It's pretty obvious that Harris was chosen because she's from California. And we know the Democrats consider California a "swing state," right?

It's also not lost on me that in any other profession, "White men need not apply" is illegal.

She also polled behind Biden in support from blacks so she doesn’t even bring greater appeal from any particular demographic.

She polled terribly in the Democratic primaries and she is very unlikable among the Dem's base. I think Senile Joe made a great choice for conservative/mainstream America.

I strongly agree with this.

My go-to commute radio for the years she was DA in San Francisco got me familiar with her activities there, and that will be a treasure trove for examples that should repel swing voters just fine. Yeah, her Senatorial antics will add to the mix, but seriously, she was one of the most politicized, least capable DAs imaginable.

One example: gang-banger killed a cop. Immediately, as DA, she took the death penalty off the table, not because it wasn't applicable, but because as I recall the radio news reports 'I don't believe in the death penalty'. SF Chronicle "How a San Francisco cop-killing case could haunt Kamala Harris

quote:

Harris’ first major decision as San Francisco’s district attorney: deciding not to seek the death penalty for a gang member who fatally shot police Officer Isaac Espinoza in 2004.

Harris’ Democratic primary opponents probably won’t bring it up, as they all oppose the death penalty, just as Harris does. But should the California Democrat survive the primary battle, you can bet President Trump’s first TV attack ad will include some version of this riff: “As San Francisco’s district attorney, Kamala Harris refused to seek the death penalty for a gang member who killed a police officer.”

She's been on my radar ever since - I always prick up my ears when something about her crosses the transom.

It says a lot about the California I left that someone like that became a Senator. But CA's electoral votes are long gone. What matters are swing voters in swing states. The radical left is going to freak out at "DA" and the middle is going to freak out about her job performance.

I think this just tied an albatross around Sleepy Joe's neck.

Harris is black, a female, and a liberal. That seems to be all that's required for the Dems, and all her previous baggage & the fact that she's unlikeable will be ignored by the media.

She also takes the pressure off Biden, because the Dems can actually allow her to go out in public on the campaign trail, while Joe remains hidden in his basement, and gives the occasional softball interview with scripted questions.

Kamala Harris, for entertainment value?

Joe Biden’s handlers opting for Kamala Harris as his running mate is downright entertaining. It’s as though they let Trump choose Biden’s VP candidate. Harris polled near the very bottom of all the Democrats who threw their hat in the ring as presidential wannabes.

Harris is a complex “woman of color” and not in the least a victim despite her presidential debate pose as a little girl bussed to escape the segregationists of Berkeley, California. Her mother is Indian, her father Jamaican, a man who has written publicly about his ancestor who was a slave owner.

Harris is not African American and like the rest of the black women considered by Biden’s handlers, she is married to a white man. That in itself speaks well for them, that skin color is irrelevant when selecting a mate, but it won’t sit well with the virulent anti-white racism of the BLM crowd. It does not speak well for the Biden campaign that his VP candidate had to be a black woman; race was the definitive criterion, over and above character and merit.

Of all the women among consideration, Harris has the greatest dearth of character; her climb to higher office having been with the aid and comfort given to powerful men. Like Biden, she is a puppet and will gladly say and do whatever the puppet masters demand. Despite her background as a prosecutor, like Biden she will implicitly defend the looters, the anarchists, the thieves, arsonists and murderers.

“From fanaticism to barbarism is only one step.” (Denis Diderot)

The left as constituted today has brought us to the brink. Biden and Harris are both creatures of this belief that anarchy will work in their favor. Trump is the only man standing between savagery and the civilized society most of us have taken for granted at least for the last many decades.

We are reliving the age of Lincoln, when the Democrats were willing to destroy the country to preserve slavery. Our Democrats today are similarly willing to destroy the country to defeat the man who is trying to preserve the Constitution and the liberty it guaranteed for all. This election is every bit as critical as the election of 1860. Will the United States still stand as a constitutional republic or will it devolve into the socialist/communist country the left seeks to impose upon us?

From an article published in April of this year:

“Former presidential candidate and Sen. Kamala Harris (D–Calif.) said last year that she believed three women (Lucy Flores, Caitlyn Caruso, and D.J. Hill) who accused Biden of inappropriate touching or kissing. ‘I believe them and I respect them being able to tell their story and having the courage to do it,’ Harris said at an April 2, 2019, event for her presidential campaign.”

That woman has zero core values and will prostitute herself to anything to get power.

Other than in her case she garnered less than 2% of the votes in the presidential primaries and was forced to drop out. If I'm not mistaken, she was the first to drop out.

They're giving her VP now so they can get her out of the picture, they know how toxic she is and they know they won't win this coming November.

... What's problematic for Harris is that the people who have the most problems with her record are the very progressives she seeks to secure as her base.

Harris on the ticket might put California in play for the Republicans!

There's a new word floating around to describe Harris: BINO - Black In Name Only.

Indians are likely to be offended that they are tossing her heritage under the bus (her mother was Indian). Jamaicans won't want to be reminded that her father's family was one of the largest slave owning families on the island. As reported by none other than her father.

By the way, does anyone know if Stacey Abrams has conceded that Biden didn't pick her, yet?

Officer Tatum's take...



The Bernie socialists hate her too. Of course they hate Bernie for backing Biden as well...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^The comments on this video are priceless!

Tony.

Horrible Harris

Just checked out the homies at "The Breakfast Club" (TBC in the comments) to see what their reaction was. You'd think they were paid by CNN.



However, the comments indicate that they are losing their crowd They are calling "Charlemagne The God" (CTG in the comments) a sellout, which is very satisfying to me.

"Cop a feel- Biden/Harris"

Well, from Judd Nelson, I'd expect it, but that's pretty harsh language coming from Molly Ringwald.
