I always liked Nancy, and the more the Repubs tried to vilify her the more I liked her. One of the most effective Speakers of the House ever. I'm sure there were other party leaders also encouraging Uncle Joe to make one last sacrifice for the party, and country.
Now, speaking of running mates, I've been seeing a lot of buzz about Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro. As a popular leader of one of a handful of key swing states. Important enough that if Shapiro can guarantee a Democrat win in that state, that alone could seal the deal. Also, Shapiro on the ticket could help to counter one Republican strategy, that of trying to label Democrats as anti-semitic.
