Quote:Kamala Harris' vice presidential pick was leaked on Friday due to an incompetent staffer not understanding how to schedule posts on social media.

In a move that will no doubt rankle the Harris campaign, a video promoting Josh Shapiro as the choice was pushed out by the X account owned by Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker. It was immediately apparent that the post was meant to be scheduled for early next week when Harris is set to join Parker and others in the city to officially announce the VP pick.

Note: It is very likely the post gets deleted at some point once the mistake is realized. I'm embedding it so the text will still be visible even if it is.

A local reporter from Philadelphia confirmed that this is what it looks like.

Is it possible Harris now goes in a different direction out of anger at the situation? It's possible, but unlikely. As I wrote on Thursday, with Shapiro clearing his schedule for the weekend and the rally to announce the VP pick being in Philadelphia, all signs already pointed to the Pennsylvania governor.

It will be interesting to see how the pro-Hamas contingent within the Democratic Party responds over the weekend. Shapiro is a Jew and an outspoken supporter of Israel. That's not going to play well with Harris' left-wing base.

It really is isn't it.

He canceled his planned trip to the Hamptons LOL. If this is true, then the Squad and young progressives' reaction will be glorious indeed!

Oh, man...

I know the Dems are all about checkboxes but I would never have guessed thst checkbox

It would be funny that Harris goes somebody that could terrified the Republicans even more. Harris/Liz Cheney ticket.

Bye bye Michigan.

And Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Arizona and Nevada. Possibly even Georgia and North Carolina.

But MUH Penn State...

Quote:Right now, Harris is polling a bit worse in Pennsylvania than in the other key Rust Belt battlegrounds. The likely Democratic nominee trails Trump by 1.9 points there, while losing by only 1 point in Michigan and 0.7 points in Wisconsin, according to RealClearPolitics’s polling average. Close the gap in Pennsylvania, and Harris will be in striking distance of sweeping the three Midwestern swing states, which could be sufficient to win her the White House.

What’s more, Pennsylvania holds four more Electoral College votes than Michigan and nine more than Wisconsin. As long as Democrats win Pennsylvania, they can lose both of those states and still retain some other plausible routes to victory. With Pennsylvania in her corner, Harris could lose Nevada, Michigan, and Wisconsin and still get just over 270 Electoral College votes by taking Georgia and Arizona.

Given this math, it may seem like a no-brainer to pick the governor who boasts a 60 percent approval rating in the single most valuable battleground state.

But there is one flaw in this reasoning: There is virtually no evidence that picking a vice presidential candidate from any particular state actually increases a party’s support in that state.

Shapiro might nonetheless be Harris’s best option. And it’s conceivable that he could marginally improve her support in Pennsylvania. But if he did, he’d be an exception to the rule. Harris would be well-advised to give more weight to other considerations when making her selection.

You misinterpreted his post. He meant MI off the board for Dems due to the huge Muslim voting block.

Yeah, totally. We're soooooooooooo scared of her.

lolno

Has anyone ever thought about how much beter off the USA, and particularly the republican party, would be if the Cheney family had never existed?

So, Shapiro wants the Jews to win. Harris wants the Jews to be erased from the earth. Retards in the candidacy, retard voters cheering on the demise of both.

Republicans want the war to end.

No, I don’t want to hear about Kamala’s husband. She clearly don’t respect him, so why should I?

Oh. I see.

Idiots.

And anybody who believes harris is anything but a phoney, who has never done ANYTHING, is also an idiot.

She's had battleground state tour set for a while that started in Philly with the new VP pick. Wasn't that hard to figure out.

If it had been in Phoenix or Minneapolis it would have been just as telling.
