The majority of their own voters want this: Honestly, ignoring the Democratic levels (I think that a majority of that 2/3rds would still vote blue no matter who), the Independent vote is the real damning number. The idea that less than 1/5 Independents wants you to be the nominee is a death knell for your chances. --- Not changing until Shelton Benjamin wins the WHC Started: Jan. 10. 2009 http://myanimelist.net/profile/fantheflames ...

Why, I'm not sure. if you believe somethings off with the media, and youve only seen anonymous second and third party sources.why would there have to be something to it just because you keep hearing it?

The guys I work with who like "sources" similar to NewsMax or perhaps NewsMax itself constantly whip out their phones and say various things have happened or about to happen (like Pelosi was arrested for ripping up Trumps state of the Union that one year) None of it has EVER happened. None of it. I saw someone link something from twitter on discord last night that also said he had dropped out.

Hexenherz posted... It would be rather gross if Harris stayed in, I feel like she hasn't been prominent enough in the media to be relevant and many people weren't excited about her as VP to begin with. Gross? She's the VP and has been campaigning with him. She's been been on a lot of speaking/campaigning tours lately, people just don't know or acknowledge her doing so. Our media also scrutinized her like no other VP in a negative light while she was doing working on Biden's behalf, yet made sure to undersell what she was doing (Biden has mentioned it in past speeches, it's a lot of foreign policy work from what I remember). She'd also be able to tout the success of his administration as someone who is a part of it. As for people not being excited about her, that's always going to be the case regardless of who the nominee is. There's not some mythical Dem candidate who will quell infighting. Our primaries show us there will always be bitter feelings and strife, I don't see a convention 1-2 months before early voting starts being an exception to this. There's definitely going to be bitter feelings from those who actually wanted the Biden/Harris ticket, not saying they won't ultimately vote, however voters can and do find personal reasons to not vote. And this non-Harris candidate would need to spend time building a campaign/national volunteer staff, creating, reserving time for, and putting ads out there, and then actually campaign so people could learn who they are as all the most popular suggestions, as far as I'm aware, have said they're not going to do it. So barring someone like Newsom or Whitmer going back on their word, it's going to be someone with very little to no national name recognition. --- My metal band, Ivory King, has 2 songs out now - allmylinks.com/ivorykingtx (all of our links there so you can choose which one you'd prefer to use) ...
