I'm back in Kamala's camp!

I still love Warren because of her unrelenting heart and mind and her response "Good!" to that "bank regulator." I wish we could have both her and Kamala!

But my choice is Kamala because I think Trump is afraid of her. She is a former prosecutor and he's scared to death every time she goes after the bad guys.

My VP choice is Mayor Pete. I love that he has that nickname. It is endearing and memorable and that counts in a presidential campaign. And Trump can't scare him, either! He's smart and a really good guy. He will cause Pence to faint on the floor in a VP debate! I can't wait to see it!

I'm feeling pretty good this morning. And pretty feisty and singing Pete Seeger tunes!

Today, I am thinking of Emily Dickenson's quote "I dwell in possibility..."

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

He's lost his ability to intimidate opponents. He's in some kind of demented nightmare world. I think he is being controlled by drugs he is given to keep him from completely going off the rails.

wish he never agreed to this debate! It will be pitiful and so will he.

Warren I am sure will be a superb voice for the ticket. She'll give it her all, I am sure, even if she is not the nominee.

Pence will be in a stupor after Mayor Pete gets thru with him. I loved Pete's rejoinder "Your argument is with my Creator, not me." A gay, devout Episcopalian!

Bring it on, Trump...

And the US corporate media prefers covering attacks because it is easier than discussing actual issues.

In an actual debate, rather than what the media calls a debate, Trump would lose every time because he is ignorant of nearly every issue.

It is downright embarrassing that we haven't had a woman in that job yet. And it is depressing.

So I must go with a woman on the top of the ticket and Kamala is my choice!

I don't see it as "forcibly" but it was a negative thing. It was her way of saying "Now, Joe, we've already had this conversation and what did I say?"

I like Jill a lot. Compared to our current first lady, I shake my head...

You probably should just be Undecided, since you're... undecided.

My support was between Biden and Bullock. Once I chose Joe... that's my guy. There won't be switching.
