Her odds on PredictIt of being the VP nominee have fallen from a high of 25% barely over a week ago to a low of 4% yesterday.

Meanwhile, the rubes over at CNN, in an article published just 2 days ago, put her in second place behind only Kamala Harris.

I don't know how anybody can take anything published or spoken by anybody at CNN seriously.

Biden will just end up picking Barack Obama anyhow.

As for CNN, I give them full credit for being able to switch from politics to reporting hard news last night. They have solid street reporters that, when allowed to do so, are willing and able to get their hands and feet dirty covering breaking news straight up. I appreciated their coverage last night when Fox was floundering around and MSNBC was still spinning politics. CNN was much better than the others.

Biden would be a fool....check that....more of a fool if he picked Kamala Harris. What does that bring him? I think he has California and the black vote pretty well sewn up. Shes an abrasive woman with a questionable road to get where she got.

Or as Joe Biden refers to him: "the clean, articulate colored fella".
This is a pro-Harris/Walz account

I know, I know.

When Biden shortened the VP candidate list to make it so he now has to choose a woman, Barack is literally Biden's only escape from that promise that people will accept. It's soon to be June 1st and there isn't going to be a traditional convention due to Covid. He's running out of time and candidates. Obama will be offered up as the great healer the longer the racial unrest continues.

Maybe Oprah will reconsider.

Agreed. CNN has done a tremendous job.

One thing I really don't care for is how they keep bringing Klobuchar on every time Minneapolis is the focal point, and how they're pushing her as a viable VP pick. She's literally the most uninspiring choice anyone could think of. Also, is it even legal/acceptable for Biden to pick Obama as VP? That seems like it would be impossible to pull off...

After reading this, I checked CNN out of curiosity. All I saw was coverage of Ohio on the screen while Kamala Harris was on the phone rambling on about racism. I quickly shut it back off.

From fading to supernovae...
Dr. Jill Biden, the former vice president’s wife, canceled a digital event with Klobuchar and coronavirus first-responders. A source on Biden’s team said that this decision was made “partly because we need to avoid her.”
New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.
