It is non a contest between Trump and Sleepy Uncle Joe.  This should be interesting.

Wonder if Bernie will now have his own shiny private jet. Last time he got a new house.

What about "You don't need ten bullets to kill a Deeaaah" Andrew Cuomo?

Bernie likes the attention and he has flocks of fans.  He's officially an Independent.  Perhaps he'll rerun for president as an Independent vs. Trump and Biden.  Now THAT would be interesting  :)

Doubt it.  The Soros dollars would come to an end.

Market appears to be reacting upward to Sanders dropping out.  I wonder if that is any indication that they feel Trump will beat Biden?

LOL!  Get a picture if you can! 

I met her at two different POA fly ins and she ignored me both times!   It was great!

There’s a lone Bernie sign sagging in the breeze at a local intersection. That someone wanted him in badly enough to use the energy get out of their car and stick it there is behind comprehension. I always wanted to put a sign near it that said “Why?”

Biden signaled this this week when he said they may have to have a virtual convention. He and the DNC have effectively declared that the voting is over, and the coronation shall begin.
 
Bernie was likely told that if he proceeded to force a convention, and risk the LIVES of Americans (read: “Democrat voters”) he will become as big of a pariah as Donald Trump, and would be treated accordingly.  So he opted to exit “on his own terms” (what a joke) vs getting into a fist fight with the biggest bully on the block, the Democrat establishment.

As for VP, the only person I really fear is Tulsi Gabbard, but I don’t see Biden picking her.

Biden is going to go for a far leftist whackadoodle as VP.    Right now Stacy Abrams tops the list.

Keep this in mind, Joe is 78 and in declining mental health.  Sorry leftist, that's a fact. Whoever Joe pick, and if he wins, stands a very good chance of becoming President.    Let this sink in for a few.

My crystal ball is broken, but I suspect that now that he (practically) has the D crown he is likely to return to his more central position.  His far left campaign bullshit was just to acquiesce to the crowds and the media.  I think he'll pick a somewhat left of center VP.  I predict Klobuchar.

Let's be clear about something.  Joe Biden is not, and has never been a "centrist".  Joe Biden is a leftist and is now the presumed nominee for their presidential campaign.   Those that run the DNC (the leftist progressives) will not allow Joe to pick someone they don't like, that's politics.

 Klobuchar brings nothing to the table.  She's from a state that is reliable blue.  And she's not a minority.  The leftist will demand a minority VP pick.  And the DNC knows just as well, if Joe is elected his chances of finishing a first term are against him.   This is the leftist progressive's dream way of getting one of their own into the WH.

I disagree.  I think Biden is committed to the Party's stance on just about everything and will go gleefully down the Far Left Progressive path.

That goes against every bit of conventional wisdom. The far left are already entrenched in the Dems. They don’t need to get more of them.

As with virtually EVERY federal election, the battle is for the squishy middle. That squishy middle is made of moderates, Kennedy democrats, Reagan Democrats, and others like that. They will recoil if a radical lefty is on the ticket.

But they will feel soothed if Biden picks someone that tells the squishy middle “I can vote for him or her.”

Joes right. Biden will come back to the center and pick someone from the center.

Obama. Hillary Clinton. Bill Clinton. Algore.

All ran the General from the middle, well at least as far to the middle they could go. Bill Clinton and his advisor Carville wrote the book on it and its been practiced ever since.

Biden will look like a centrist starting now.

We'll see.  If they move to the middle, the Bernie Bros will stay at home.   

Also, I'll stick to my prediction that the VP pick will be a minority woman.  The leftist have a narrow chance of getting one of theirs in line to the Presidency, and with Joe's declining health, it's a shoe in if by chance they should win.

I meant GOVERN as a Lefty, not run as a Lefty.  Sorry, I wasn't clear.

Funny part is if a Republican came out and said they were going to pick someone because of their race or sex the Press would be all over it. Saying he is a sexist and racist.

Biden comes out and say just that about abut VP and supreme court. I do not here press complaining :)

Yes, we have a HUGE DOUBLE STANDARD and hypocrisy emanating for the Media which is over 95% LEFTIST.  So what else is new?  Democrats are allowed to be Racist and Sexist to "advance" protected classes like Blacks and Women.  That is why Affirmative Action has been allowed to stand for FIFTY YEARS.  No, it is NOT "FAIR".  Life isn't fair, but we have to show their hypocrisy for what it is, TYRANNY and OPPRESSION.
