I agree with you that she shouldn’t be the VP pick, and won’t boost Black turnout like people think. But objectively speaking she is an above average senator. She is great at questioning and have supported/introduce some good legislation. I don’t want her as president or VP but I wouldn’t mind seeing her in Senate leadership. I would even support her replacing Schumer as the leader.

A spotlight is going to be on Atlanta after the killing of Rayshard Brooks.

This isn't going to help her either.



As Atlanta Nears Adopting Budget, Mayor Commits To Funding Police | 90.1 FM WABE

I think she might be out of the running.

Don’t want to sidetrack the thread too much.

locally black mayors win by being pro police. Kasim reed has an entire interview about how he won by going to stay at home black moms and told them he’d stop crime. He skyrocketed up the polls.

that’s how he won hands down.


there’s a disconnect between the ppl protesting and the ppl who actually vote.

It's pretty much a lock to be Harris. It's sure as hell not going to be Elizabeth Warren even though I like her. The goal is to get a majority in the senate and Massachusetts has a republican governor. Picking Warren forfeits a senate seat to the republicans.

Harris is the most high profile black person on that list. She becomes the default choice.

Yeah KLB not cutting that budget significantly. She'll probably borrow LA's initiative and peel some off the top but that's about it.

Anyway, I agree with everyone else about Kamala being at the top right now. Let her handle police reform.

Uncertain grounds
Not enough time relative to selection for tangible change she can make happen IMO. They may get fired and arrested but that case ain’t getting resolved quickly.

Most voters dont have the attention span to keep tabs on the proceedings of the case to the point that they will be waiting on that to decide to vote for the ticket

Firing and arresting in the short term would suffice

Worst comes to worst she hits the typical rhetoric of letting the judicial branch do its job etc

Abrams is running a get out to vote campaign. It's very important.

I'm not sure why she's getting so much hate here for doing noble work.

Pretty certain that has happened in here.

I think it’s pretty fair to ask the wisdom of not seeking a statewide or national office after the governors run relative to future political aspirations.
