#1 You just can't make this up. But, let's talk "diversity":

Lizzy Warren: over 70 (years of age)
Joey Biden: over 70
Bernie Sanders (I) (LOL): looks like over 83
Mike (Michael) Bloomberg: over 70
Hillary (just 'cuz): over 70

Tusli Gabbard: need not apply
(FNU) Buttegeig (sp?): need not apply

#8 I suspect very few people go to Vegas to lose and leave empty handed. Other than the 'Boxcar' it's Going to be difficult for Biden to find a willing running mate.

Biden is little more than an E-type silhouett. A place holder. I doubt he will ever face the Orange Man in a televised debate.

Joe running for President (even on life support) takes the pressure off Hunter, buying him precious time. We all know how putting off the hand of justice in Washington works. I doubt this is any exception.

#9 Odds that Joe is replaced by the end of the convention?

I figure that one of the early primary drop-outs will be resurrected.

#10 They can have the Donk governor of New Mexico. She's a Bernie type of gal.

#13 #6 She would have the average American living in an elephant sh!t hut within 2 years.

If our idiot-leaders don't end these lockdowns soon, she'll be given a flying start at putting us all in elephant sh!t huts within 2 years.

#14 So Biden should base his choice for VP only on the basis of Race and Gender? (And which if the 700+ Genders?)
No Racism or Sexism there....

#15 Name a woman of color that can deliver a state that won't already go to the DEMs? That is the one thing a VP is supposed to do.

#16 It isn't about that, ruprecht. It is all about the virtue signaling and then launching investigation into the winner after you lose while calling them and everyone that supported them racist.

Who is obviously planning on running because she's lost a ton of weight recently. And she only has a ton left to go!

#19 That would check all KINDS of blocks for them, wouldn't it?

#20 It doesn't make any difference who Joe picks because he isn't going to win. When ValJar revealed that Big Mike won't be on the ticket, that means that nobody thinks Biden has a snowball's chance in hell. Stacy must understand that she will not be vice president but thinks she can parley the name recognition into some future advantage. Joe might as well let her because he is not going to find anyone who can help him win and is willing to try. Think about it. Who was willing to run with McGovern in 1972? Who was willing to run with Mondale in 1984 or with Dukakis in 1988? Nobody wants to be on that kind of a bandwagon when it crashes and burns.

#21 I'll take Forgotten Losers for $600, Alex.

A shock therapy survivor

Who was willing to run with Mondale in 1984?
Geraldine (not Flip Wilson's)

Oh, lloyd have mercy

#22 I'm concerned about what the exact meaning of 'signals' may be. Pawing it's hooves and snorting along with faux charges?
