It's Kamala Harris

Yes, CBS just broke in with it.

Put your bullshit aside and support her! Support them. We need Trump and Pence OUT!

And NBC

Big moment. I think it's great!

She's just so shallow and superficial.

Karine Jean-Pierre will be her chief of staff! (she's a lez with excellent personal style) YASSSS QUEEN!

Biden will carry California!

She was really the only logical choice when you think about it.

Good choice. Glad it's Kamala.

She will be great going after Trump and Pence. She is a really good attacker. I do hope she loses that big guffaw after she thinks she's said something humorous.

Yay!

I can’t stand Kamala and I’m from California.

Preet for AG!!!!

Maya Rudolph may be the second happiest woman in America right now.

Is that a wish list R12 or did he announce that?

YahMO be with there in November! Thank you Baby Jesus!

In other astounding news, the sky is still blue.

LOL, R13. At least some good can come of this.

The Democrats didn’t want Kamala during the primaries suddenly they were in love with her. Disappointed.

Prediction:

Trump will attack her as being a "far left California progressive who wants to abolish the police"

The actual far left will attack her as a "closet Republican and racist cop"

She a floor wax AND a dessert topping!

YUM-00000000000 !!!!!!!!!!

Your concern is noted R19. Maybe Tulsi can run for something else?

Great choice. She'll take no prisoners and will tell Mitch The Bitch to go fuck himself when the Dems take over the Senate. Frankly, I think if the Dems to take over both houses Mitch will retire.

Can't wait to see her & Pence go at it in the debate. She'll wipe the floor with that piece of KKKristian shit.

R12 Great idea!

Not concern R21

I think she's great.

I just think it's funny that our politics are in such a place that candidates (and KH is not the only one) can be attacked from both sides. I mean AOC said something nice about Biden after Bernie dropped out, and the Twitter Nuts were all screaming that she sold out and was turning into a right winger.

Yeesh. Terrible.

Kamala is also Asian?

Let's choose Kamala's inaugural ball outfit because she looks great!

Oh ok. I see the direction the Dems are headed in. Good luck with that.

Her mother is Indian R27

Hence the name. (Kamala Devi)

R4, save it for january

I already called in.

This is a time to drink shots and celebrate.

AA.

It will be interesting to see how BLM reacts to a half-Indian woman who has put many American black men in jail and is descended from slave traders, but it's not as though we were spoilt for choice.

So who becomes the Senator from California?

R27: Her mother is Indian.

Susan Rice congratulates Kamala:

Now that this part is over, and remember Harris said yes when he offered her the slot, let's do everything we can to get these two elected as President and Vice-President. No more excuses. There is now an African-American woman as the VP nominee. Let's support them both and get the maniacal sociopath and his band of corrupt merry men the fuck out of our government!!!

R35, at this rate probably Nina Turner.

It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us.

Lincoln Project didn't waste any time doing a Biden/Harris ad.

I'm just gonna support Joe. Her I'll tolerate, unless she ups her game, supports the candidate for President and works for his agenda. This is not president by proxy. She's a constitutional requirement. Nothing more until she earns it on her own.

Nicolle Wallace: "This is the pick that scared the Trump team the most."

Diana Ross, R35

Senator Markle, at your service.

R7, that's what Louise Sorel said about Lauren Koslow when she screentested against Lois Chiles and Deborah Shelton for the recast role of Kate Roberts on DAYS.

Actually MM is a lot like Kamala. She's beautiful, ambitious, and her resume is fairly thin. DL should love her!

Is she black enough to please the ladies of "The View"?

Sure Meghan r45.

I can't wait for the Kamalot Era!!!

[quote]Nicolle Wallace: "This is the pick that scared the Trump team the most."

Did Wallace name any Trump sources who say why they are worried about Kamala?

Better hire a food taster Joe, cause this one isn't going to be happy with just VP.

One wonders, if ol Hilly had picked a black man or woman, would she have won?

[quote] The Democrats didn’t want Kamala during the primaries suddenly they were in love with her. Disappointed.

Republicans have long been terrified of her and they still are. At least they are consistent about something. Thrilled.

