    Just a UK guy here, but she does seem like a pretty sensible swap. I know there’s some controversy around her because of her time in the police system, but I haven’t heard anything bad about her at all during her time as VP, she’s basically been off the radar (compare that shit to Pence).

    A couple good speeches here and there, some reasonable policies to offer people, and Biden’s endorsement, and you’ve got a really solid replacement.

      There was some chaos in her office in the initial days, if I recall, that may have left a bad impression. But I think that’s not too unusual and can be overcome.

        No kidding. People are acting like we need to be finely tuned to capture Republican votes to beat him, but he’s lost every election after the first and has substantial losses within his own party. There are more Democrats than Republicans, and the statewide candidates are winning in swing states. We just need to not put up a train wreck and stop alienating traditional Democratic voting blocks. People don’t actually like Trump.
