I know. All of this is just really bumming me out - I'm with Wiggum from last night. nm - Turd Ferguson Mar 4, 07:09 1
- Agree completely with your IM (with the exception of Booker). -- nm - JaxSean Mar 4, 07:26
After yesterday, I have to agree. I think she announces the end of her campaign on Friday and ends up endorsing Biden. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Mar 4, 07:05 20
- I think she waits until the nomination is secured by someone before endorsing them. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 4, 07:12 1
  - I agree. No upside for her. -- nm - pmb Mar 4, 07:21
- Biden? I have no clue but others here said Sanders would get it or she wouldn't endorse at all -- nm - Bacon Mar 4, 07:07
- What does that do to her progressive bona fides if she endorses Biden? - ty97 Mar 4, 07:06 16
  - I don't think it's as simple as progressive vs. not. I think the longer she stays in the clearer it is she's trying to stop Bernie -- nm - JackDawson Mar 4, 07:35 4
    - If she does not drop out this week, she is 100% trying to stop Bernie which....surprises me. -- (edited) - ty97 Mar 4, 07:37 3
      - That's how amazing she is, she is a liberal but also a pragmatist and recognizes the importance of winning. -- nm - JackDawson Mar 4, 07:39 2
        
        Hmm, I could see that -- nm - ty97 Mar 4, 07:40 1
        
        (I mean, I can relate to that in a lot of ways) -- nm - ty97 Mar 4, 07:40
  - It gives her a job in January in the Admin. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 4, 07:20
  - VP possibility. And I think she takes the pragmatic approach of endorsing Biden as most likely to defeat Trump. But overall, I have no frickin' clue. - ReluctantCynic Mar 4, 07:19 8
    - I don't know why but I can't see him picking her as VP -- nm - ty97 Mar 4, 07:21 7
      - If he wants to bridge a lot of check marks; she's perfect. - Will Hunting Mar 4, 07:24 6
        
        Oh god, bringing the ticket to a total of 150 years?! No thanks. Love ya Liz but let's start preparing some fresh blood. Someone who can run later -- nm - JackDawson Mar 4, 07:36 1
        
        Yeah, need someone younger as VP as a check against Biden's age. -- nm - ty97 Mar 4, 07:38
        
        She's a great pick for him, but I would be surprised if she would be interested. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 4, 07:25 3
        
        My thought is that it would take the promise of a pretty substantial policy portfolio to make it worth her while. -- (edited) - znufrii Mar 4, 07:30 2
        
        Do we have a recent VP example of that? - Strongbad Mar 4, 07:36 1
        
        Cheney holding the reins on foreign policy is the closest I can think of. -- (edited) - znufrii Mar 4, 07:38
  - She has to decide if she wants to get anything done. If she does she’ll endorse. -- nm - spamlet Mar 4, 07:18
