I'm pretty sure they were working behind the scenes to get Joe to step down. They'll endorse in the very near future.

Our opinions on her are not allowed here.

EarlG just made it clear earlier that we are free to support any Democrat.

No, they aren't. It's support her - or else. I will vote for her - or ANY Democrat as President. I have never voted for a Republican. But, I think we should be allowed to express our opinions or speculation.

So far, so good.

I feel constrained and I think I'll be leaving here to find a more welcome place.

😊

that didn’t punish a poster for expressing a simple benign opinion about a Democrat. That would be Any place but here.

As long as it doesn't appear to be right wing talking points. Once she's nominated, you have to be more careful.

I post my own opinions.

I don’t see them getting attacked too much. And if they do, alert on them and if they’re too rude the comment will be deleted. Now, once we have a nominee, we all have to support them against Trump.

other posters. My innocent post was removed but it’s futile to contest it

So I’d contact him.

But it’s not worth the trouble to me

in 2019.

to be Madam President, deal with it" I may have to reconsider.

Girls team vs. the boys.

Oh we're ready for it, yes we are.

doesn't count anymore. It wouldn't matter what I think.

Harris will wipe up the floor with Trump to such an extent not even his Russian handlers can save him.

I just don’t know if she can overcome being black and female. Some voters are racist and others don’t want to vote for a female. We will see…If she is the nominee I will definitely contribute to her campaign. I will also volunteer. I don’t even want to think about the damage that Trump could do in a second term.

Dark Brandon has laid it out

I feel good about Kamala and like the reaction of the party to her so far.

..watch out donald......

women's rights and, in my mind, that's what will get people to vote for Democrats in November. Women don't want the likes of Ted Cruz and JD Vance deciding whether or not we bear children, bleed out in hospital parking lots or suddenly lose access to abortion pills, contraception and IVF.

scratch since she can use the donations from the Biden/Harris campaign, and I view VP Harris with the same incumbent advantage as President Biden had.

The selection of our candidate's VP will be more critical than ever in this environment.

She’s been endorsed by Joe and I take that seriously. And I think a contested convention will hurt us.

in March and the Democrats had an open convention in CHICAGO. President Nixon was the result.

I pray history doesn't repeat itself.

We can't have an open convention.

Bobby Kennedy had all the momentum going into the convention. He would have likely secured the nomination. Who knows what would have happened after that.

I wanted Joe to stay, he did not.

I’ll vote for a dead dog or the proverbial ham sandwich over the racist, rapist fascist asshole.

But I worry given all the bad blood about Biden stepping aside post-primary that anything that's seen as the DNC just picking a ticket might not be seen as a legitimate enough process to unify the party.

So ideally we would run some kind of contestable process, no one serious challenges her - which seems likely at this point given who has been endorsing her, ultimately Kamala emerges as the victor, picks a VP (cough Shapiro) and then we all move on to kicking Trump's ass.
