The DEI chickens have come home to roost

Biden sowed the seeds of the Democrats defeat when he declared he would pick his VP based on gender and race and not capacity and character.

If he PRETENDED to choose on the basis of identity politics, but actually selected the most qualified candidate, I'd be fine with it.

The problem with picking someone like Tulsi Gabbard is that she would outshine him at every turn, not an issue with Harris.

Unfortunately, Biden picked a running mate that made him look smart by comparison, and she also made the Mango Mussolini look like a Stable Genius (like Mr. Ed, I suppose?) as well.  I would love to have seen Trump trying to debate the Colonel.

Thus, it is on Sleepy Joe that we do not have President Gabbard coming into office.

Now it's going to take that much longer to detox from Trump.  Oh, well...

Right, the only acceptable Dem VP and candidate is one who isn’t actually a Dem. Thank you for that stunningly detailed and astute political analysis.

Revisionist history. Blame Clyburn for Harris if you need a scapegoat.

Oh man, in SC Clyburn is an icon. Great example of why term limits are needed. He's 84 years old and won 60% in the election.

He's wasted millions of fed $$ in this state and used his political power to enrich his daughter. Got her appointed to a prestigious State Board then leveraged that so-called experience to a federal job as a commissioner with the FCC. Somehow being the publisher of the family-owned newspaper made her the best candidate to be on the SC Public Service Commission. In SC those positions are appointed by a group of primarily politicians then voted on by the General Assembly. 

He crossed swords a few years ago with another politician over which candidate to support for the Mayor of the capital city. The former Mayor was to be Clyburn's successor but he supported a different person for Mayor so Clyburn is still there. Politics is nasty.
