Sen. @amyklobuchar has officially been asked by @JoeBiden to undergo vetting to be considered for his VP, sources tell @CBSNews.


I've always felt like she would be the pick. The SJW's who run Biden's campaign think she will appeal to 1) white women, and 2) blue-collar voters in those rust belt states that Trump flipped in 2016.

If they do pick Klobuchar, I think they have 2 problems. 1) She has all the charisma of roadkill, and 2) unless I'm mistaken, even many liberal "women of color" are going to be pissed if "2 white folkses" are on the ticket.

I hope he picks her. I want as many brown and black people as possible staying home in November. And besides, Amy Klobuchar isn't going to excite moderate women, let alone conservative women.

The Democrat Party bench is SO. DAMN. WEAK. They can't field a decent candidate for either President or Vice-President.

Don’t tell Joe this. He probably doesn’t even remember who she is, to be honest.

If she's the pick the dems are making a play for the moderate and independent vote at the expense of the socialist/progressive wing of the party.

They also won't excite their radical youth or minorities. They will get the suburban housewives though.

There are so many splinter groups in the dem party that without a solid candidate at the top of the ticket (sorry Joe) they will struggle to get all factions to turn up and vote.

In all honesty, does any one person make you nervous? Putting Michael Obama on makes me somewhat nervous.

This is 1984 all over again. Shitty Democrat candidate with a boring female VP pick. Hell, it is 2008 all over as well.


Palin was anything but boring.

Safest pick he could make. Other than apparently being brutal to work for, personality-wise, I don't know of anything the GOP could really hang around her neck that would sink that ticket.

That being said, its still a losing ticket. She brings ZERO energy to the campaign. And she's far more unlikable than Joe.

She ain’t white.
Doesn’t check a box.
No chance she is VP candidate.

If Amy is VP candidate, I’m sure I’ll be sick of the word “Midwest” by November.

^^THIS^^

Obama could get all of the various groups to the polls, even though the enthusiasm for him had waned by 2012 (by then, they had figured out he wasn't the Messiah they had been told he was). But Biden/Klobuchar? The Bernie Bots are not going to turn out for this ticket. Some black voters will turn out for Joe, but not like they would for Obama.

Plus, we've all heard that Amy Klobuchar is a jerk on steroids. The media will try to cover for her, but she's never been under the scrutiny that she will be exposed to during a general election campaign.

Biden/Klobuchar does not scare me. If a ticket that weak can win a General election, then we're done as a country, anyway.

The last Sacrificial Lamb Candidate the Dems ran was Walter Mondale. Mondale picked Geraldine Ferraro Klobuchar and Ferraro are pretty much identical VP picks except for Hair Color.


Does all this equate to....Trump = Reagan?????

At least she’s a legit, respectable VP pick.

Is she though? I do understand the hate for Abrams though; anyone compared to her is legitimate and respectable.

Amy is probably the best pick, followed by Kamala.

I'm sure y'all have some better suggestions for Joe though.