[quote] Better hire a food taster Joe, cause this one isn't going to be happy with just VP.

Nonsense! I will be completely content merely existing in the shadow of an old white man.

I'm almost tempted to tune in to FOX News tonight, just to see Tucker, Sean and Laura try their damndest not to use the n-word.

Trumplestiltskin is already trying to brand her as "Phony Kamala"

Even his nicknames are ineffective

Dave Wasserman:

This choice is probably the most universally well-received among Dems he could have made, and the process was impressively leak-free.

How do you think the Republicans are going to come after her?

Amy Walter (Cook Political Report):

Kamala Harris is the rare pick who is both safe/conventional as well as historic.

I wasn't impressed with her at the Brett Kavanagh hearing. She peppered him with questions which he easily sidestepped by pretending he didn't understand them and she couldn't get him to answer. She ended up rolling her eyes and huffily moving on.

I can't wait for the debate with Pence. He'll wet his pants and will certainly start crying.

Her tough on crime past will play well with the swings who might otherwise be concerned that a blank woman might be too leftist/liberal.

She was actually my choice for pres onitislly so IG course I’ll totally down with it, although the political infighter in me thinks someone even more middle of the road would be better for the swing votes.

A first though that a SW Asian is a candidate! Another historic step in the right direction.

Trump contributed $6,000 to her when she ran for Attorney General.

blank = black

Fucking autocorrect lol

I [italic]was[/italic] that little VP.

Didn't the rethuglicans desperately want him to choose Rice, I assume because they felt like they had enough on her to fuck it up for Biden?

What did they have on Rice, R67?

Benghazi 2.0, r68

Serious question: Why do VP selections always prompt a bunch of histrionic responses? Does it really fucking matter who the #2 is when the 2 candidates hold similar positions?

For Democrats, the VP is nothing more than a figurehead. Biden, Edwards, Gore...you have to go back to LBJ to find a Democratic VP whose selection meant anything.

Kamala is THAT GIRL!

Because there's a chance that Biden might not last very long in office, r70, and whoever his VP is might well end up as POTUS before his term is up.

She came in second in all the polling. Also, a percentage of black men are saying they will not vote, if biden does not pick a black woman (picks a white woman). We do not lose a senate seat because gavin newsom can appoint in California.

Does this pick piss off progressives? No, but they are not as enthusiast as if it were warren.

Does this pick help with the rust belt and white men? No, but this is what Biden is suppose to be strong at.

At the end of the day, they went with the person who is young enough to run for president in 2024.

So Ted Lieu, Adam Schiff, Katie Porter - who else could be appointed Senator?

Swalwell

I want Schiff for Atty General

If her dad is Jamaican, does she count as "African American"? I'm not being racist, bitches! I really want to know.

Karen Bass

Newsom wont give the seat to a white man. Swalwell will have to win it in an election.

[quote] For Democrats, the VP is nothing more than a figurehead.

Don't forget that the VP also holds the position of President of the US Senate.

Barack Obama:

I’ve known Senator @KamalaHarris for a long time. She is more than prepared for the job. She’s spent her career defending our Constitution and fighting for folks who need a fair shake. This is a good day for our country. Now let’s go win this thing.

The Dems are outraged by racism and sex pests, yet champion supporters of bigots/bigotry.

Obama picked her, so that's good. I think he is thinking about 2024 and the future of our country. The Republican party are fucking fascist nazi.

Register to VOTE people.

Plan now, how you are going to deal with voter suppression in your state and district/county.

VOTE all Republicans OUT of office.

Biden has to do something about the Hispanic vote. I don't think they are supporting him very much. It's odd.

R85 I’m not sure he’s done much outreach to them

A significant amount of Latinos are Conservative, likewise South Asians in the UK.

They tend to go into small business and don’t want to pay (any) tax. They are also quite colourist and hare black people.

R87 Even with Trump's stance on immigration and the treatment of immigrants in these camps? There's one in Virginia that is full of the Corena virus. It's why Virginia's numbers went up. You would think Hispanics would care?

most likely, the pope is going to endorse joe biden, who is a catholic. This will rally the Hispanic vote.

Usually, the pope stays out of it. This is a new pope and these are dark times.
