(11,631 posts)And I loved her responses to Maher's bullshit comparing Warren to George McGovern. She brought up her own experience winning as a progressive in conservative Orange County.
next time she'll be on Bill's panel.

(4,716 posts)Id hate to see her languishing in the suspended animation that is the Vice Presidency.

(36,095 posts)with the most important executive meetings and decisionmaking. It's not just sitting in the Senate.
She'll be traveling to meet foreign leaders, learn geopolitical politics in a way that will use her brilliant mind for the good of the US.
You can't suppose, given the past experience of Biden, that he was in suspended animation, know what I mean?
To elevate yer fast so that we have a wise decision maker after Biden would be the best thing we could do for our country, imo.
(I sent a check to her campaign back when, and was SO happy to see OC go blue.)

Hulk
(6,699 posts)She isn't afraid to speak out on issues, and she has a good handle on reality. The "perfect ingredients" to piss off the gop cult and fox propaganda network. We will be hearing a LOT about her soon. "Be afraid...be very afraid". She's not Muslim? She is Caucasian, but they will find some BS besides her ethnicity and religion to attack with a vengeance.
