I'd take odds it was mentioned in at least one of the meetings he was in last week...

Garcetti looks as if he's been photoshopped into every picture.

Neither of them are really sidekicks to begin with. Bernie may have gone off the derp end with all the losing, and he may be an evil independent, but he still has a vastly democratic ideology that is needed in the senate right now. As does Warren. If Hillary plans to accomplish anything as president, I doubt she wil try to pluck anyone from Congress. Unless it's for the Swing State votes.

Purity arguments are not automatically irrelevant.

Has no clue. No endgame. No Plan B, C or D. That he claims that there is a Movement of his creation, but one he refuses to lead is chickenshit.

Or be the President's surrogate like OHJB or the President's puppetmaster like Dick Cheney. Trump wants to be CEO President, but will need a CIO, COO, CFO, Attorney and Executive Assistant. He has none of this and seems to have spent very little time building his new team or delegating the tasks. His campaign is a slap mess, like the most dysfunctional family business. Our government has enough of the cray-cray already, thvm.ETA - Hillary's VP willbe naturally impotent and denatured given that she already has her coven. Posse? Whatever.Also added linkhttp://www.thehill.com/home...

They almost all say they'd turn it down. Biden said "I'm not the guy" like 2 days before Obama announced he was the guy. It's almost the cool thing to demur, but I can't see anyone on that list actually saying no if she were to ask.

Aaaand, this is why I don't read NY Mag.

(Well, there are other reasons too...)

My new theory is that Turnip is Hillary's sekrit weapon. Now that he has proven he can totally win the presidency, he will drop out of the race, because why bother going through the whole blahblah?

If Turnip chooses either Joaquin or Julian Castro as his running mate, we will know the fix is in.

You still have to do the GOTV. You have to. Who cares if Kaine is a putz? It's the VP: he doesn't do squat.

But Virginia could elect a Republican to the Senate if he leaves, and that would Not Be Acceptable.

The only reason to choose him is to help her carry VA, which she will do anyway. So I doubt he's going to be the choice.
