I had the 17th, Jolly had the 25th… So that part’s a tie. Quick, Jolly, who will be the VP candidate?

If it's Kamala at the head of the ticket, Shapiro.

Don't think the country is at a two woman ticket. And I think they need Pennsylvania.

No, I meant that the Michigan Muslims do not vote for a ticket that has somebody named Shapiro on it.

They'll have Kamala put a scarf over her head, get on her knees and point her ass towards Mecca. It's a familiar position...

[89th]

I guess my prediction of Biden winning in November is now in serious jeopardy.

[Mik]

I think the problem here is finding a VP candidate that makes Harris look strong. Maybe Tim Kaine again.

That costs them the Senate. They need him to win this November in VA…

Might just be one of those anti-Semitic groups throwing spaghetti at the wall.

Totally possible.

Another rumor is that Harris had a long meeting with Buttigieg today.

[Jolly]

Probably not the first long thing either has experienced...

Of course not. They both have long histories of public service in government offices. Much longer than Trump’s. Much longer than Vance’s.

[Jolly]

Remind me again...What have these marvelous public servants accomplished during their long service?

Well, Pete's been in public service 5 years (three of which were appointed, not elected), so there's that.

Define "much."

ETA: I suppose you could count his time in the military as public service, unlike the asthmatic, football-playing, lifeguard student deferred guy.

[Jolly]

Pete did oversee a 150M sewage project when he was a mayor. He paved a few streets. He then decided to jump from mayor to POTUS, falling far short. I think he decided not to run for a third term and to run for the presidency, because he couldn't be reelected mayor.

He was appointed as Transportation Secretary, mostly because he was intelligent and gay. He then proceeded to have multiple fuck-ups, including the
nonresponse to the Ohio Derailment, the massive flight outage stranding hundreds of thousands and walking away from his job on paternity leave in the middle of COVID while there were major transportation issues, from lack of trucking to ships piled up in harbors, unable to unload cargo.

[Jolly]

Now, Ax, you wanna do Kamala-lama-ding-dong?

Her record of "Public service" is probably quite long.

(I won't go down the "service" Willie Brown road because I'm pretty classy, right?)

Vice President (3 years)
Senator (4 years)
AG (6 years)
DA (7 years)

Of course, what one accomplished during that public service is another question.
