Biden has made his choice. End of discussion.

No matter how many "what ifs" might make the rounds, it is a done deal.

One thing we can all be sure of--if Biden isn't elected, all Harris's efforts and subsequent plans will have been for nothing, so the one thing we can all count on is that her efforts to help Joe get elected will be everything she can bring to the table. If the ticket loses this time, she can kiss 2024 goodbye, so this is her make or break time. If she makes any mistakes along the way, I am supremely confident that she will only make them once. Obama, HR Clinton, and Biden himself will help her not make the same mistake twice.

What kind of VP she will be if/when she takes office is another discussion for another time. First, we need to get Joe Biden inaugurated. If we don't get that, there is no rest of the discussion.

We have laws to get enforced, judges to get confirmed, damaging environmental projects to be halted, law enforcement overhaul to be enacted, corrupt Trump administration criminals to be indicted and tried, firearms control laws to be drawn up, voting rights to be restored, and penalties enacted for trying to take them away. We get NONE of that if Biden is not declared the decisive winner in November. Time to get to it.

I agree wholeheartedly with your OP, it was very well written.

Now is the time to get busy and bring this thing home.

Lots of time to do the work, like you said, time to get to it.

I support both of them, even though Kamala was not my choice. I wanted Tammy Duckworth.

I completely agree with your post! If we don't win this election, none of the plans and hopes will come to fruition.

Time to get to it, indeed!
