    Assume we're getting the VP pick today or tomorrow?

    Seems like Kaine's going to be the safe pick.

    But, I'll say, with Trump doubling down on all the crazy - wouldn't going the "safe" route of just showing how crazy Trump is at the DNC stand a chance of not working. I feel like going balls to the wall and bringing Warren on might bring in a lot of people voting for Stein and the such.

    But, as much as I think like this, I still come back around to how misogynistic this country is...
    Ah, yeah, looks like she'll likely be announcing him this afternoon. I think safe is fine...I think

    Would really like Warren, but yeah, I'd be a little worried about that. I do think it would help the Sanders/Stein people, to an extent, but it would be a complete side show with that lunatic. And yeah, I am not sure folks would be down with a 2 woman ticket, as sad as that is.
    Warren's done because of the plagiarism issue.

    Polls are going to bounce around and they will be close. The country is too polarized. What's most important is ground game. Get out the vote operations are critical. I don't know how wide the gap is between the two campaigns, but all indications is WIDE.

    Who is ahead?

    No wait, let me guess... :lol:
    The only poll I have seen trump ahead is Rasmussen. He has had trump ahead for weeks and was the least accurate in 2012. We should expect a bounce in the convention. Both sides.
    I still can't imagine Trump getting close. It's gonna be a sleepy election. If I'm wrong, next stop is Jupiter.
    I think it's going to be close.

    It's because Trump is a gong show and Hillary isn't. There is a lot to say about Trump because he is so polarizing and ridiculous. He's basically a freak show, which of course creates a lot more conversation than a woman who is acting sane and mature. The fact that there has just been a 4 day long pep rally happening in the name of Trump - an ebarrassing GOP spectacle - obviously creates some chatter, lol.

    If these terror attacks keep happening Trump will keep it close ... may even overtake her. I would never under estimate what fearful people will do. And now another possible terror attack in Munich (still early), plays perfectly for trump ... but either way no one will ever convince that trump or Clinton are good choices ... just the only choices most Americans would consider.

    He is driving the story of the day every single day. He really believes that all press is good press. I don't know if it will work but it is darn sure progressing that way.

    Isn't it just so sick and disturbing how a ticket with two women on it is basically a complete non-option, while there are two men on the Republican ticket and no one bats an eye? I can't fucking believe I still live in a society like that. Pathetic.

    Nobody said it was a non option. In fact, from everything I've read, Warren is in Hilarys top 3.

    It is very widely viewed as basically a non-option actually. The idea of two women running together was the very reason everyone knew Warren wouldn't be chosen. That she was supposedly even considered on any level was only Hillary making a point (or considering what would be ideal, however unrealistic). In the interests of having a shot, there was no way Warren was going to be picked.

    The last four were Vilsack, Kaine, Perez and Booker. From a number of reports at least.

    My guess would be that if Warren isn't a finalist, it's not because she's a woman, but because she really may that good of a choice.

    I don't think she fits Clinton's style. Warren actually seems to care and show passion about the ideas that she preaches.

    So are you saying that it would be fine and dandy, business as usual, if there were two women on the ticket and that that wouldn't affect Hillary's chances?? Because I think pretty much everyone knows that isn't the case.
