Joe Biden said on msnbc He was ecstatic to have a woman like Kamala on his team. She told me she'd work twice as hard as V.P then when she did ,while on willie browns staff.

I see that Biden just named Harris as VP running mate. Seemed to be the consensus of the lamestream media. Harris has shown herself to have no actual principles and a 100% opportunist - just look at her career in Kalifornia and the help that Willie Brown gave her. I have a hard time believing the dems would ever let her be president if something "happened" to biden, but perhaps she convinced them she would do anything to have the title and allow the dem elites and power brokers control her every move/statement.

No core principles and 100% opportunist is exactly why she's a perfect fit for the power brokers in the DNC. Add to that the fact she's liberal as hell and it was a no-brainer for them ... perfect for ol' Joe and it probably only took him this long to name her because the two neurons operating between his ears don't fire at the same time.

ETA: he should have chosen Tulsi Gabbard. He?d have likely sealed the deal with her on board.

Problem for the power brokers in the DNC is that while Tulsi is clearly very liberal, she's also shown herself to be independent and actually a bit of a patriot. If I had to agree to a Biden presidency but got to select the VP from the contenders presented, Tulsi would have been my pick for those two reasons but that's exactly why she's got no chance of significant power in anything the Democrat power brokers can influence.

That was Soros' choice. This should make it pretty clear that George Soros owns the DNC.

Yep, although it should have been clear 8 or 10 years ago.

Wasn't she the Attorney General - IOW, the "Top Cop" - of California? Even with her "racial qualifications" that's got to be a bit difficult for the most extreme BLM activists to stomach.

Nah, the fact she's an SJW at heart and Soros' pick will make it real easy for them to ignore that. They've never had any consistency anyway.

It does kind of make you wonder whether some of the back-room string-pullers in the party think they're going to lose this one anyway, so they're trying to position themselves to have a better shot for 2024.

I actually think the opposite: my conjecture is they believe their own bought-and-paid-for press about Trump losing to Biden by double digits and Harris is the power broker selection for when Biden has a sudden 25th Amendment issue after the inauguration. You're right about the internal fight but I believe a lot of that will be patched up by Nov 1. Once it's a matter of voting for the pragmatic ticket or "allowing" Trump to continue trying to return the country to some level of moderation (or slightly liberal compared to most of the past century), the regressive Maoists/Stalinists will fall in line and vote for the party.

Each wing seems to believe if they just hang on, sooner or later they will hold enough of a majority to force the other side out of the party without costing them the election.

Disagree. They saw what happened when Nader split the vote and learned more from it than the Republicans did from letting Clinton divide them over Bush v. Perot. They've had these showy "fights" before to make the rest of the electorate believe the very liberal wing is moderate (and it is compared to the radical extremists). This is exacerbated by the GOP push for "conservative" positions that are really centrist or slightly liberal. We let the radicals define the battlefield with their lexicon and the small group that likes to think of themselves as moderate keeps getting pushed further and further toward actual Marxism.

She was worse choice than Elizabeth Warren.
I would have deal with bengazi baggage and went with Rice. Safe and more loyal choice than Kamala.

Kamala Harris can't be that bad considering Donald Trump donated to her AG campaign twice in 2011 and 2013. While Ivanka donated to Harris in 2014.

Business move. And, the Trump family has a principal principle: business. Actual morality need not apply.

According to this research report, Kamala Harris? ancestor Hamilton Brown owned seven plantations in Jamaica in 1817. He employed more than 200 slaves whose first names are listed here.

Snopes doesn't say it's false.
(Which we know they probably would if they could)

At least he gave the slaves jobs!
