I think most of us had this ticket back in February (latest). Nevertheless, interested to finally have the announcment.
This will be more than interesting both within the Democratic Party and with the voters in the general election.

See, and she brings nothing to the ticket. Black and woman, but nothing of substance.
We'll see.....

Vogue cover? Cosmopolitan? Hollywood's gushing admiration?...I can't see this bringing a tidal wave of fence-sitters. They already had California's Electorals... The Dems would have been wiser to choose a Texan or Floridian...and someone who actually is slightly more moderate. An Ambassador? A Former Governor? Joe sort of stumbled into this. The Dems embrace the Dementia ticket.

But is that the way it works? If he is gone before November, she automatically moves to the top of the ticket?

Well she admitted busting blacks for dope before she admitted it was part of her Jamaican heritage.

I think that's the way the DNC will make it work. Sanders will bitch, but the DNC will convince Sanders Harris is the best bet and offer him input as to who the VP pick should be (i.e., someone Squad-ish/uber-progressive). GIves the Dems a ticket which satisfies the Dem coalition and makes a super-progressive more palatable to the general electorate b/c that super-prog person would be the VP.
Gutfeld was correct the other day; if Harris moves up and the Dems pick another woman for the VP slot Trump will be in trouble.

I had to look it up - but damn, she left the race even before the primaries started. When she left, there was easily a dozen people still running.
Wikipedia says she got a grand total of 844 primary votes. That puts her place about FIFTEENTH.
It won't be JUST Sanders that will be pissed - Warren, Buttigieg, Yang, Klobuchar, BLOOMBERG - lot of big money will be justifiably pissed.

True. But Warren will probably get SecState, Klobuchar another cabinet post, Yang chief of staff?, Bloomberg left out (except his wallet). All will

On second thought, Kamala is the complete opposite of Grandpa Joe. She's black; she's a woman; she's young; she can form complete sentences.
So maybe she's a good pick after all.

Hahah!
In all seriousness, I think the pitch to Warren will be that while Harris will have to be out and about leading Warren will be the policy wonk behind the scenes for the administration.
