden is gone. Some big time donors had stopped giving after Bidens dismal performance. Democrats were digging in to hold their noses and vote for a walking zombie to keep Trump out of office. The fear was that it wouldn't be enough to get voters off their couches to vote come November.
The Democrats seem revitalized now with this opportunity. The VP choice will be very important as we all know, with focus likely on who can draw the most votes in the battle states as it is the EC not the popular vote that matters.
Personally, I'm at a point where I'd rather have viable options to vote for over "beating Trump". There was never any guarantee Biden was going to win anyway, and I had zero confidence he would be mentally and or physically able to do the job should he win. So I'm happy over this turn of events and I'm Independent.
