Biden advisers debate Stacey Abrams as out-of-the-gate V.P. choice

Can you imagine having this racist dimwit porker a heartbeat away from the presidency. Biden would clinch the election for Trump with her as VP.

Via Axios

Close advisers to former Vice President Joe Biden are debating the idea of packaging his presidential campaign announcement with a pledge to choose Stacey Abrams as his vice president.

Why it matters: The popular Georgia Democrat, who at age 45 is 31 years younger than Biden, would bring diversity and excitement to the ticket — showing voters, in the words of a close source, that Biden “isn’t just another old white guy.”

  • But the decision poses considerable risk, and some advisers are flatly opposed. Some have pointed out that in a Democratic debate, he could be asked why no one on the stage would be a worthy running mate.
  • Advisers also know that the move would be perceived as a gimmick.

Biden’s position on the issue couldn’t be learned — we were just told about the advisers’ debate.

  • Biden has discussed selecting a running mate early, a move that one senior Democrat said could hurt him by feeding “an air of inevitability,” CNN reported.
  • Biden’s office declined to comment.

Abrams met Biden in Washington last week to discuss her next political steps, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.

  • Biden requested the lunchtime meeting, per AP.

Abrams narrowly lost her race for Georgia governor last November, but has remained a political star:

  • She delivered Democrats’ response to President Trump’s State of the Union address in January, and has been mentioned as a possible candidate for U.S. Senate.

The big picture: The debate shows some lack of confidence among the Biden team about withstanding attacks for being out of step with the times, and for past positions that are now unpopular in the party.

  • The Rev. Al Sharpton, who stays in close touch with the 2020 race, told me the Abrams move could help Biden by mitigating objections to his treatment of Anita Hill during Justice Clarence Thomas’ confirmation.

Presidential historian Michael Beschloss, author of “Presidents of War,” said that no successful modern non-incumbent presidential candidate has ever announced a V.P. choice long before the primary process.

    • “If Biden were to name his running mate long in advance of the Milwaukee convention, it might be very good politics,” Beschloss told me. “It also might ultimately provide good government. Voters in the primary process deserve to know as much as possible about the future they are opting for.”

It certainly becomes easy to understand why there are no successful (or damn few) jurisdictions run by Prog morons.

Just thinking of this as a seriously considered candidate for high office, courtesy of the Democrat Party , has me ruminating on one word: attenuated.

That’s how Ted Cruz tried to win the nomination, after all – by naming Carly Fiorina. And then she fell off the riser. I’d like to see Stacy Abrams fall off a riser. She’d break the floor.

Carly is smart as a pin and dumb as a bag of rocks. Her biggest problem: she thinks she is entitled to rise to the top without proving her mettle beforehand. Case in point: she got the CEO job at Hewelett-Packard Company because, well, because she was a smart woman and to the board that was quite enough. Plus, they were really behind the glass ceiling bullshit. Anyway, a few years later they fired her for cause (spying on board member communications).

Iska, if you have never seen it, go to Youtube and watch “Scarlett Takes A Tumble.” It is pretty much what you are referencing. Perhaps someone more skilled than I could post it. I have seen people almost pass out laughing at it.

One certainty as the Libtards move further left is their candidates for office will get more controversial and ridiculous. In the ’90’s I was arguing over whether the US would ever elect a black President. Now it almost seems a certainty. It will get worse as the next fool they’ll probably manage to elect will likely be minority, female or transgender, non-citizen, or a combination of the three.

To win the nomination you have to capture the black vote. A typically irresponsible black who doesn’t even pay her bills is being considered for VP. This is what third-world politics looks like.

I am hearing Trump has as high as a 40% possibility with the Black vote this time around. If a Republican gets 18% the Dems cannot win a national election. This is why they are so desperate to import new voters. Latin political culture is degenerate so the Dems are right at home recruiting refugees from the failed states to the south. They will tell them to trust them, they LOVE them and finally, they are the right people to make their beloved socialism work.

I would be willing to bet that there is a considerable clohort of black America that would not vote for this steaming pile to be VP………Biden et al may be that stupid and cloying but black America is on the verge of telling the democrat to f*ck off. They have done nothing for them except treat them as children.

OK…flame away….

Lord have mercy! Aunt Jemima in the White House! All she needs is a hanky on her head. This gap-toothed moronic, hate-filled sow would be a perfect representative of America in 2019. This is incredible. That somebody could seriously consider such a person to be governor of any state is a crime. To nominate her for the vice presidency? Treason black as hell, no pun intended.

Well, to even consider an aging pervert/pedophile as a presidential candidate is ghastly. The caliber of democrats running for president is so low that the dirt UNDER the bottom of the barrel is better than what is out there. Sad days indeed when a dung beetle has more integrity and intelligence than any of the political contenders.

We know that’s one of the two ways Trump can win:
1. the dems run someone so repugnant to the majority of the country that we have “no choice.”
2. 3rd party lefty splits the dem vote
